I have been a Windows user for as long as I can remember, but last year I started to read up about changing to a mac. Nearly every review said how good mac's are. I finally bought this macbook in November and have been amazed at its speed and reliability. The macbook has not once crashed, starts up and shuts down in seconds unlike my pc where I am still waiting 3 mins later.
I thought that changing from a pc to a mac would be difficult, as the layout and the way you do things is different. But the difference is definitely a positive, its simple and very easy to use. You can even get a version of office, so that you can still use the familiar word, excel etc.
I notice that some of the other reviews comment that the battery does not last very long, but I find that mine last for more than 4 hours. I think that is excellent.
If you are looking to buy a new laptop I would definitely recommend that you purchase a mac, it may cost more than a windows based laptop but you will see the difference in quality as soon as you power the machine up!!
