A New Mac Girl!
0 of 1 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Easy to use, insanely fast boot up speed
Cons: a bit expensive, limited gaming software
When Microsoft began their Vista rollout, I had just gotten a nice bonus and was in need of a new laptop. I went shopping, only to discover that I couldn't buy any top of the line model until the Vista rollout was done. I didn't particularly want a Vista machine...
So I decided to stop in at my local Apple store. The Mac blew me away. Mac OSX has the fastest booting speed I've ever seen. Everything is easy to use and understand, right out of the box, and as a semi professional photographer the Aperture software is amazing.
Add to that easy web surfing without worrying about 150000 viruses, insane battery life, and access to all my Windows programs through parallells, and this is an excellent machine. And I got the maximum they offer: 2nd gen dual core, 3 gigs ram, ati graphics, and a hard drive that holds everything I can possibl use.
FYI: Follow the instructions for battery charging and you will get a minimum of 2 hours of battery life, even playing high graphics programs like Warcraft.
If they had more games, I'd say "goodbye Microsoft" forever. ... -

Yeah, I bought one
Pros: Cute, small, fits in an evening bag
Cons: Expensive, seems cheaply made
Well, being the trendy one that I am, I wandered out and bought one. It has a few good points (all the ameneties, easily portable, fits in a clutch bag) but it seems kinda on the cheap side, especially for what it costs. I'm afraid if I talk too long it will fall apart. It makes funky noises when you open it, too. ...

This is my baby
6 of 12 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Easy to use for the rookiee, excellent features for the more advanced shooter.
Cons: A little small, menu hard to operate if you have nails.
This is a great camera. I do alot of my "not so professional" shoots with this. It is fast, easy to use, and fairly portable. The manual is actually in English instead of "camera jockey" and the menu is easy to use.
Ladies, watch out, though. The menu is a little hard to operate with you have nails. You can press more than one button when programming. ...
Girlfriend!
3 of 3 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulPros: Love the music
Cons: Only heard the one song
I purchased "Girlfriend" from Itunes...and can't stp playing it. The music is fun and "catchy" and the lyrics are hysterical. A lo of people have said that Avril is getting away from being herself and have called her a "sell out." People, you need to watch the video and listen to the lyrics. This is the same woman with a bit different tone. At least buy the single! ...
