MACBOOK C2D/2.2 13.3 2GB 160GB

more than happy!

Although I bought this Mac as "refurbished", I can't find any problem with it. Delivered on time and the notebook is in excelent conditions!! Would recommend it to any one.

Macbook

Pro:
- Great device, but extremely basic
- Does alot of basic stuff such as word, surfing the internet, and chat
- nice and small, but leaves mark after long time use ( year or so)

Con:
- Expensive for the hardware
- Macbook Pro would be alot better for best value

JUST WHAT I NEEDED

I LOVE MY MACBOOK. I AM A PREVIOUS HP AND GATEWAY USER THANK GOD I CHOSE TO GO WITH MACBOOK AFTER A SERIES OF FAILURES AND FRUSTRATION DEALING WITH WINDOWS SYSTEM ESPECIALLY WINDOWS VISTA.I CONTINUOUSLY DEALT WITH COMPATIBILITY ISSUES POP UPS AND SPENDING A FORTUNE ON VARIOUS WINDOWS PROGRAMS AND I WAS VERY LUCKY TO OWN A MACBOOK. I LOVE NOT HAVING TO USE MY CAMERA TO UPLOAD ALL PHOTO'S SEEING MACBOOK HAS A BUILT IN CAMERA. I JUST USE PHOTO BOOTH EVERY TIME I NEED TO TAKE A QUICK PHOTO AND SURPRISINGLY THE QUALITY OF THE PHOTOS ARE AMAZINGLY CLEAR AND MUCH BETTER THAN MY CAMCORDER.. WHAT I LOVE ABOUT IT THE MOST IS NOT HAVING TO USE NORTON ANTI VIRUS WHICH IS VERY ANNOYING. I LOVE IWEB, I ALSO LOVE HOW EASY GARAGE BAND IS TO OPERATE SEEING I DO MUSIC. THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST LAPTOP I HAVE EVER OWNED AND I'M NOT SURE IF I WILL EVER BE ABLE TO GO BACK AFTER THIS. ONCE YOU GO MAC YOU NEVER GO BACK.

For MAC newbies

I can't review the specs of the machine I will leave it to the experts but I will discuss what happened after my MAC broke down.

The experience:

My computer started to act up I tried to troubleshoot the problem on apple.com. After a few days of the "self IT help", I took it to the Apple store during lunch. I was asked if I had an appointment. I was told to take it to another Apple store they were too busy. Finally with some understanding that my $1,500 computer had problems and that it didn't matter if it was at home or at the store for a week they let me drop it off. A Genius tech was able to put in a test part until replacement parts came into the Apple store. Note: on the form that you sign a potential $100 charge may apply to your service.

The appointment:

They got the parts in and I made an appointment. An appointment doesn't mean immediate help but possibly around your appointed time on a shared basis with another person that has an appointment too for the IPhone or IPOD. Translation more waiting time.

As a user my preference:

Let me know that as a Genius you may delete something that I did not save. I lost my favorites on Safari. Fortunately, I was able to figure out that if I go to my trash I will find the bookmark.plist file and restore my bookmarks.

Apple store please let me tell you my computer problems and fix it having the choice to leave it over your preference of me making an appointment.

Scratching my head over Apple's strategy:

They have the sales strategy down to a science, but the backend support needs an overhaul. Why do they think it is value added to have the potential new customers of their products stand and wait with people having problems. From my experience at lunch time and during the evening the wait could be long and frustrating.

Final- As a PC user interfacing with the MAC is great.
