    Duration of ownership: 1 Years

    Strengths: Better protection against viruses than PC's. User frendly.

    Weaknesses:Not much.

    Overall Evaluation: Great product to purchase for those individuals who are into graphic design, photography, television, music and film. well built for performance and speed. Great for wireless internet and video conferencing. Many businesses are leaning towards the use of Apple computers. It is great investment to own one.

    Duration of ownership: 4 Days

    Strengths: design, speed, ability to run programs, everything in general

    Weaknesses:none so far

    Overall Evaluation: I bought the MBP three days ago. Since then, I have been discovering every new thing this machine has to offer, and I am veru happy for switching to Macs. Had Dell for a long time and don't regret switching. This laptop makes your work so easy that I don't think I will load Windows on it. Easy to run applications, just need to get used to new system. Have been reading a lot before buying it and again, Happy to have switched!!!

    Duration of ownership: 2 Weeks

    Strengths: Fast, Has everything, Stylish, Solid build, reasonable price compare with same specific PC laptop.

    Weaknesses:none, maybe could have bigger Harddrive

    Overall Evaluation: I got my new macbook pro for 2 weeks now. I am in love with it. I am a multimedia designer, so I need a powerful machine, yet I don't want to be tied with a desktop. So macbook pro has everything I wanted as a work machine and personal computer. For 2400, I got 2.33 Duo 2 Core, and x1600 video card, 120G HD(a little small , but I got big external HD), and a lot of accessories, like bluetooth, webcam, expresscard slot, wireless, speaker and built in mic. Basiclly, I have everything I need, except the software. Oh! You acctually got all the software you need for your life! (not for professional designing though). The mac comes with iLife and Mail, Widget, dvd player, etc.... iLife is great, I like iPhoto - great way to manage your photos, iDVD - very easy to make good looking DVDs. iTunes - don't need to say much about this, iMovie is good too, although I am professional using Final Cut Pro. ;) oh, I like the address book and iCal too! Photobooth is very cool. I've been thinking of buying a mac for a long time. I used it at school, but it is different than acctually owning one. Now, I am a happy mac owner. I think apple's software and OS system are better than PC's windows, in terms of enjoying your digital life, and of course, they are the graphics and video industry standard too. last thing to mention, since mac switched to intel cpu, now you can boot both mac os and windows. But I didn't install bootcamp, since I feel I can do everything in mac osx, no need for windwos anymore, but I installed paralles, a great way to run windows inside mac osx, when very little time I needed too. :)

    Strengths: Cool design; well-built body; fast performance, intuitive OS.

    Weaknesses:Pricy

    Overall Evaluation: This notebook is a must-have for graphic amateur. The design of hot air vent on this machine is very impressive. It took me a month to find it out. The touchpad is convenient to use. Other things I'd like to point out: 1) This MBP is quite and cool. 2) Speakers are crisp but max volume is low. 3) integrated iSight works fine, but the result is poor under low-light conditions. Highly recommended to all who is tired of Windows OS. Mac OS X win out by a mile.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Wow! Impressive simplicity and performance straight out of the box.

    Weaknesses:Limited desktop/icon customization without 3rd party software.

    Overall Evaluation: As a long-time user of Windows machines, I decided to switch to an Intel Mac since I can now run Windows on it. Well, I've never loaded Windows, and I don't know that I ever will. I am more than satisifed with the software suite included with the Mac OS X, and there is a plethora of freeware and shareware to take care of nearly any task! I would happily buy it again.
