    5 Stars I am so glad I picked the Apple of the laptop tree! 18/04/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great looks, No more viruses!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Hassle to let people "have a go"

    Thank you so much Apple! I love my laptop! I shall now tell you why everyone loves Apple laptops- from a person who was not a big Apple fan in the first place- until now! I was lucky my first cousin owns a top of the range Apple Ipad and the other a top of the range Apple Imac- they were the ones to urge me to try out Apple before getting a Windows! Speed; The speed of this laptop is amazing! Honestly whatever you thought was fast think this to be at least twice as fast! The reason for this speed is the 2.4 Hz processor. In a Windows PC this would not be that impressive- however Apple software ... more

    Advantages Advantages The best general use laptops out there

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The price is too high

    There are a lot of Macbook's on here, but I'm pretty sure this is the one I've just bought. I'll start off by telling you why I bought it. Essentially, I owned the standard white 13" Macbook and then managed to break it beyond repair. My insurance coughed up the dough and I found myself in the market for a new laptop. Looking at the specs of my old laptop and then the price tag to get a new one (£867 at the time of writing but slightly cheaper for students such as myself), I figured that I could get a more powerful laptop for around £300 less. I began to look around at different laptops which ... more

    Advantages Advantages A laptop that works!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Expensive

    When buying a ruler, we expect it work. We don't expect to consequently try to draw a straight line with it across the page, and instead produce a wobbly, curvy sort of thing. We expect our ruler to work. Why then, do people flock to the shops to buy computers, and then put up with them when they freeze, malfunction, delete parts of documents? This sort of accepting attitute has got to change. After all we pay a lot for these glorified gadgets, and so in return we should be getting something that works. Well in the case of the MacBook Pro, I can assure you that is exactly what you're getting ... more

    5 Stars Great Laptop 15/07/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great Speed, Great Camera, Everything is Great.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The Price, Not every program is compatible with the Mac

    In my opinion, I think that the MacBook Pro is an extremely useful appliance and in fact it's what I'm typing on right now. It has so many great features, and not to mention that on the internet, it has blazing fast speeds that no other computer or laptop i have seen can beat. Another thing about the MacBook pro is its good comfort and portability, it even comes with a light up keyboard. Aside from all of the great features and what not, the look of the MacBook Pro is so sleek, and even on the inside of it captures picture so well, the desktop looks beautiful. I know it is very highly priced ... more

    4 Stars Amazing Product! 22/07/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great looking, reliable, no anti virus software needed, easy to use, speedy, produces good work

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Pretty expensive, you might want to buy some other software such as Microsoft word

    I own a macbook pro (13.3 inches) and am extremely happy with it. It is sleek, great looking and runs well. I love that is rarely freezes, comes with some free software and is very quick to use. There are so many cool little tricks on the mac like swiping 4 fingers up on the trackpad to hide windows and things like that which just make you love your laptop. This laptop is very reliable and will last a many years. In the end I would say it is a good product, even though expensive. The high expense will offset in the end because this computer will last you. I am positive you will be satisfied. I ... more

    3 Stars Don't believe the hype Review with images 23/07/2011

    Advantages Advantages great operating system

    Disadvantages Disadvantages expensive, not cheap for replacement components, poor performance

    A lot of people talk about how great macbook pro's are. I have one and their average in my opinion. It all depends on what you want to use it for. If you want something that will keep your organised and allow you to surf the web, watch films and perform the most remedial tasks then i'd say go for it. But for that £1000+ price tag you often wonder what your paying for. Like most apple products you pay for the name and the look; nothing more than a fashion statement at the best of times. The battery life is absolutely terrible and it heats up very quickly if you use it a lot. Also expect to go ... more

    5 Stars Mac Book Pro 13 in 11/07/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages speed setup clarity battery life

    Disadvantages Disadvantages dents fairly easy on the edges since the frame is aluminum

    I've had my mac book for a few months now and over all it works great. I was a Pc user but now i will never go back. Macs are faster and the clarity and setup is 10 times better. The keyboard controls for itunes and others to adjust the brightest make it fast and easy to do little tweaks. Every month there are some minor malfunctions for example, Safari wont start up or the pause and mute are a little bit laggy. These problems are almost all the time fixed by just restarting the computer. The overall design is great the track pad is one of my favorite things on the mac. Its slick and very easy ... more
