 Disappointed so far... November 16, 2008
1 out of 4 found this review helpful
I've had to return two white macbooks so far. Each one came with a defect that was completely unacceptable for a $1,000 laptop. The first one had some keyboard issues. The tab key would feel mushy, like there was a piece of gum under the key. This was especially apparent when I would start up my computer in the morning. This macbook also had a slightly misaligned case. So I returned it got a refund then ordered another white macbook. The second unit had a faulty trackpad. The button on the trackpad was very mushy and it didn't "click" at all. The trackpad button would work very inconsistently especially when clicking on the right side and the left side of the button. I did some research on it and after a few searches I found out that I had to put a tiny piece of folded paper inside the battery compartment to fix it. After I did this it worked fine but I wasn't about to pay a good amount of money on a defective macbook. So now I'm waiting on my replacement macbook that should arrive in the next few days. I'm crossing my fingers on this one.
 Everything I thought it would be, and more! November 15, 2008

I got the 2.4ghz. White MacBook back in July, and I can say that I've never in my life been so impressed by a product. It's simply fantastic. What drew me in were the looks, but this computer is so much more than that. The Mac OS is years ahead of anything else. Things like expose and spaces make using this computer very easy. The iLife software that's included is all that the average user will ever need to manage a digital lifestyle. The iSight camera can be loads of fun when using Photo Booth, and very convenient for video chatting. When people say that "everything just works" on a Mac they're not lying. In 6 months I haven't had a single problem. Apple's integration of both software and hardware is unmatched by any computer company out there. If you're not sure about this computer, or any other Apple computer I highly recommend that you give it a try. You won't regret it.
Best computer I've ever had November 14, 2008

The Macbook is the best computer I've ever had. I will never own another PC again. The first thing I realized I loved about it was the startup time. My previous PCs took up to 5-7 minutes to completely start. This computer does everything virtually instantly. I thought the transition from windows would be difficult, but it wasn't at all. The entire system is extremely easy to use. It just takes getting used to. Everything from the address book, calendar, to mail feature is easier to use than the PC versions. I can sync my calendar and to do lists to my iPod quickly and easily. That is a great feature for being as active as I am. The only thing that took serious getting used to was the Microsoft Office applications. The layout is very different. And figuring it all out took some time. The note taking ability of Word is very different though. I like it better. It can actually look like you're writing on notebook paper and flag certain areas of the notes that are important. If that is too much for you to get used to, Macs can also run windows, so it wouldn't be a problem. Another feature that fits my lifestyle perfectly is the options with photos. With my old PC I felt like I was always uploading new software with every digital camera to make it possible to upload pictures and then other software for editing pictures. It got confusing. With the Macbook, as soon as I plugged my digital camera in it starting working. I could upload pictures, edit them, and they were never saved to an area of my computer that was hard to locate later. Everything is easier on a Mac and works in the most logical way. I love it and won't ever use anything else.
THE PERFECT LAPTOP! November 13, 2008

Apple never ceases to amaze me with the products that they put out. Every time I turn around they have a brand now version/model of a laptop or desktop that is simply amazing. I know that when I purchase an apple I am buying something that is made with quality that I can trust. The Macbook is by far the best laptop that I have ever purchased. I made 2 other purchases towards laptops before getting my Mac, and yes they were PC laptops. Something always went wrong with one of the PCs and after a while I was tired and just wanted something that worked. I never really gave the Macbook a second thought after messing with one in the Apple Store.
Macbooks seem to have everything I need, and some. As a student it is very important to have a computer that I can trust to not crash on me while I am typing up a 20-page document for one of my research classes. It's also important for me to know that I can take my laptop to class and not be worried about the loss of too much battery. The Macbook's battery life is very impressive compared to my other laptops I have owned. I can get at least 3 hours of battery life off of the charger. IT'S AMAZING!!! I am also into graphic designing, and with the Macbook's fast processor and AMAZING Adobe Photoshop CS3 software, I can makeup something that some can only dream of. The Macbook's pristine 13.3-inch glossy screen display makes all of my graphics, along with movies and other visual items, to pop out of the screen.
If you are in the field of searching for a new laptop, I strongly encourage you to check out the Macbook, it will be a worthwhile purchase!
 Macbook November 13, 2008

Excuse my english. I added my review to help other out there who are thinking about buying MacBook. So you can make your own opinion base on my experience.
I had have my MacBook more than a month ago. After one month, I turned my computer on and had white screen window..I mean nothing on it. So, I had it fixed. Now, I am worried about it. It gets hotter in 2 hrs and worried about it getting ruin, explode or wont run. Now , I wonder if I can get another MacBook and send this one back to Apple. It suppose to have one year warranty but trading it might not be acceptable. Also is anybody out there knows how I can resolve or prevent this laptop from getter hotter? I guess my comment and question.
