No more PCs [Posted on 2008-06-01] I got my laptop 3 weeks ago, I no longer need to use any other computer. the computer itself is almost perfect. the screen size is great and the brightness is extremely good. I love the iSight it's great for video chatting. the keyboard is unusual but you'll get used to it by the time. the weight makes it portable and the battery can last to up to 6 hours (without wifi and bluetooth and dimmed screen) I can take it everywhere without worrying about the extra weight or battery life
I'm not even talking about Leopard (you have already heard enough about it )
warning men, you'll be tucking it next to you on bed instead of your wife ;)
WONDERFUL, BEAUTIFUL, and all around PERFECT!!!!! [Posted on 2008-06-01] This is my first mac product, and I LOVE it!!!! It is even better than I expected!!! It is so fast, powerful, sleek, thin, light, beautiful and MUCH more!! I can run Windows and Mac on here at once, and it still runs really fast. Because of Mac's great design and features I found out that most people don't even need to run Windows on their macs. it makes everything from Graphic design to just regular, check your email use. I absolutely ADORE my mac!! HIGHLY recommended for every one!!!
I loved it the first 6 months... and then... [Posted on 2008-06-05] I bought my macbook in Europe, where the price was more than one bought in the states, about $400 more. I had been a Windows user and got tired of all of Windows' Windowsness. I got my beautiful MacBook in pearly white and had a great time with the programs. No crashes!Then three months passed, of which the macbook did nothing but sit on my desk, and part of the casing chipped off. I took it in to be fixed. One month later, ANOTHER part of the casing chipped off. I had that fixed. The casing REGULARLY chips off. It now looks like an old hand me down laptop that has been banged up by trolls and it has not left my office.
Six months after purchase, it overheats. I mean overheats in one hour of use. I can no longer use it as a laptop without worrying about setting something on fire.
One year later (right now) it is propped up on blocks (coolers) with the ENTIRE casing that goes under the wrist chipped away, another piece of casing in the upper right corner chipped away and I am frantically backing up everything so that when my whole laptop dies in the next 20 minutes as I expect it to, I won't lose everything.
Basically, I believe Apple makes great ideas, put inside cheap pieces of crap.
I HATE going back to Windows, but it seems I must.
more than happy! [Posted on 2008-06-07] Although I bought this Mac as "refurbished", I can't find any problem with it. Delivered on time and the notebook is in excelent conditions!! Would recommend it to any one.
nice package, but very unreliable [Posted on 2008-07-01] I thought I'd try the alternative to Windows machines, and it's been a big disappointment. While the MacBook is sleek and sexy, it's also extremely unreliable; the operating system crashes at least every day. Apple pumps out OS updates on a regular basis, but nothing has improved this crash-prone white elephant. It crashes much more frequently than my recent Windows machines, which says a lot, since Windows is none too trustworthy.
That said, I like the physical layout, the size & weight, and the Mac applications. If only they worked all the time--or even more of the time, I'd say they have a superior product. But, unhappily, it just ain't so.
