    Posted by: from Memphis.TN on 05/21/2013I really enjoy my macbook. It is very light and portable which is especially beneficial for me because I am a student. It is fast and the battery life is wonderful. The display and visibility is great. Everything I could ask for in a computer, this macbook has.

    Posted by: from Somerset, MA on 05/21/2013I love my Mac because of the great picture quality and fast speed. However moving from a PC to a Mac has some getting used to. Luckily I have a friend who has taught me some of the basics

    Ok computer. Wanted the larger screen.
    5
    Posted by: from Perry, GA on 05/20/2013This computer was purchased to replace my "junked out" computer by the Geek Squad. I had a larger computer with a larger screen and wanted the same features as that is what is important to me. Geek Squad refused to give me full purchase price or full credit for my larger MacBook Pro and forced me to pay $30 more just to get this one. Computer is great...wish the screen was bigger though because I usually have multiple programs open and once. Would strongly discourage anyone from investing in the Geek Squad protection plan though. I spent $2000 on a computer with protection plans and ended up with a $1000 computer in the end.

    Great Laptop

    Posted by: from Frisco, TX on 05/20/2013This my second Apple computer (we have iPhones and iPads) and we love it. Light weight, easy to use. For business purposes, I suggest getting Office 365. Apple's equivalent will get you by, but it's just not the same.

    Posted by: from Peoria, Illinois on 05/20/2013I have used a HP for years and was having trouble with some virus even though I had protection from them. The apple gives me confidence that those problems will not happen again.

    Posted by: from Cleveland, OH on 05/20/2013My second Mac, there is one on my desk. I'll never buy another PC. They are just junk. I no longer have to tolerate endless microsoft updates, restarts software lockups, etc etc. The extra price is worth not having to put up with all that.

    Awesome first Mac!
    5
    Posted by: from Ohio on 05/20/2013This is my first time using a Mac, at least since I was in elementary school in the 80s! It is an amazing machine, very fast and although the commands seem the exact opposite of Windows PCs, it hasn't taken long for me to figure things out. I love the clean interface and the Mac App Store. I'm a teacher and will primarily use the MacBook for work, so I had planned to buy Office for Mac, but with Pages, Numbers and Keynote, I really don't see the point! They get the job done and more elegantly than Office. Best Buy's price match program is wonderful, so I was able to get it for a lower price. I am very pleased with my purchase!
