    MacBook- Intel Core 2 Duo

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 19, 2007 | 6 out of 7 found this Apple MacBook review helpful

    Pros: Fast, Reliable, and awsome keyboard (spaced nicely)

    Cons: Edging around computer

    I've been using PC's as long as I can remember, and I didn't like the things I heard about Windows Vista. I decided that instead I would try an Apple b/c of all the features it has on it. The software it comes with (i.e. iLife...) is very user friendly, and fun to work with. You can record music in Garageband, and it sounds professionally done, which is the major reason why I got this one. The other software included is iPhoto, iDVD, iCal, iMovieHD, and iWeb. There are a few others, but all in all it's pretty well made. I thought at first it would be really hard to get used to, but it really is user friendly like Apple states. If you're looking for a gaming computer, then this computer is not for you. You will have to step it up and by the less compact MacBook Pro. Between the two there is not much of a difference. A few features that the Pro model has and the regular doesn't is the keyboard is a bit different on it. It is regularly spaced out like a normal keyboard, and the keys light up. Also, the screen dims itself. The other major differences are just memory, hard drive space, screen size, and the graphics card. In my opinion I would say that the MacBook is the way to go as long as you don't plan on playing any games. Also, the only difference between the black 2ghz model and the white 13" model is that the hard drive on the white model is 80gb whereas the black one is 120, so basically you're paying for the color and the larger hard drive. I've also read alot of reviews on this laptop as well, and it has been getting better ratings than the Pro models anyway Read more Less

    Loved It

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 10, 2007 | 3 out of 5 found this Apple MacBook review helpful

    Pros: Apple

    Cons: Apple

    I will never forget the first day that we met. I know we had seen each other in passing. But I am talking that first day that we made a connection. It was a hot summers day in May, I remember you were wearing white. You loved white, I swear you wore ...it everyday. I turned you on and you changed my life. My friends were always jealous of you and your good looks. Not only were you fetching but you added fun to an area of my life that had never known fun before, it was as refreshing as lemonade on a hot summers day. Even though there was always your obvious outside attraction, but it’s the inside that counts, other people are just drawn to your simplicity and all that you have to offer. I am not trying to name drop here, but you have such influential friends like Bono and John Mayer to list a few. They say something’s come into your life for a season and others come in and you will never be the same again. You were that for me Apple Computer. You were my best companion and you changed my life. We have so many memories that we share that I don’t even know where to begin. For so many years you have held my life in your hands. Your Automator used to wake me up to my favorite playlist every morning and then I would drink a cup of coffee with you while we began the day’s work. If you can even call it work, you made my life so much easier. You have always been so reliable and you never got sick. Everyday you always looked so sharp. What I really want to know is how you have stayed so skinny with all that you consumed. I love how your dashboard kept everything I needed from a dictionary to metronome at the push of a button. You’re always selfless, taking time out of your schedule when you showed me how to make my own widget. Mail allowed me to always receive my email as they came in. It kept me organized with note taking in Pages and even managed my to do’s alongside my events in iCal. I would never have remembered anything without that. It was so nice that I could access it anywhere I needed. All the memories you used to allow me to share with the Mail stationary templates. They were even PC compatible, you were always thinking of others. Speaking of PCs, remember how inferior they always felt to your superior operating systems? So they decided to create Vista modeled after you. It still didn’t compare, they even demoed it on a Mac. That sure was embarrassing for them. I remember when on iChat with Michelle she really thought I was on the beach, when I was using the virtual backgrounds to make it look like I was really there. For her sake I wish we could say that it only happened once. When iChat it allowed simultaneous control of a single Mac desktop between Kristen and I, that really helped us plan that trip out to SG. That was a blast. I am so glad you are small enough that I was able to take you with me were ever I went. Then I thought my memories were gone when I deleted all my photos from iPhoto, all 3,084 of them. Once again you saved me thanks to your Time Machine with one swoop you recovered them all. Then iChat allowed me to share iPhoto snap shops and do live video feeds of keynote addresses. Ok I know, I didn’t do any keynotes but my friends really did like looking at my vacation photo’s over it. Oh I can’t forget Garage Band. Can you believe some of the tracks that I recorded on it, now that’s what I call a rough cut. But it was the stuff we recorded on that program that ended up getting us signed. I am eternally grateful. iMovie & iDVD is what gave the initial life to S&M Productions, Stephanie & Michelle Productions that is. Those have really been some fun projects. With all that’s going on, Spaces has really helped me organize all my projects. .Mac syncing has really by keeping my settings, not matter where I am. Always being on the go, it really helps me feel at home if I am somewhere else for it to feel that I am on my own computer. My favorite times are the late nights we would spe Read more Less

