Pros: Intel chip; super fast speed; sexy, sleek look; it's all mine
Cons: You're kidding, right?

It was bound to happen sooner or later. I promised myself that one day I will get a new laptop, and boy did I ever need one. Since 2001 I've been using my trusty iBook. I remember the first day I got it and marveled at the craftsmanship of this ...

Pros: Great design and performance, intuitive OS, generous applications, support for Windows games!
Cons: Expensive. Expect to pay for quality, but it is worth it!

Let me just say that this is the first laptop I have purchased since my trusty 366Mhz iBook and all I can say is WOW! I have been waiting for Apple to release a major change in it's laptop lineup for quite a while, and with the release of the 15.4" and ...

I had very specific needs when purchasing a new laptop, this year. I can certainly be considered a laptop newbie, but have been using a computer at work for years so am pretty savvy with all MS programs. I expected that there would be an adjustment period between the two platforms, but I breezed right through and quickly adjusted.

If you are the creative type, wanting built-in programs for photos, website builder, music/studio recording, movie editing... this mac has it all. Tutorials are good, but the mac discussion groups have all the answers! Those forums can help you through ANYTHING.

I bought the glass-type screen and have had no problem with glare. Once or twice at night, perhaps...in 6mo period.

I purchased the MS mac software so I could still use Word, Excel, PP, Outlook... but honestly, I haven't used except for Word. It was a comfort / fear thing!

No spam, no pop-ups, no viruses... it recognizes almost any device instantly, I was told "it just knows" how to connect to plugged-in devices and found this to absoultely TRUE. Like magic. I LOVE LOVE LOVE MY MAC!!!
