Although I have always liked working an a Mac when it comes to graphic work, my MacBook has turned me into a Mac Geek! This is a great product!

Although I work on a powerbook, I've fiddled around on my friends macbook. The experience left me wondering why I went for the powerbook.....Everything I needed is on a macbook.

I've had my Macbook for over two years. It's on almost all the time (even though I have two other Macs). It's a powerful machine that is capable of handling everything I throw at it, with amazing speed (even at two years old)..

Love this product, easy to take with you and simple to learn. Great support system if you ever have any questions for apple, especially if your making a transition from windows and just learning how to use it.

I had a really nice sony, a dell, and a gateway laptop. At one point all three were either virus impaired or unbelievably slow. I bought the mac on an impulse because of the anti virus built in force field. I LOVE IT! It has many freebees and upgrades available. No problems at 6 months. The resolution on the screen is fantastic. It is a heavy laptop for its size but I have gotten used to the extra weight while traveling.

I have been able to take this laptop all over the country not only with programs like Photoshop and Illustrator installed on it, but the ability to easily connect to a wireless network in hotels, and the ability to transfer easily with Bluetooth technology. I have loved this laptop, I have the latest and greatest Macintosh OS installed on it, and I would buy another in a heartbeat.

The Macbook takes some getting used to (I'm normally use Windows Vista) but once you figure it out you'll never go back.

I have always had the middle of the line Mac Desktop but wanted a laptop also. Since I do modst of my work at my desktop I felt the smaller MacBook, instead of the MacBook Pro would suffice. And it certainly does! I love Apple product and the MacBook is well put together, connects to my Airport network with ease and has enough power to do most things I need it to do. Being able to boot up in windows (not just emulate) has served me well when needing to deal with a clients windows only file. All in all a solid machine.

This is for people who can't afford it's bigger brother "The Macbook Pro", and still want an apple computer on a budget. It starts at $1099. It is also available in white or black. but beware that the black version cost $150 more than white version, but you get a bigger hard drive and 2GB or RAM. The reason I gave 4 stars is because it doesn't get full LED backlighting like it thinner brother "The Macbook Air". I recommend that you use it on the day or with light.

Love this computer. HATE PCS. Very few problems compared to the PCs I've used before. Processing speed is wonderful and there are many great graphics, planning and other programs out there.

Easy to use fast, very little complications when they do occur they are minute, as in hold down power button to restart and the problem is solved, that sort of minute. I NEVER recommend anything else!

Pretty decent enough to use. I enjoy using it for my school and other sorts of stuff. Sometimes it does do weird glitches out of no where like when I close it and then open it back in an hour or so it doesnt turn on do i have to restart it. But overall its good especially since they added boot camp

It's great. I've had my MacBook for about 6 months and am running both Windows and Mac. It was very easy to set up and has only shown one flaw. I installed parallels to run Mac and Windows XP simultaneously. It was great, but I had a major crashing problem with Photoshop when operating in parallels.
I'm running Photoshop, Illustrator, DATACad and Picassa along with MS Office, Quicken, Cyberlink Director, etc and it multitasks extremely well and is very fast. I work with the laptop monitor and a desktop monitor for great convenience and a big screen.

I honestly love my Macbook, and I think I'd be lost without it. I can't imagine having to go back to a PC.

I am very happy with my macbook. The special Apple offers with Adobe when you purchase a new macbook sweetened the deal. I was able to pick up design standard (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign CS4 and Acrobat pro) for only $270!. Granted being a student helped, but still!

This is a great beginner computer for anyone who enjoys art. It is great for making music, viewing pictures, editing images, etc. It's a fairly easy-to-use computer.
There are a couple of things that do bother me. In both of my old MacBooks, the super drive and optical drive failed. It wouldn't burn any discs, nor would it eject them. Also, some types of programs are hard to find.

I love this computer. It is very rare that it freezes and even if an application does freeze it is easy to quit out of it. Also, since its a Mac it does not get any viruses, nor require the owner to buy virus protection software. It works nicely and is definitely worth the money!

I love my Macbook. The Macbook, in my opinion, is durable, lightweight, fast, and the screen clarity is phenomenal! The ability to have several applications open at once and ease of navigation is superb! I've been working on Macs for nine years now and seem to get disappointed when I would have to use a PC at school. This laptop allows me to be anywhere at anytime to create digital designs whenever I get a quick dose of inspiration. (provided the battery does not run out or I can plug into power! haha) In addition, the Macbook is a must computer for the college student studying graphic design.
