5 out of 5 stars There's nothing like a Macbook Pro   September 30, 2008

Yes,these computers are expensive,but how are you going to own the most elegant,most capable non-generic computer available!There's a reason why this laptop is used on most TV commercials and print ads-its not covered with stickers or redesigned every four months in a desperate attempt to find something that might catch on.Add the aluminum case,Ilife apps and the best operating system on the planet and the price shrinks some.

need more time to figure out how to function it well. And more time to change the habbit for using this guy like a PC.
No more tears after loosing files by virus attack, no more system crushes(freeze twice while I editing files on photoshop after i installed Leopard )

2 out of 5 stars Looks cool but massively overpriced   August 16, 2008

This is a product that is incredibly overpriced, and simply isn't worth the money. You can buy the same hardware in a computer that is $500-$600 from dell.com Look at the inspiron or business lines to see what I mean. I got my dell computer with 4gb ram, 260gb hd, 15in screen, and a 2.6GHz penryn cpu for $200 less then this. It's simply insane to buy this unless you for some reason, have to have the apple operating system.

Apple has created a cult of people who have fallen into the trap of paying for a computer, that although works well, is one that with the same amount of money, you could get a far better computer.




4 out of 5 stars Can't help but love a Mac   July 31, 2008

I love the large screen. It makes trading stocks much easier as I can watch up to 6 charts at once all while buying and selling stocks. What's so great is that I can not only do this at home, but as long as someone else is driving I can keep trading while running errands around town or on trips. The larger screen is GREAT. The only down side is that the computer still gets hot. Not as hot as my husband's older model, but still bothersome at times. As an investment it has paid for itself already with the profits I've made.
