"I love this thing."
Pros: The screen is absolutely amazing. Quick processor. Leopard OS works flawlessly. Ability to run windows on the machine with the ease of Boot Camp. Slick package. Runs quietly. Over all great.
Cons: Virtually none. Lack of an SD card drive.
Summary: My entire life I have owned only Windows based machines and this is my first personal Apple computer. I have only grown to love it more each day. Being a gamer, I was always skeptical at the idea of ever owing a mac, but now with intel processors and the ability to run windows with ease, I am engrossed with how well Apple made this product. The computer is a sexy behemoth, that runs quickly and quietly. The only option I purchased was the ATI Radeon 4850. BootCamp may be one of the nicest features that Apple implements in which you can partition your hard drive and run Windows XP easily on it. This also made me realise how much of a sad operating system Windows really is. Leopard was easy enough for me to get acquainted with, though I am not as nearly as familiar yet as I am with XP, the Leopard OS is intuitive enough that it should be quite easy to master. I also love the spaces and expose features where you can assign virtual desktops and easily navigate between windows. I would recommend this machine to anyone.
