The good: Upgraded CPU for the same price; same great design; Leopard operating system.

The bad: Still no ExpressCard or SD card slots; only more expensive models are available in black.

The bottom line: Apple has been content to issue minor periodic hardware updates to the 13-inch MacBook, but the modest performance gains and new Leopard OS keep it in our top tier of laptop recommendations.

Idiot Proof & ALL-in-One



Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Easy to use, excellent and not so boring display,keyboard is one of the best that i have used. Its a beauty!!!
Cons: Heavy?Not really scratch proof...super expensive accessories and being "yr frds will stare at u"(lol)
Opinion:
i have nvr been a good PC user. nvr understand why ppl are such experts in computers.switched to MAC 5 years ago and ppl have been criticising about my Laptop( "lotsa abuses"). upgraded to the latest version recently and it just got better!!!! Its really easy to use!! whats more with a integrated program like i-life which is really great!!! Fun to play and work with due to its smooth interface and the whole set up and design is really fun to look at if i compare to windows. think microsoft is learning from apple when they created vista..n unfortunately i guess its still short.. lastly, i still got "abuses" from my frds but i nvr look back.. no regrets!!!

 

A BEAUTY



Rating: 10 out of 10 (Perfect)
Pros: Great Design, User friendly, You can't take your eyes off of it.
Cons: A bit more expensive than other laptops, have to stop dating for a year just to afford it, but it is ALL worth it.
Opinion:
I just bought mine last June 3, I really have a white one with a 2.4 GHz, 2GB memory but since this is the closest one available in CNET I'm posting mine here. Okei, on to the review: Love it, love it, love it, both the outside aesthetics and the OS are incredible. I sometimes just look at it and smile because it's sooooo beautiful. It has my kind of design, a minimalist one. I'm still studying how to use its OS since I was a Windows user before, but the switch is all worth it.

 

How on earth are people using Microsoft still?

Pros: Brilliant SW, Amazing battery, Great looks, Unbeleiveingly fast
Cons: Bit on the heavy side, cannot use webcam unless with Ichat
Opinion:
I just switched to MAC couple of weeks ago. I think that i am never going back to windows. This is the best laptop I ever owned. Way to go MAC
