Well, where do i start.

I've had a variety of Macs and PCs over the last 10/15 years and i think i have now settled on Macs. There always used to be the problem of compatibility and now that no longer exists, then there was the problem of speed and that no longer exits, then the problem of availability of programs - well as you can guess that no longer exists.

I'm writing this review on my mac now and i'm just so happy doing so. The only thing i could wish for is a click-pad mouse but you get over that quickly.

Everyday i learn something new about this mac and what i can do with it, it's still amazing 6 months after i bought it.

This isn't the computer to buy if you want to do graphic design or play high memory games, you'd need to get the macbook pro for that. If you want to use this as a general home computer for playing games and surfing the internet then, buy this now.

Make sure you know what you want to use the computer for before you buy it, just so you get the spec right for your needs.

I love the ease in putting this computer into a network, i have no idea about computers but i managed to connect this to my existing home network (PC based) with extreme ease. Macs are computers for idiots, you just can't go wrong and if you do know a lot about computers you'll get even more out of it.

The potential to beautify your mac are there to. Loads of accessories out there, make sure you get a good case for it. You don't want a broken mac in your hands.

I would say it might be worth waiting for the Air Mac to come down in price but it this is the MacBook you want, buy it!

Well done Steve Jobs!
