I didn't know apple could get better but they did
This review is from: Apple MacBook Pro MB985LL/A 15.4-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers) I had an older version macbook pro but i dropped it with some force and it broke so i had to purchase a new computer. After having a mac for 1 1/2 years, it wasn't a question of what brand to buy but which mac to buy. I purchased the mac book pro 2.66 ghz with 4 gb ram--which is what i had in my last mac book pro. What i didn't realize is that this ram is the DDR3 instead of DDR2 which ...

Compelling alternative to PC
After installing a Trend Micro update and bricking my PC (which I was later able to remedy after 8+ hours of system restores and firewall modifications), I had enough and decided I was done with Microsoft. I have been using the Macbook Pro 15 for a little under a week, and so far, I'm pleased that I made the switch. Obviously, there's a pretty steep premium on Macbook Pros, so I'll try to cover the items that make it worth the extra coin, as well as some annoyances I've encountered as a first ...

Real improvement
This review is from: Apple MacBook Pro MB985LL/A 15.4-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers) Coming from a troubled Nvidia 8600M GT MacBook Pro - let me say that I was very skeptical buying another Apple Laptop with nVidia chip in it.
However, one weekend I decided to visit the nearest Apple Retail Store and check out the newly released models. My decision was mostly influenced by the reduced prices and increased battery life.
After some debating over buying t...

Hardware and Software Perfection
This review is from: Apple MacBook Pro MB985LL/A 15.4-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers) This machine is without a doubt the best computer, if not the best piece of technology gear, that I have ever used or owned.
Going to try to keep this review short, but sweet.
I've had it for about 9 months now, basically since the Unibody MBP's came out. First, the construction is just outstanding. The solidness of the enclosure makes the whole thing feel sturdy and b...

Wow. Better in most ways than previous models
Apple's latest version of the MacBook Pro combines a sleeker case, more GB of RAM, an SD slot, and longer battery life, all with a lowered price. The 15" LED backlit display (available on the previous models as well) is simply gorgeous, with crisp graphics and easy-on-the-eyes clarity.
Unlike older models of the MacBook and MacBook Pro, this laptop runs fairly cool, even after hours of using a lot of processor power. The case, though not as thin as the Air, is slimmer than most (no...

Quite powerful, beautifully executed
This review is from: Apple MacBook Pro MB985LL/A 15.4-Inch Laptop (Personal Computers) My wife bought this a week back, and I am considering replacing my T61p with this as well. With an Apple, you buy a premium quality product, and pay a little extra for it. But you get what you pay for.
Pros:
1. Great performance, dual graphics cards should perhaps help. DDR3 RAM rounds off a nice story
2. Glossy display is great. We've used it indoors and in front of a ...

CLOSE TO GREAT....IF YOU CAN STAND THE PAIN!
After 25 years with Microsoft, I threw in the towel. This Mac seemed to be all that I was looking for: Ability to run Windows, good battery life, light weight, less virus prone. And, I have to say that it pretty much delivered on all counts except one. Apple's unibody looks great, but if you use your machine on your lap be prepared for a world of pain. The leading edge of the of the machine is razor sharp. Within a few minutes, depending on how you rest your wrist or palm on that edge, you...

Pretty machine, pretty poor support
I'm a PC guy, I've owned PC for 20 years and done professional support on them for over a decade and I've never seen service as I've seen with the Macbook Pro 15"
The Machine itself is sleek and pretty, the display looks nice and it has a comfortable fit to it. The processor etc seems to do what needs to be done and does it well. It is however twice the price of a compatible PC.
That in itself wouldn't be much of a problem. Until there was a problem.
My son wa...
