Apple MacBook

Hello everyone and welcome to this review. I bought this lovely laptop around 7 months ago. I bought it from Apple at the rather hefty price of £930! Ahhhh, allot I know but I still cannot decide if its been worth the money. When My lovely Apple Macbook dropped on the doormat I was over the moon. It was in a stunning white very classy looking box with a picture of my dream machine on the front:) Inside the box everything was extremely well wrapped, it was all in different sections. Inside was: The laptop A charger An ethernet cable And all of the instructions:) I couldn't help but notice the ... more

I've owned this laptop for a year and a half now and it is easily the most versatile, reliable and best looking laptop I have ever used. I would place most of the credit on the operating system- Mac OS X Leopard. After using Vista for a year on a £800 hp laptop, I was willing to accept anything to replace it. That was when I was introduced to the Mac, something I had never used before and consequently was extremely reluctant over- would my files be compatible? What about my music? Will my standard Netgear WiFi work with it? As many people say, once you go Mac, you'll never go back. With this ... more

After owning a Powerbook G4 previously, I needed a replacement - I looked around and considered buying a Sony Vaio - but ended up back with Apple and purchased the MacBook Core 2 Duo with Intel processor. I went for the smallest one of the 3 - only because it was purely for home use. I only use it for surfing the internet, downloading pictures and music so I did not need to much memory. Plus I have an external hardrive should I need to free up space. The software you get with a Mac is excellent -everything is much more 'friendly' compared to Microsoft - OK, Vista has arrived - but when you ... more

I've had my Macbook for about 5 months now. My previous PC was a large self built gaming machine. I had been running Vista on the machine and was quite disappointed with the lack of progress on from Windows XP. I bought the Macbook after seeing a demo online. I was just blown away at how fast it is. In reality it has proven to be as fast as expected. Boot times are very quick. I can be surfing the net in roughly 30 seconds after powering up. Applications launch quickly and there is rarely any noticeable lag when performing various tasks. I can't fault the hardware. It's appearance is nice and ... more

I have updated this review with a lot of extra detail This Macbook looks great and quite different and is better made than many other machines with similar specifications. In white, which is the standard/cheaper option it looks very different from your average laptop, although is prone to getting dirty fingerprints around the keyboard, which ruins the effect a little, unless you are careful. If you prefer Mac OSX rather than a Windows operating system I would certainly recommend it. I am a fan of unix, which is the underlying operating system for all Macs (i.e. the layer of software below Mac ... more