    Great Laptop

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 17, 2007 | 1 out of 1 found this Apple MacBook review helpful

    Pros: fast, great graphics, lots of space, lots of entertainment features

    Cons: crappy instruction manual

    The moment I saw this laptop I knew I wanted it. I didn't even care about the price. It was totally worth it. I love my mac. The only problem I have is that the instruction manual is really vague and not at all helpful, you generally have to ...guess and play trial and error. Other than that its wonderful and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Read more Less

    Amazing Computer

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 2, 2007 | 1 out of 1 found this Apple MacBook review helpful

    Pros: Beautiful design, great features, mac os x, super fast processor, affordable.

    Cons: Integrated graphics card, battery.

    I purchased this computer about a month ago, and it is probably one of my smartest purchases. The computer is beauftiful and extremely fast. The operating system is a great step up from windows, both xp and vista. The only hinderance is the graphics ...card, which is an integrated itel gpu. Nevertheless, I am not an avid computer gamer, and the speed and features of this remarkable product more than make up for the gpu. Amazing, and I recommend it to everyone. Read more Less

    MacBook Review

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 19, 2007 | 1 out of 1 found this Apple MacBook review helpful

    Pros: Everything about it. The built in webcam is fantastic for keeping in touch with people, the battery life is great, comfertable keyboard, runs my windows programs.

    Cons: It gets pretty toasty on my lap.

    I, like many just got tired of Windows freezing and just the unreliability of the operating system. So i decided, what the heck, ill leap out there and get a Mac. And i really do love it. The speed is amazing, and the graphics oh my god. It runs smoo...thly with any program that i use. Read more Less

    Apple Macbook

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 7, 2007

    Pros: easy to use, many great features, lots of fun stuff to play around with

    Cons: battery tends to burn pretty quickly, built in wireless could have more range

    I've had this laptop for almost a year now, and i absolutely love it. Aside from using apple computers in the recording studio at school, the operating system was fairly new to me. It was an easy transition over from windows to mac, and once I go...t used to it, windows just can't compete with an apple computer. So many useful tools already built in, and a lot of cool features to play with. The only downfall of this laptop is that the price may cause people to look elsewhere, but in reality it is worth every penny. Read more Less

    Best Laptop for a music lover

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 10, 2007

    Pros: Fast, easy, fun, mobile, stylish.

    Cons: Expensive, easily gets dirty, not very loud.

    Well first of all this is a great laptop its stylish and fun i love showing it off. Some of the best things about it are its camera that is built in to the top of the screen and the integrated microphone it make it easy for me to post videos on youtu...be or make a quick music video to mess around with on garageband or ivideo each of which come with the laptop. Some of the cons are that its speakers are painfully quite and it tends to get very hot. Don't let this deter you though this is a great choice for any one who wants a fun laptop. The pros far outweigh the cons for this computer in any situation. Its a little tough on the wallet though at almost $2,000 its a little steep for an entry level laptop. Read more Less

    Better than any other regular laptop

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 16, 2007

    Pros: nice and simple design, battery life, support

    Cons: price

    Once I got MacBook I didn't have the urge to switch on my desktop PC with windows anymore. Why? Answer is simple, MacBook is just awesome! Design is excellent, there's no cuter laptop. It's powerful! considering it's just laptop. It&#...39;s functional! And you can rely on your macbook. It's very solid and can take up some minor damage. Display is perfect, there's really nothing to complain about, but price. Some normal laptops with windows are cheaper yet they might be more powerful. But I still prefer MacBook as it was worth my money even though it is not that powerful. Read more Less
