I have never had a Mac before, this Macbook was my first Mac ever. I did not know if it would be any good but good things are always said about Macs and the fact that most of the people in my family had moved over to Macs. They helped me to get a Mac. I have only had it couple days and am very pleased with it so far. Their's only couple of things which I do not like about it which will be pointed out in this review.

I got a Macbook couple of days ago and so far am extremely impressed with my Macbook. Starting off Mac OS X Leopard is a very cool fresh change from Windows it looks fresher and newer. The ease of use with Mac is so user friendly. You have a bar at the bottom of the screen which is called the Dock. You can move this to where you want to the screen which is good. The dock can contain what ever programs that you want to and it does not matter what programs you keep on it however I would recommend that you keep the main programs on it but it's completely up to you what programs you keep on it.

When I first got my mac I was getting confused with things so small like how some of the programs work and how to empty the trash can. But after been using the Mac for couple of days I am used to it now and know how to do most things little and small because it's so userfriendly and easy to use.

Mac is not a very popular operating system and most businesses use Windows so that means that all the virus are coded for Windows and not mac which is a big advantage when you need to use your laptop for personnel information and that will help you to keep you safe and your credit card information when you shop online.

The only thing the I do not like about the Mac is the keyboard. It looks and feels cool and good to use but the keys are moving out of place somewhat.
The caps lock key is very bad I press it and type and then it takes about six seconds to put on and then I keep typing and my letters come out in the wrong caps It's so annoying.

In the end I really love my Macbook it's so user friendly and looks really good. If you want you can also run Windows on it as well as Mac OS X Leopard but I have only found myself using the Windows about twice or four times, as it's pointless as I already have a windows laptop and desktop and it's just going to get viruses on it if I run it. I would recommend anyone to get a Macbook.
