Rating: Summary: Good Lord! It's Sweet. Review: I'm what you would call a power user. I work in the animation biz and use unix workstations and pee cees the whole day. The only time I had ever used a mac was when I was in middle school. But when I saw this beauty I just had to have one. The unit is simply beautiful and is great for video editing on the fly...which is what I mainly use it for. It has become an invaluable tool for quickly putting together comps for dailies at the studio.The ease of use and design of the OS is wonderful...I don't really understand why so many pc users are against macs. My suggestion is to go out and take it for a spin at your local electronics store and decide for yourself. For me, powering this baby up after spending hours upon hours working on SGI and SUN workstaions is a pleasure in itself. If you are going to get this unit, make sure you don't skimp on RAM and buy an extra battery because nothing is worst than having your powerbook low in a middle of a work session.

Rating: Summary: It's Terrific! Review: I've had one since the end of May 2002, and I love it.
Rating: Summary: back to the mac! Review: I've had this baby for about three weeks now and there is only one word that can describe it... AMAZING! This is my first mac in about 10 years and the transition back couldn't have been any easier. My overall productivity has actually increased. I transfer files between this and my pc desktop flawlessly so compatibility is not an issue. MacOS X is a godsend after living in the windows world for 10 years. The design is wonderful. It's thin and light, compared to other pc laptops. Only 800mhz, you say? Well, this baby FLIES! Don't let the mhz deceive you. It feels on par with my 1.8ghz P4 desktop.. especially in photoshop. Lack of software? All I need is available. I don't know what else to say.. this thing is just amazing. Try one out for yourself and u'll see.
Rating: Summary: better than pc Review: if you want to find out about mac goto the apple web page- i'll just say that i've used pc's extensively and this year bought my first mac... osx is a dream- i will never even think of purchasing a pc again.
Rating: Summary: Wow. Review: PROS: * Fast enough for me. * Looks sleek and nice. * Despite what others say, there is ample software. * Jaguar is amazing. IT HAS NEVER NEVER NEVER CRASHED ON ME. IT IS SO EASY TO NAVIGATE AND CONTROL! <-- ** * Firewire... * Card Slot... (the list goes on, I'm tired however) Oh, and to the guy that [talked] about it over heating, what... are you talking about? CONS: * I admit, OS 9 can be annoying at times. * What I HEAR from a FEW others is that Apples customer service can be sketchy. I, personally, have never had any problems because I've NEVER needed to contact them... Just buy it. Apples are better. Trust me. This system is 99.9999999... flawless.
