I have had my Macbook for 2 months now. I can honestly say that this little thing has not only changed my world but made me look at computers totally different. I love booting up and not having to wait for the system tray to load, no popup every 5 minutes telling me to update something, and I love trashing programs I don't really use and never having to worry about them again. My Mac has never crashed on me and I only formatted it and reinstalled everything once because of bootcamp! So I would say it's been a very positive piece of equipment!
Now for the bad! I cannot work when I'm on it. The functions I need are almost all windows based or the laptop isn't powerfull enough. I knew going in that it would not do graphic intensive things but never thought it would be as bad as it has been. The little wheel that comes up to think does it a lot in dreamweaver just to open a file! Loading anything, including a browser, yep, has to think! I hate it thinking all the time, loading a pic, yep thinking! I hate it! Whoever said pc hardware was more expensive can jump off a bridge, I looked at a Dell XPS1210 today with 2gb ram and a nice gpu for $996. The position I'm in is should I sell the Macbook or do you guys think there is something wrong with it? I am leaning toward selling but maybe there is something I'm doing wrong!
