MacBook Pro

Pros: Run windows better. Run Macs better than old macs, Run Unix better. Attention to detail.

Cons: Apache PHP MySQL config weird. Sometimes needs to recharge before rebooting. IE7 without windows please?

The Bottom Line: I'm not a mac fanatic, I have more PCs than macs, but I love this laptop. It is like having 3 laptops in one.

Review: Let me first say that I am NOT the most tech-savvy woman on the block. But, having used computers for the last 22 years (since the IBM PC and original Apple Mac back in the mid 1980s, as my father was a Silicon Valley engineer before retirement), I'm ...

Pros: Larger Screen, Stylish Design, Easy Transition from Windows to Mac, User Friendly

Cons: Price

The Bottom Line: If you are scared of the transition from Windows to Mac - don't be. If you are thinking of buying a Mac - buy one. You'll love it.

Review: I waited a VERY long time going back and forth on whether or not I was going to buy a Mac. I think my one main concern was if I was going to transition easily from Windows to Mac. I had used a Mac way back in the late nineties - and it was so foreign to ...

Pros: Beautiful, fast, Windows and OS X on the same system, OS X stability

Cons: Gets very hot running XP, expensive

The Bottom Line: After 5 months, I feel more satisfied with this computer than any other system I've owned.

Review: As a write this, Apple has just upgraded their MacBook Pros with the latest intel processor Peryn (sp?). So, everything I say is true without regard to any speed, stability and temperature gains. I bought my MacBook Pro back in October of 2007 for ...

Pros: functions well!

Cons: weak case!

The Bottom Line: this is awesome but the screen is too big!

Review: I have had my mac book pro 17” for about a year and a half- it is my second mac, the first was a PowerBook G4. The only two complaints I have had have been case related- both have had he aluminum cases, which dent and warp. I have a speck case now (the ...

Pros: everything

Cons: nothing

The Bottom Line: Never been happier...with a computer, that is.

Review: I waited and waited to make the final decision to cross over...and SO glad I did. I considered myself a fairly advanced Windows user, so I was hard to impress. One day, while in an Office Depot store, I decided to ask the "geeks" their advice. I said, ...

Pros: Usually runs Windows as well as a pc. Great hardware. Will convert you to Mac!

Cons: Has the glitches of a Windows laptop plus some of its own. Pricey.

The Bottom Line: This is a great laptop, but running XP or Vista does cause problems at times. Still, because of the many advantages its worth the extra money.

Review: *** Update: Dec 27, 2008  ****If anything I feel more positive about this laptop than when I wrote this review.  It works as well today as it did the day I bought it.  Since the time of this review, I have upgraded the PC side to Vista ...

Pros: sleek, slim design; speedy processing, biggest BANG for the biggest buck

Cons: the mouse does not have two buttons, which makes using the right click difficult

Review: I am relatively new to the world of Macs, and generally not the most tech-saavy woman, but it didn't take me long at all to transition from a PC to a MacBook Pro. I love the features that Mac has, and I have Boot Camp software that allows me to run both ...

Pros: My 2008 MacBook Pro caused no problems at all.

Cons: A bit heavy, gets too warm as previously mentioned, you need a real mouse.

Review: I'd like to publish a review on my 2003 Mac Book pro because strangely, after 5 years it is working just fine. One would not expect a laptop to function for 5 years, at least I would not. My six months old Sony Vaio running on Vista (reallllllly ...

Pros: Awesome computer looks great, great performance, big screen cant go wrong.

Cons: Costs a fortune, gets a quite warm after running for a few hours.

The Bottom Line: great platform for running programs that are art oreinted

Review: We all face the dilemma in todays day in age of getting a computer. Maybe you already have a desk top and need something portable, in my case I am off to college and need a laptop that will last. In the last 4 years personally I have been through three ...
