Advantages: Large screen, backlit keyboard, aluminium casing, unibody Disadvantages: Expensive!
...lighting (in a car perhaps) also the new LED is very bright compared to the old LCD screens. Running OS X 10.5 leopard on this machine really is a joy.
There are downsides however these include a marked decrease in performance when running windows virtually in Vmware Fusion (the black macbook is faster even with a similar 2GB RAM configuration). The performance decrease makes little sense but performs consistently badly on this macbookpro. Due to the thickness of the screen it can seem very brittle and requires a lot more care in order to prevent damage. The macbook discrete graphics adaptor appears to make very little difference to performance of any application on OS X. This may just be because I do not use it intensely enough on OS X. The macbookpro also appears to struggle with some forms of compressed videos such as DivX movies...
Advantages: excellent graphics, design with classic look Disadvantages: Price is slightly higher

Something about background and history
Apple MacBookpro notebooks are most popular available notebooks in the world with its superb graphics and eye catching design and look. Apple has always won the war of IT and computing market by launching superb product time to time. First they introduced iPod and it has change the way of music. After that in notebook line PowerBook was launched and it got huge popularity among consumers. After that in early 2006 MacBookpro series notebook has been launched and after completing almost more than two years, it is more popular notebooks in the market yet. Apple's previous notebooks featured with PowerPC processors but in MacBook they have provided powerful multicore Intel processors with Intel Core 2 Duo and these are the latest available processors till now...
Advantages: Runs any OS, Fast, Well built Disadvantages: Can get very hot
...The MacBookpro really does have the best of both worlds. In a recent firmware upgrade offered by Apple and a smaller program called Bootcamp OS X now includes BIOS support as apossed to just EFI. What does this mean? Well it means you can install other operating systems such as Windows XP (only SP2 atm) and linux distro's such as Fedora Core. Great but I wanted OS X to get way from other operating systems...Well its a welcome addition, especially to professionals, many times professionals would need a second machine to test how there work would show on a windows computer (Web designer to check compatabilty with Internet explorer for etc) and also gamers. This now allows users to have just one machine and use both OS X and XP, so no need for a 2nd computer (and XP really flys on my MacBook 1.8ghz 512mb ram!)
Enough of dual booting...
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. 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 2.5 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...
Advantages: Stunning Looks, Always Works, Brilliant Service, Vivid Screen, Good Battery Life, Well Built Disadvantages: Quite Exspensive
...Why to buy a Apple Macbook
For those of you who have ever walked into an apple store and been taken away by the good looks of there brand, lovingly gazed at electronics and told yourself i would love that but never could afford it and it seems very strange to use.
This review is about me explaining why i have purchased this laptop
As said the i have written this review to talk to you like a person, im not trying to increase apples sales or help flog you something you don't want. I am writing this as if you were a friend talking over coffee.
Personal Experience
I have had pcs and laptops in the past, normally working fine but with no special qualities. I then decided to save up more a mac laptop, for studying at university as a design student. I loved carrying round my new laptop and using it in public places call me...
Advantages: portable, runs very fast, large storage with TimeMachine application for backing up your work Disadvantages: some problems with using Safari, though this may be due to the wireless network I am using, costs!
...In my opinion, the Apple MacbookPro is an ideal laptop. As a student, I find that it meets all my needs - I can store plenty of music, photos etc even though I bought the cheapest one with the smallest memory.
The system operates very fast and comes with both Firefox and Safari.
My only criticism is that it only comes with textedit and so you have to buy iWorks for around £65. However, despite this it is good value for money and I don't regret spending my 2 years worth of part-time earnings on it!
It has everything I want from a laptop and is ideally portable and good for watching films despite the smaller screen size. Another feature I particularly liked was that it has a light up keyboard for when you are in darker rooms - you can adjust the brightness of the keyboard the same as you can for the screen. Looks very impressive!
It is...
Advantages: No virus, fast and powerful, well designed, great camera, great microphone, great sound Disadvantages: Not for everyone, expensive but worth it
...This is a POWERFUL SEXY STYLISH with great performance notebook.
out of 10 I'd give it 11! the laptop has everything you need and have always wanted.
It has built-in web camera outstanding quality, amazing sound quality, fantastic built-in microphone, you can chat using skype ichat or any other messenger that allows you to to voice chat and you will not hear your voice on your friends computer, I mean if you are both chatting without headphones don't worry the computer will know when you are talking and when the pther person is talking without interrupt it.
The keyboard is a must! it turns the light on when in poor light conditions automatically.
The keyboard has been cut like the previous macbook 13" its curved to perfectly fit fingers, smooth typing. The keyboard is also illuminated, so when you're in low-light settings, so...
Advantages: Most points are advantages, excellent laptop!! Disadvantages: can be difficult with compatibility when dowloading, doesn't work with 4OD
...I would recommend this product to anybody looking for a laptop. It's very easy to use, even for somebody who would describe themselves as computer illiterate. It's suitable for both personal and professional uses and the small details such as the built-in camera and the iphoto application aswell as the remote that comes with it which can be used for power point presentations etc. make the Apple MacbookPro stand out amongst other brands. It has bluetooth for easy connection with your mobile phone which can come in handy, regular update alerts which have been suprisingly useful. The safari internet server is very well set out and easy to use. As a student with lots of essays to write and passages and reports to download from the internet, it was important to me for my laptop to have a system that would allow this to be both easy...
Advantages: Powerful Core 2 Duo processor, large screen Disadvantages: Chunky, not really value for money
...The Macbookpro is basically a standard increase on your average Macbook, it offers a souped-up Core 2 Duo processer running at 2.33 Ghz, a definite level up from the older versions 2 Ghz running speed. There is more hard drive there, and more RAM for your money.
But is it completely necessary to pay a substantial amount more than the average Macbook? I had one of these installed in my household not long ago, and I must say it was impressive and powerful, and if it were a PC I would say it would make a good online gaming high spec laptop, but its not, its a Mac and therefore its a bit odd to have all this power for something that is internationally recognised as a better office/business tool than a PC but nowhere near as accomplished on the gaming front. Having said that it does come with all the regular tools of a macbook, and yes it...

General comments: I wanted to upgrade my old Titanium Powerbook (bought in 2001) and so took a flight to London to personally handle the latest MacBookPro 17". I walked into the shop in Regent Street with £3000 cash - discovered the MBP was in my eyes rubbish, so came home again without wasting my money. I had seen the Macbook 13" black book and was impressed since it was compact and had most of the features of the MBP. Hence at the start of December 2007 I walked into a shop in France and bought it - you can only go for so long trying to use hardware which is seven years old when working in the hi-tech world. I made the compromise and bought this Macbook and was able to persuade Monsieur Lawrence of Apple Service in France to exchange the French keyboard for a QWERTY one free of charge. He was also kind enough to send me the latest "Leopard...
