User Opinions
*This is my umpteenth Mac and as usual, it's a very satisfying purchase. Although the styling of this laptop, with the dark hinge and keyboard isn't quite my cup of tea (and is a matter of taste), this machine is far and away the most solidly built. It feels like it would stop a bullet, and it probably could. It's reassuring rigidity gives it a feeling of quality and sturdiness second to none. For someone who man handles his laptop all day every day, this is very important.
*I just picked one of these up and I love it. I have read reviews complaining that Apple did not try to cram an i5 or larger CPU into this 13 inch machine. True, the chose to use the Core 2 Duo but that's not all bad. This is a stable, cool running, capable processor. The machine now includes 4 G of ram and a much improved video card from the previous version. I use this mostly for work where stability, battery life, portability, and longevity are the most important things to me.
*Well I'm writing this review out of my new Macbook pro and it is wonderful. I'm still playing with it getting more used to it and I must say its alot simpler than PC in some many aspects. firstly, this is my first mac ever. I've been having a wonderful experience with it and sleepless nights. well, the battery is fantastic especially after my first battery calibration. its very easy to get used to. It's very fast also. I really recommend this to anyone.
