This computer was on sale for Christmas and because of the new retna display mac pro's that have just come out. I like the 500 GB hard drive. I needed a computer to replace my 2007 mac lap top. This is an upgrade for me. I liked the price and it will meet my needs. I will only buy MAC computers, the window base seem cheaply made and tend to get viruses. I have never hada. Virus on my Apple Computers. I own this laptop ans a MAC Mini. I Love them both. I will buy a retna display laptop when the price comes down.

Recently changed from Windows to OS. So far the learning curve has been fairly smooth. The keyboard functions are a little different than windows, but overall I like my new Macbook Pro. Very stable with a good battery life. The only negatives are the very small font size that can only be adjusted using the preference settings for each individual app and no insert/type over function for the keyboard.

Bought this for our 13-year-old daughter for Christmas. She loved it and we like the option of the CD drive that came with it. She loves to make YouTube videos and loves the iMovie that's installed on the computer.

Computer itself was very easy to set up. I have had quite a bit of problems with microsoft though. I am not sure if it is the computer or microsoft. The documents take awhile to load and occasionally microsoft will have me "validate" my microsoft, even though I did that originally.
Computer is good, very user friendly. I went from only ever owning PCs to the Mac and had to type a 25 page paper in a week, the transfer was a little tricky learning all the new techniques but in total I would recommend this computer.

I just purchased this laptop when Best Buy was having a sale and student discount. So, I was able to get this for a great deal. I had an old Macbook Pro from 5 years ago and its improved significantly from that piece of junk. The battery last long even when watching movies and surfing the net. One major difference was the sound on the new on was not as loud as my old macbook. I ended up purchasing a USB speaker when watching movies or listening to music. Other then that, I have had no issues with this laptop.

After 25 yrs + of using MS computers, the ever changing and non performance enhancements of the MS machines got me to looking into a MAC. I must say that I was a little apprehensive to using a MAC, but after using the iPhone and iPad, and having no real complaints from using those, even though they are touch devices, I decided to take a free beginners understanding seminar on the MAC and then purchased a MAC and I have certainly not regretted it one minute. I did not like the idea of using two separate computers until I could get used to the MAC, because some software is just not available for the MAC, and then I found out that Apple makes it very easy to install a full version of Windows on the same computer and use either the MAC OS or Windows when needed. This worked out excellently as I have a ton of software that I have already purchased for the Windows machine and a few of them are just must haves, and after installing a section on the MAC Pro, I now have the best of both. Windows 7 when I need it, and MAC OS X when I need it. Works great and now wish I had made the jump to MAC years ago. If you are somewhat intimidated by the MAC because you have not used one, go by any Best Buy and start playing with one of the demo MAC computers and you will see that it is not hard to learn. Take a short, free, beginners lesson from any of the professionals and you will agree. While the price of a MAC is somewhat higher than an MS machine, the support, operation, quality and appearance show up with the price.
