Summary: Promises a lot and delivers headache
Comment: I bought MacBook Pro from Newegg and it came with obsolete operating system and without support. It took three days to resolve support problem and update operating system. IMovie crashes repeatedly. The worst thing is that when it does you have to wait up to an hour for the system to go through its paces to do anything else. Generally there are delays in any application and one never k nows if the system got stuck or it is doing something. Most of the time there is no indication what the system is doing. I do not think I will ever buy another Mac again.

Summary: Great!
Comment: I used to be a Macbook 13" but I'm a Macbook Pro now. There's a huge difference in performance and hardware. Specially because I'm running with 4gb RAM. Congratulations to Amazon: 1day for delivery time and the on-line Rebate.

Summary: Piece of garbage!!
Comment: What's nice is paying $2,000 for a new computer, only to have the hard drive fail after 6 months. Garbage, garbage, garbage! Save you money and buy a PC, which is what I had to do when my computer's hard drive failed 2 days before I started school. Wish I could have my money back on this lemon.

Summary: Should have switched a long time ago
Comment: Mac is the Cadillac of computers. It looks good and works just as good as it looks. Very fast, amazing display, user friendly and lots of extras built in. Now that I am able to run Windows and Mac on the same machine, I find I am using Windows less and less.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Good laptop but poor quality.
Comment: I have this notebook for little more than a month, but it went back to Apple two time already. First time is the delete key fall out, and now the hard drive is disappeared in the system, meaning the system can't locate the hard drive, and can't start up. Apple said will replace the hard drive for me, but this should not be the case for a 47 days laptop.
