Strengths: Light, strong, high-performance
Weakness: Weaknesses? What weaknesses?
It's an Apple product, so I don't need to remind you of how elegant the MacBook Pro is. Really, it doesn't get much better than this. The MacBook Pro is high-performing, state-of-the-art function wrapped in the sweetest skin one can imagine. The Duo Core chip insures cross-platform (Mac/Windows) reliability at blazing processor speeds. Couple the performance with the simplicity of the Mac OS and...
Strengths: Top notch design. Fast. Great keyboard. Matte display is perfect. Solid aluminum casing.
Weakness: None so far.
I am very satisfied with the Macbook pro with the 15.4" matte display. Setting up MAC OS X Tiger was a breeze and I transferred my personal data from my iBook G4 without any trouble connecting it to the Macbook Pro via a firewire cable. Everything is running very smoothly. Apple has also fixed the over-heating problem. My Macbook Pro stayed fairly cool and when lots of tasks were performed it...
Strengths: Very Nice Screen, Brighter Keyboard illumination, iSight, Much faster than the powerbook, OPTION of running windows (options are always nice), better battery life than the powerbook
Weakness: no modem... not that I used one but I still feel like I wish it was there no svideo... I do miss this feature as I did used to use it noisier fans than powerbook
I had my Powerbook G4 for 2 years, and loved it the entire time, had a bit of a glitch with the screen right before my complimentary 1yr of applecare expired, took it to an apple certified repair shop and it was fix and good as new within 2 days. (a real success story, amongst all that apple care horror stories). I held out on getting a new Macbook Pro when they first came out in hopes of a...
Strengths: Good size screen. Nice camera. Garage band. Good speed.
Weakness: None noted yet.
This notebook is solid, comfortable keypad and big enough screen to have multiple documents open simultaneously. Battery life is at least 5 hours of active use. It powers up and processes quickly. No complaints or problems.
Strengths: Elegant design, choice between glossy or matte display, illuminated keyboard, very nice feature set
Weakness: Power adapter is a bit too large, only 2 USB ports
I've owned a number of laptops over the years (pc & mac), and yet this model is the definite favorite. The hardware itself is a work of art and the operating system makes office work a pleasure. With this new edition (2.16GHz, 120GB HD, 1GB RAM) you get more for your money than ever before. A faster processor, more RAM and hard drive standard, and now the inclusion of a FireWire 800 port. The...
Strengths: big screen (feels bigger than normal 15"), very bright and clear TFT LCD. MacOSX loaded with the latest update version. Most of the time it is very quiet and work smoothly with everything.
Weakness: 1. I do feel that the bottom of the screen has a bar a little bit lighter than the whole screen, but overall, it doesn't bother me that much. 2. The power cord isn't long enough for me.
Overall, this is a great product. Remember to full charge your battery before you start using it regularly (fully discharge it, wait 4-5 hours and then fully charge it). I also had a little hard time to config the wifi but I finally managed to get it done. The glossy screen is super nice. Backlight illuminated keyboard is just so cool. I program a lot during the night, so that is a MUST for me.
Strengths: fast operation, expandability, runs very quiet and cool
Weakness: none so far
After hearing horror stories about the Core Duo machines, none of those issues seem to exist at all on the Core 2 Duo machine I have. I guess it pays to wait for a revision of brand new machines, and the wait certainly was worth it. I run Digital Performer which runs flawlessly and quick, and the fast processor has allowed me to expand the amount of tracks and effects I use simultaneously. (I did...
Strengths: Sleek design, very fast, very fun to use.
Weakness: I'm really afraid of getting this thing scratched! I feel like I'm carrying around an infant when I use this thing.
This is an awesome laptop. It is definitely an upgrade from the Compaq Evo N610c I was using before this, and I have to say, this thing is FAST. And it looks really cool. The built-in camera makes for a really simple chat experience, and it is completely unobtrusive. As a college student, I feel that this thing is just the perfect weight to be bringing to and from classes at around 5 lbs. This is...
Strengths: graphics, sassy looks, nice icons, long battery life, fast booting
Weakness: The delete button can only back space to delete. Need to click twice on the web address space to type over. Easy to slip off the up-down arrow on the right side.
For someone who never owned a mac before, it is a refreshing change from PC with its cool features like the camera that can do many distortion tricks, or the sassy graphic movement when a window is minimized.

Granted the new Mac Book is coming out soon, but dont let that stop you from getting a great notebook. This machine will be able to handle any and all of the requests you need it to do. Assuming you arn't editing the CGI for the next Star Wars Movie (maybe even that), this notebook will provide all the power and memory you need in one sleek and user friendly machine. Find out some more...->

Intel Core 2 Duo processors, twice the RAM, higher hard drive capacities, and the addition of a FireWire 800 port and double-layer DVD burning add up to a surprisingly substantial update to Apple's already compelling 15-inch MacBook Pro laptops.

Best laptop I ever owned
Strengths: Awesome power in a sleek and sexy package, Mac OS X and ability to run Windows or linux, Backlit keyboard, innovative mouse pad, gorgeous screen, wireless n and BT 2.0, apple remote
Weakness: Wish the battery lasted a little longer (4 hrs typical now), would have loved higher resolution screen but cannot complain at the present one either, glossy screen attracts finger prints
This is my first mac.. have long been a lurker at the mac store, but when the macbook pro got revised (in last october), I could wait no more. So far, I am loving the power, design and sweet Mac OS X. Have installed xp with parallels and Vista with bootcamp. No problems using windows on it... got a 4.6 lowest score in vista. If you are the one like me who wants the best in technology...
