Apple MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.5 GHz - 17" TFT

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...

Review of Apple MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.5 GHz - 17" TFT

apple mac

Advantages: speed ,power,Design
Disadvantages: value for money

...I had been using a 24in 2.16 iMac Core 2 Duo for about 5 months and it just wasn't up to par with the work I was doing. I'm a graphic designer who needs to have lots of design applications running at the same time and the iMac just didn't have enough memory or processing power. After months suffering through Photoshop moving like a snail, I knew I had to upgrade to a Mac Pro but wanted to wait until the new Harpertown/Penryn processors were released. As soon as Apple released the updated Mac Pro in January, I picked one up. After using the iMac for so long, the Mac Pro was like a breath of fresh air. This machine is crazy fast. I loaded 10 GB of RAM into it and can pretty much have all my design apps open (mainly CS3) as well as run Parallels at the same time. I could never do this with the iMac. Overall, I'd recommend the Mac Pro to...

Apple's Powerful MacBook

Advantages: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2GHz processor, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, i-Life & i-Sight
Disadvantages: None

...The Apple MacBook MB062B/B is executively designed for a mobile lifestyle with Intel Core 2 Duo processors, 1GB of memory, and large hard drive. It also has a number of innovative features, including a built-in iSight camera for 1 to 1 or group video chat on the go, iLife '08, Front Row, a nice 13inch widescreen display and supports dual displays. I have used Mac Notebooks before and have to say this is the most advanced and affordable MacBook. It gives you power and mobility, neatily packed into a beautiful compact design. The MacBook comes in 2 colour, white and black, I prefer the white being Apple's trade mark colour. The MacBook will keep you glued to it as you wont need anything else courtesy of built-in Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and AirPort Extreme 802.11 which gives you up to five times the performance and twice the range of previous...

One of the latest Apple Mac products - equipment and support

Advantages: Superb screen, superior speakers, huge capacity, multiplicity of functions, brilliant photo suite
Disadvantages: A new 'language' to learn and company support not as good as one would expect.

...We bought the Apple Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard recently. This cost a little under £1K from PC World (there are other outlets). The main reason why we bought this product is that we wanted to get away from the problems of 'Vista' and other issues with Microsoft Windows. This is a superb computer. It has a magnificent 24" flat screen and is very well constructed. It has a very impressive capacity and since we bought it in August it has run very well indeed. I would have rated it with 5 stars were it not for the support being less impressive than the product. Being a 'petrolhead' I compare the service with what I would expect from a vehicle dealership, and in the case of Mac it does not match up all that well. You get 90 days free telephone consultation when you buy the product, but this is not available at weekends or late in the evening...

Apple Power Mac G4 Reveiw

Advantages: Cheap, Runs OS X, Looks nice
Disadvantages: Noisy, Not That Fast

...Apple are the best makers of computers and OS but if like me you dont have much money then the G4 is probably the one to go for, as it has all the greatness of apple mac at a much lower price. I got my G4 off of ebay for a very reasonable price about 5-6 months ago and it was a great change from my old dell PC which was painfuly slow and overloaded. External Issues: The G4 Quicksilver is a very sexy and nice looking tower computer although some people dont like the sliver effect i think it makes it look sleek and proffesional, also some people dont like the fact that it is finished in plastic but i think this mackes it look nice and shiny. The clear handles are another nice effect as they distort any thing on the other side of them. One of the bad things about the G4 is that it is by no means silent and if you keep the original...

Apple IPhone

Advantages: read Opp
Disadvantages: Read Opp

...Ok well im going to be giving a review on the Apple IPhone, ive had it for about two months now, and feel its about appropriate time to give my views on the product, as ive had enough time to play around and get use to it. The IPhone was given to me as a present, a few months back, I was at first not sure whether I wanted the IPhone, it seemed too expensive and full of applications and tools I really didn't want. I already had an Ipod and a Phone. so my thinking was why would I in principle want to get another one. However, being the kind person I am I accepted the gift and went to the shops with my dad were we purchased the phone. Now before you buy your phone you must decide whether you want to purchase the 8GB phone of the 16GB phone. What's the difference, well the smaller one only costs £269, whilst opting for the larger one will...

Apple MacBook Core 2 Duo 13.3" - I'm a convert

Advantages: Stylish, flexible, super fast startup
Disadvantages: Pricey compared to a PC

...I got my MacBook a month ago and, despite having been a heavy PC user for the last 20+ years, I'm a convert. It's just great. I got it because of all the good stories I'd heard about them; usability, security, availabiity of applications and it's stylish looking too, not like the lumpy almost invariably black Windows laptops out there. It's not cheap at £700 you can get a lot of PC for that, but I really like my Mac, so I'm not going to linger on that side of things. The 13" screen is crystal clear, the keyboard feels nice and it doesn't take long to get used to the trackpad style mouse. It's super fast to boot up and shut down, less than 30 seconds from 'off' and probably less than 5 from 'sleep' mode. That's stunning compared to my other machines that can take anything from 5 to 20 minutes to do the same. It was initially a bit...

Review of Apple MacBook Air

  The Apple Of My i

Advantages: Full Internet, Massive storage, Great design, Superb battery life.
Disadvantages: The Megapixel of the camera is put to shame by other phones available.

...I had been waiting for this day for some time. My 18 month contract with T-Mobile is coming up for renewal next week, however having had problems gaining reception in my area I'd opted to look elsewhere for a new contract. A few weeks back my problems were solved when I was shopping around to try and find the best mobile contract, and discovered that O2 would be stocking the Apple iPhone as of November the 9th. Not only was I looking for a new mobile contract, but also a replacement MP3 player so the Apple iPhone seemed ideal. I made plans to purchase the iPhone and on the evening of release made my way down to the nearest O2 store upon finishing work, bagging myself my very own iPhone at a price of £269. Although the price did seem a little steep, especially considering that I would be paying out a further £35 a month for the contract...

Apple Mac Mini 1.83 Ghz

Advantages: Small and good value
Disadvantages: not as powerful as most other Macs

...I am using this right now. it is a really good product for those who are trying out OS X for the first time. I use it for typing up work and surfing the net, and the occasional DVD. Do not buy it if you want a gaming machine as with an Intel GMA 950 graphics card with 64 MB will not handle games, moreover this comes from the memory as it is integrated (to save space of course) it is very very small and good for a no frills first time Mac or for anyone who is sick of Vista and wants to give something else a try before going over to Linux (nothing wrong with it though). It may not come with a display or a mouse or a keyboard it does come with an apple remote, which is very useful, it does not work on all the online media players (does work with quick time and various things such as itunes. As well as the remote it comes with a DVI to VGA...
