Apple MacBook Pro

overview.jpgJust back in June 2007 I bought a 15″ Core2Duo 2.2Ghz MacBook Pro from the Apple Store in BlueWater, and thought it about time I made a report on it.

I bought the laptop a matter of days after the slight upgrade and price drop, so I got the SantaRosa cpu and all for the sum of £1299 - which I thought expensive but better value than the previous models.gallery-big-07.jpg

I had a great time in the store, sales assistants were helpful, it was light and airy, there was no pressure to be forced into a sale, nothing like PC World or similar, I was very impressed. I chose the Glossy screen, took me ages to decide too, but in the end I thought that the glossy screen suited my intended use better.

I have joined the apple discussions forums and helped out a bit, and read up on what troubles people have had with these laptops, obviously being a support site, people are mostly there to whinge or seek help, not to give help like me. I have had no issues at all with my machine, well except the skipping a key problem, but thats a very very minor issue for me.

Over all I am very happy with this laptop, and since it is the first machine I have bought with my own money, thats just as well :p
