Compelling Alternative To PC! Wanted To Buy Apple MacBook Pro.
Apple MacBook Pro MC118LL/A 15.4-Inch Laptop Reviewed by Michael J. Christensen (Elk Grove Village, IL United States)
Satisfied Rating (8/10)
After installing the updates and bricking Trend Micro PC (which I then had to correct after 8 + hours to restore the system and changes in the firewall), I had enough and decided to do with Microsoft. I was using the MacBook Pro 15 a little 'less than a week, and yet, I'm glad that I had to change. It 'clear that there is a steep premium for MacBook Pro, so I will try the items that make for another currency, as well as some difficulties that I encountered on your Mac first.
Here are some advantages:
+ Beautiful 15 "widescreen display. I go 17" for PC, and because the display was a bit 'square, I do not think the screen size is too obvious decline
+ Much lighter than a PC. At 5.5 pounds, it is easier to carry the same size PC
+ Super-fast connection of supply voltage and out. I would say that it takes between 30-40 seconds for the power, and less than 10 seconds for an excellent off-<

Review by mbiene (USA) 2010-07-29 " I was fairly happy with the laptop (N61JQ-A1) for about 2-3 months. The price is ok, it looks good, the perfomance is great, the image fairly clear although the sound/speakers are definitely inferior to other laptops. It was carried around only once, mostly sitting in the office and used 2-3 hours/d... " Read more reviews | ||
