Top Notch Service
Not only was the product as described and the delivery time prompt, but the attention to me as purchaser was more than expected. Extra time and effort was made to provide additional information and to answer questions about software for the computer and other computers.
An excellent sales and service provider.
Macbook White Review
I have to say that this product is incredible. The high quality image on the screen and how great the performance is. I was a PC user back several years ago with windows vista, and I have to say the PC back then compared to the Macbook is bad. The Macbook has great programs and can’t be compared to anything else. I will list some pros and cons about this Macbook and several of my opinions.
Cons: The image quality is outstanding and clearer then anything I have ever seen. The programs on the Mac are not great but they hold everything that I ever wanted on a PC. The camera built-in is great because such as a program like Skype, you can talk directly into the computer without having a headset. I also bought iLife and iWork and haven’t used them much lately but they are also great.
Flaws: The gaming on the Macbook is horrible. Such games like helicopter and some games to download are horrible because they aren’t much of a quality game. The PC can run such games as Crisis, Modern Warfare 2, and plenty of others. Macbook is starting to get better in gaming though which I think is great. The battery is said to have 7 hours but my battery is getting worse and has decreased to 5 hours over one year.
My Opinions: I really don’t like the pure white on the Macbook because It can be portrayed as somewhat racist to some. They also should have added some actual games to play that are first person shooter that comes with the Macbook but you can’t expect everything.
I definitely prefer this over a PC.
Pros and cons
Pros:
Great Internal Microphone and Webcam
Fast Processor
Excellent Operating System (this is the only reason why people spend the extra money on macs)
Compact and Lightweight
Very Long Battery Life
Screen is Damaged Easily by Cleaning
Plastic is Not Very Sturdy
Really Bad Internal Speakers
Poor Graphics Performance
Costs Twice as Much as a Windows Laptop with Similar Hardware
Runs Very Hot (poor ventilation)
Numerous Small Quality Issues (headphone jack only worked at certain rotations, screen made weird electric noise when at certain brightnesses)
Get the aluminum version or go for a Windows laptop with a real video card. Or if you don’t need a video card, get a NetBook, they’re very cheap and have great battery life and store easily. Only buy this if you love the Mac operating system.
One Word: Perfect
As a student, I was pretty hesitant to get the MacBook, but after MONTHS of exhaustive research looking for the right laptop (I’m a networking student, and also I am working on my A+ PC Repair certification, so I know a thing or two about PC’s and Windows), I decided that I needed a change in my life. I’ve had an IBM ThinkPad T60 last me four years through school, but after 4 re-install’s of XP, I’ve had enough of the constant attacks of viruses, spyware, etc…and I decided to go with the MacBook.
PROS:
Perfect for web browsing, e-mail, and document creation.
Comes with great features right out of the box: iLife simply rocks; it comes with PhotoBooth, Garageband (where you can create your own music or learn to how play an instrument), Preview, and iMovie (it’s basically an easier version of Windows Movie Maker)
Time Machine for backing up documents and pictures, which is FAR SUPERIOR than using the Backup Feature in Windows.
Wi-Fi is SO EASY to set-up using what Apple calls “Airport”, just go to the wi-fi antenna at the top of the right-hand corner and set-up right there.
Printing: Coming from a Windows world, and living in a household with a wireless network, setting up a printer was a pain in the butt with Windows, with Mac, it’s SO EASY to set-up and begin printing.
BlueTooth: BlueTooth is common in all laptops nowadays, and again, like setting up a printer, it basically connects with the BlueTooth device automatically.
MagSafe Adapter: Apple introduced this idea called MagSafe. If someone got caught on your power cord, it would take the cord and not the computer. I can’t tell you how many times my dogs got caught on my IBM power cord and basically almost took the computer with it.
Battery Life: Wow, what a difference. I was coming from a half-hour battery life on my IBM, although Apple says that the battery can last on a 10 hours on a single charge, in the real world, it’s falls under 6 hours, but still this is pretty incredible.
2GB of RAM. Now coming from a Windows world, Windows is a memory hogger, so the more RAM you have in a Windows system, you are good to go, but with a Mac, it’s different. Now if you are compressing 1080p video on a MacBook, the system starts to hick-up trying to catch-up. My advice? Upgrade to 4GB or get the MacBook Pro.
EXPENSIVE: Like all Apple products, it’s pretty expensive. I was pretty hesitant to buy a MacBook because it was pretty pricey and being a student i.e. poor, I needed to save up a good chunk of money to buy one of these machines.
So if you are in the market for a new laptop, only need to do some document creating, and web-browsing this Mac is for you. If you want to do some high-end video compression, go with the MacBook Pro since the Pro lines are more aimed at high-end video production. This is definitely a perfect system if all you want is just web-browsing and document creation.
