Advantages: nice screen, good battery life, fast specs Disadvantages: large size (price?)
...Applemac-books, where to start...
ok, so to start,
it is an apple, that means you get a solid quality product and on the whole very good customer are.
this particualar apple is deffinatly more suited to being a media center than other laptops. At first glance you realise that it is a fairly large laptop, this allows for a big screen, which being an apple ffers clear vivid displays, unfortunatly the big screen increases the overal size and also uses more battery, however, the 4.5 hour yattery is still very good for an entertainment laptop.
The laptops technical specs include a very fast 2.5ghz dual core proccesor which is very fast, the dual core allows it to tackle multiple tasks quicly as well as increasing the overall speed of the laptop.
The price is quite steep however, but i believe, if given the money, it is probably one...

Advantages: Excellent Design, Light Weight, Trendy, Good Speed Disadvantages: Difficult to use at first by a Windows XP user
...I searched all over the net to find a laptop. My primary criteria was the look of one. I didnt find anything better than an AppleMacBookPro and went ahead and asked my dad to buy it for me. Only, when I got the laptop I realised that the operating system was not Windows. I found it very tough and frustrating to use the machine for a long while for I was used to WIndows and had never used the Mac operating system. However, I slowly started getting a hang of the system. After a while, I got used to the system and liked it a lot. I recently bought a new laptop, which is Sony TX-17 and now I find it difficult to use Windows. Having used both I find Apple's operating system better than Windows. The programs are more user friendly. As for the design, I dont think anything can beat Apple, they are so stylish and cool. My next laptop is going...

Advantages: pure mac power with a good screen Disadvantages: software is too hard to get at times
...Powered by a 2.0 dual-core Intel engine. Up to five times the speed of the PowerBook G4.
MacBookPro is built with intel CoreDuo - which packs the power of two processors (up to 2.16GHz) inside a single chip. high performance graphics what i have come to expect from my Mac's. From the box It's the first Mac notebook with PCI Express, a Serial ATA hard drive, and the ATI Mobility Radeon.
Setup was easy my first mac that i could use without the problems of setting. Installing my printer was a breeze and the sound and clear visibility of the screen is much better then my previous mac. This is a ideal mac for people who generally want ease of use, and a great laptop from apple in general. Would suit a student who needs macs pure music or graphics capability Mac's rule in that category...
