Simply Marvelous!
By Mr. Ac Yates
Well, I've been a PC fan for a long time, I build them, take them apart, tinker with them, then put them back together again. I used Windows because it ran everything, and I didnt have to worry about compatibility.Then Microsoft released Vista, and I began to move away from PCs more and more. Vista was advertised as a flashy fantastic OS that would do everything you needed it to.This was a lie. Vista made my mid to high spec computer that I had spents hundreds of pounds on look like a dinosaur. I was gutted.Then my friend showed me his Mac, (I had tried to avoid these like the plague for years because getting my usual programs to run on them was impossible.) It looked great, he booted it up and loaded into Mac, and it just worked. I needed to do something, I could do it, just like that. Then he needed to use a windows application. He turned it off, and booted into Windows XP using his boot camp install, and he could run any Windows application. And I swear XP was faster on his Mac. But nowdays companies and software developers are taking Apple in mind more, and are releasing products for them. I've found numerous Windows applications that have been ported over for use on Macs.A week later I knew I wanted a Mac. It took me a while to save for one as they are very expensive, but the cost is far outweighed by the performance, usability and reliability you get.I opted for the mid range macbook as I needed the DVD-RW capability. Within 2 hours I had learnt how to do everything I needed the Mac to do. I dont know anyone that could turn on a PC for the first time and just know where everything was.This is by far the best buy I've ever made. I'm going to sell my PC, and get myself one of the new iMacs next, just so I have a big screen desktop to use when I want to watch films, or have more of a screen to look at.I would recommend this to anyone. Macs simply are the best. And you wont ever want to go back.

Cool machine
By Harvey E
I'm a recent convert from Windows to MacOS. A little strange at first, but I become more enthusiastic each day. MacOS is very intuitive, and everything "just works".This laptop is loaded with a good spec, and runs more quickly and seamlessly than any other computer I've used. Lovely to look at, light, easy to transport and use, and a good set of software to start you off. Handles multiple applications without any effort.Only downside - and loses a star - overpriced in UK compared to abroad. Bought mine abroad and saved £160.Having said that, plus point too, buy any Mac anywhere in the world and it will run in English. Windows doesn't.In conclusion, if you can afford the extra money this will give you a great computing experience.

Back in the day
By Mr. Popplewick
Without doubt the best computer I've ever owned. It just does what I want without any of the fuss associated with normal run of the mill PCs. I can finally get on with my work now instead of re-building a windows installation every six months.I have a friend who mumbles on about 'closed systems' and refuses to acknowledge Apple computers for anything other than looks but the truth is that Macs are the computer for the 'rest of us'. By that I mean people who don't want to be stuck in a room for hours on end making stuff work and fixing system conflicts. People who take no 'geeky' satisfaction from hi-tech traumas.Even this basic system happily runs the latest applications like Photoshop CS3 without any problems. It will open and happily apply processor heavy filters to 300dpi images without even breaking a sweat.Airport, the Mac's wi-fi system is superb. I set it up at my Father in laws to use his BT hub and every time I go back with it it just picks it up and uses it without me having to do anything. He spent hours on the phone to a call centre in India setting it up and I did it in 30 seconds. Mac v PC? No contest really.Thanks must also go to Microsoft because their release of Vista was responsible for pushing me back into the arms of the Macintosh, arms I never intend to leave again!
