Hello Forum! i purchased a new Macbook from apple, and let me say that i love every bit of it, the screen, keyboard, superdrive and of course.. OSX

ive been a PC use for about 10 years, my first computer was a pentium 2 wih windows 95 and ive gone up so far,

Since the Whole vista thing i made my choice to go with a Mac, why ? because Vista is Horrible IMHO to buggy, took up Alot of my Ram and overall the Feel to it was "ehh"

My Macbook has everything i could want on a computer, Powerfull CPU, Great OS ! and overall portablity .

here are my specs. 1.83 core 2 duo, 1gb of ram, 60gb hard drive and intel integrated graphics

here r some pics

You fool, your never supposed to take the toy out of it's original packaging! It decreases the value!!!

J/K, I just got done watching The 40 Year Old Virgin, so I had to say it. :mac:

The pics look great, I'm happy for you!

hmmm, kind of looks like mine as well

Congrats on the very good purchase - I hope you'll be happy with it - I know I love mine - OSX is so nice and easy to use - problems seem to sort themselves out (and by problems I mean 'How do I do this' type of things rather than actual problems) and when you can't figure it out yourself this forum is great for filling in the blanks.
