Before I begin, I warn you that I have a lot to say. I will try to be succinct (as always), but there's a very good chance I'll fail. For your information, I am writing this review on my shiny new Mac! I should also warn you that I have exams starting on May 28th, and it's now May 15th (though frankly this will take several days to write!). I really have no idea when I'll actually upload it - if it's now August, I do apologise! MacBook Pro (MBP) I've always had PCs, so I've never known anything other than Windows.

This review is being written by my son as this particular mac 'baby' is his new toy. ( I have his old one!). I bought this macbook as a replacement for my 6 month old Black Macbook. Initially i was very impressed with the purchase. There is a marked improvement in functionailty over the standard macbook. The screen is a very nice size making it far more usable at a desk rather than on your lap.
