Product Description:
Apple MacBook Pro - For the demanding computer user, the Apple MacBook Pro has a professional level of power and features. At it's heart is an Intel Core Duo processor. A processor with 2 separate cores. In English, that means it's like having 2 processors in one. The MacBook also features a large 15.4' widescreen display. Expanding your screen real estate to where you can easily have 2 programs open at the same time, side-by-side. You also get a 4x SuperDrive that lets you record audio, video, and data to CD & DVD media. A built-in iSight camera is a great addition to the MacBook Pro, allowing you to capture video for e-mail, or have a video conference from wherever there's an Internet connection available. I've just highlighted a fraction of the MacBook Pro's capabilities. Check out what else Apple has provided in this advanced mobile computer... Slot-Loading 4x SuperDrive Write Speeds - up to 4x DVD-R, 4x DVD+R, 4x DVD-RW, 4x DVD+RW, 24x CD-R & 10x CD-RW Read Speeds - up to 8x DVD-ROM & 24x CD-ROM ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 with 256MB of GDDR3 SDRAM and dual-link DVI Built-in iSight Camera 15.4 Widescreen Display 1440x900 Native Resolution Ports - 10/100/1000 Ethernet, 1 FireWire 400, 2 USB 2.0, ExpressCard/34 slot, Combined Optical Digital Audio Input/Audio Line Input, Combined Optical Digital Audio Output/Headphone Out Built-in Stereo Speakers Built-in 54Mbps AirPort Extreme Wi-Fi (802.11g) Support Built-in Bluetooth 2.0+EDR (Enhanced Data Rate) Module Illuminated keyboard with ambient light sensor Unit Footprint - 14.1 x 9.6 Unit Thickness - 1 Unit Weight - 5.6 lbs.

- Defective
1) Two pixels in the screen burst;
2) The computer is overheating;
3) It is very slow and I cannot open two programs at the same time;
4) There is a strange noise, possibly the cooler.

Please advise

- good laptop, better than my last 2 Sony VAIOs
I used this machine primarily for business and I don't play computer games. So put this review in that context.

I am running Windows XP on top of the Parallel Virtual machine. Works quite well. All my Windows applications run, without exception so far. I bumped up the memory to 2GB just to give Windows room; it may be possible to run with just 1GB, but I did not mind spending the extra $140 for the memory.

Plus points: powerful processor, big big screen, nice enough keyboard, ... Read More

- Best laptop I've ever used
Before this Macbook Pro, I have had two $2,500 and $3,000 Windows machines, which did ok.

This is the best computer I have ever used. I do alot of photo editing, I create my own DVD's with the iLife suite and edit movies. I organize my video, music, and tv collections just fine. I use this laptop to run Keynote presentations which look great and present the information clearly.

This is the Intel Core Duo (which I have), and not the Core Duo 2 which is even more powerful. But the ... Read More

- OK but with some shortcomings
I've been a Mac fan for about 20 years but have been using windows and linux laptops for the last 10 years or so because of compatibility requirements with my work. I was pretty excited to get this mac. The laptops are so beautiful and the OS is so clean that it's easy to fall in love with the machines. The good stuff everyone talks about: great OS, good keyboard feel, beautiful screen, nice power cord and connection, and generally quiet operation. But there are also ergonomic disappointments, especially ... Read More
