This was a special gift to my 13 yr old granddaughter, who was elated with the surprise and adores it. She uses it constantly, takes it to bed with her and is the happiest kid on the block!!
Rating: - Great Value
I upgraded my old macbook (white one) to this model and am very happy. With 4 gigs of Ram I am able to effortlessly go from a mac to a pc environment without any delays and/or problems. Although I had that ability on the old macbook, the reality was that as a heavy user of large programs, I was constantly having speed issues. This is a thing of the past. Now that Apple has lowered the price, it is truly a great buy.
Rating: - I returned it
I ordered my MacBook to record music. The cd drive was grinding against the inside of the case. The Apple CoreAudio driver doesn't work with my firewire interfaces (FA-66 and FA-101) with Audacity. I tried to put Windows on it cause I know the Win drivers work, but bootcamp doesn't load either.
So I returned it. Amazon were really great about the return. Things went smoothly, and I got my money back.
I'll not get another Apple any time soon, but I will definitely buy from Amazon more often.
Rating: - Get a Macbook Pro or new Macbook instead
Owned this model (Black Macbook) for 2 weeks. Could not get over how annoying and painful the palm rests were. It was crazy. I would immediately feel the edge of the palm rest digging into my wrists. And no, my method of typing was not the issue, it was the palm rest itself which are strangely sharp. I was also not so impressed with the screen itself. The only way I can describe it was that I felt it was not as sharp as the Dell Inspiron notebook I was using prior. The pros were of course it's a Mac and it's lightweight.
I ended up purchasing a Macbook Pro months later and absolutely love it. If a Macbook Pro is too pricey for you, check out the new aluminum macbooks. Half a pound lighter and they seem to be much easier on the wrists.
