A hardware dongle for Final Cut Pro

Date of Review:  Sep 20, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you need to run a Mac application, this is your least expensive laptop. Otherwise I'd have bought an IBM.
Review: I purchased two laptops almost simultaneously -- this MacBook for using Final Cut, and a Thinkpad T60 for everything else. Though OS-X is supposedly a hugely stable operating system, I find it is as buggy and prone to crashing as anything else I've...

MacBook: Another Reason Why I HATE Apple.

Date of Review:  Nov 26, 2006
The Bottom Line: Run away. Run far, far away.
Review: I hate Macs. I really, really do. Now, before you go judging this review before you even read it, please know that I didn't go into owning this computer, the Apple MacBook Mac Notebook, with a bad attitude. Granted, I would have MUCH preferred to...

If this doesn't convert PC users, what will???

Date of Review:  Nov 25, 2007
The Bottom Line: Buy a mac, once you learn how to use one you'll never go back.
Review: Yes, I'm a long time Mac lover. This is my 4th & 5th mac (yes, I loved it so much I bought a second so I didn't have to share with my kids). (And by the way, I still own 3 of those 5 macs, I only sold the other 2 because I felt guilty owning 5...

PC Convert Loves Mac!

Date of Review:  Aug 17, 2007
The Bottom Line: We will never own a PC again. We have wholeheartedly converted to Macintosh and highly recommend it over every other system out there.
Review: This was our first Mac, our first laptop and our first stress-free computer experience. We learned about Mac after our fourth PC crashed....yet again. The Mac takes some getting used to, however it is very easy to adapt to and is more than worth the...

Pretty cool laptop, but takes A LOT of getting used to.

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2007
The Bottom Line: I would recommend the MacBook if you have the patients to learn the system.
Review: If you are considering purchasing your first Mac, then you should be aware that it takes a whole lot of getting used to. This computer is very very diffrerent from Windows and it can be very tricky to use. Specifically, MacBook screens are a...

Cheap Price, Cheap Parts

Date of Review:  Sep 5, 2006
The Bottom Line: Great product, but get the warranty in case of faulty parts.
Review: I bought my MacBook for school, and as such I went though the local bookstore to buy my computer. Thankfully, I picked a package that came equipped with a 3 year warranty, because while I love my MacBook, it has broken several times. Each time, it...

Great Machine - Questionable Build Quality

Date of Review:  Aug 25, 2006
Review: The MacBook is an amazing piece of technology. Wonderful design that is both beautiful to look at and very functional. The ability to run either OS X or Windows makes this a very versatile laptop. Unfortunately, mine arrived with a dead DVD drive...

I will never eat an apple again

Date of Review:  Sep 5, 2006
Review: I was encouraged (conned?) into buying a Mac from several colleagues. Within about 11 minutes, I severely regretted the decision. None of the software installed smoothly, the shortcut keys worked sporadically, and it gets *extremely* hot... it's the...

College and Professionals Should Test Drive First

Date of Review:  Sep 17, 2006
The Bottom Line: Too many promises with not a lot of punch. Mac should stay pure and not become a hybrid.
Review: I was very excited about buying the Apple MacBook for myself. It would have been a good alternative to always working at home on my desktop (Apple G5 iMac, which I love!). But when my brother, who is in college, needed a new laptop for school I came...
