Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Apple MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.5 GHz - 17" TFT
Advantages: Fast, only a few viruses, big screen Disadvantages: Doesnt run all PC apps

Advantages: nice screen, good battery life, fast specs Disadvantages: large size (price?)
Apple mac-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.

The laptops technical specs include a very fast 2.5 ghz 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 of the best laptops to go for
all the best
If you found this rating helpful, please give it an EXEPTIONAL rating ...
