Smart choice

product does what it says it will do
||Posted .I live in a 3rd world country without internet. It is also unsafe to be out after dark and no tv channels where I live. DVD's literally save me, providing entertainment when I need to relax. My new mac does not have a dvd drive so the reason for the purchase. Love it.

Awesome Computer
||Posted .I bought my first MAC computer and so far Love it. I have always bought DELL until recently . I would usually get several years from my DELL but my last one DIED after just over a year (hard drive fried) and actually I had been having problems with it soon after getting it. I was quite disappointed so I decided to go with a MAC PRO!!!!
