First: Why another review of a product already on the market almost a year? Well, I bought the laptop in August 2009, so he's probably still for sale. In addition, a review of the old in some degree relevant to the new, and is the second trade there too. So I was quite late when, and the newer MacBook Pros were already widely available. Because I had given might want to replace another laptop my 6 month old Clevo laptop I got to know someone whether the laptop was on sale. I then sold the laptop and I'm going to look at a 14 inch Acer laptop, from which light thin. This is because the one and a half hours of battery life on my old laptop was too little.
When I was at the Media market (okay, there is criticism possible at this store, but they do provide the opportunity for hands-on with the laptop) was watching, I was accosted by a employee with an Apple shirt. Apparently they have there (Groningen) a separate Apple corner. He pointed me to the MacBooks (taking a while tightening the thin & light acers in performance and have less appearance anyway. Specifically I noticed the MacBook (Late 2008 model), which lay with its price of 999 euros within my budget. I then tried the laptop on Friday and not bought. Though I do have some knowledge of Apple systems, I do not want 'on a hunch' spend 1000 euros. seller taught me that when the laptop until Saturday was on sale, so I had to decide quickly ... however brief hands-on did well, and considering I pretty much knew what the laptop technically has up his sleeve (P8600 processor, 2gb ram, nvidia 9400gm, which is better than my right honorable quite capable by me Clevo) hung only on the operating system and the differences between the MacBook Pro and the older MacBook series. Differences between the old model were mainly the better screen and better battery time newer version. Though especially the battery life for me is an important attribute for a laptop (student with lots of time) this was for me not worth the price. Finally on Saturday drove down and bought the laptop, because the operating system seemed to work me pleasant and there are non-for-mac-available applications still a Boot Camp option (to install Windows alongside OSX). After this incredibly long intro anyway but the hard, cold facts (and congratulations that you saved! Till it here.) The first thing you do, of course after you have bought the laptop is to get him as soon as possible out of the box. Now I was in the car, which made it slightly more difficult, and it was Saturday so I've had to deal with. From the laptop altogether until Sunday the chance , the first thing you notice is the small box. A white box which in clear letters stand up what's inside, plus a photo of the laptop. Quickly unpacking, and it appears that everything is packed. Really smart together Situated on top of the laptop, including the two CDs (OSX and Programs), manual, charger and ... that was it actually. There was no remote in, something a macbook still seems to have been the case before. Too bad, by the time that I have a TV and the Mac wants to use as a media center so I will have to buy another remote. pressing the OFF switch and ... nothing! There must be recharged. There was no power in anything, so I came right on the charger to share. The charger that comes with the Mac called the MagSafe adapter. This locks in place by a magnet, so the laptop can safely charge: if someone with his blunt head your cable runs down (which can happen because this is not the longest cable I've ever seen) then click the adapter and flies your laptop through cyberspace. not the first impression of the laptop was so far so good, and after charging I could start discovering features and what the laptop has to features and capabilities. As I mentioned earlier, I'm a lot of traveling student, and I choose my laptops then partly build quality (as far as can be estimated in advance). I had previously read good things about the build quality of the MacBook, which of course the unibody is the most eye-catching. The body is constructed of aluminum, making the chassis feels very sturdy, yet light. In addition, the aluminum-look laptop a basic, no-nonsense look, something I can appreciate. Really at the bottom is that there is a small klikkertje which is a flap of the case is off, leaving a portion of the inside open comes to lie. Here are the battery and hard drive to see, and to change smoothly. As far as I know, this is the newer types is no longer the case, at least the battery is simple and there is less to change quickly. The underside is as basic to here the beautiful aluminum look. One drawback is that the rubber feet are not used but a harder type of plastic. This allows the laptop sliding on a slippery surface. After opening the laptop falls directly on the screen. A wonderful black reflective surface (which when used in brighter obviously a big disadvantage compared to a matte screen), and if the laptop goes out the image framed by a black border with this reasonably subtle MacBook logo. The hinge that allows the screen behind the laptop hangs rather it is a characteristic trait outward, and the width is firmly on the good and the display remains stand in a certain way. Besides these larger issues Of course there are also the small details like the small round OFF switch, which is not conspicuous (another example of subtlety), the standby light (with stand barely noticeable because the light is behind the body, which again very small holes in it through which the light comes out), the button on the left which LEDs indicate how much battery time you have to be good about), etc. All in all, these properties are very good for each other in this laptop. input of the laptop: microphone, keyboard and trackpad . To start with the middle: the keyboard is different than I'm used to. The keys are flat and have a gap, which is getting used especially in the beginning. After a while, if you're used to it, however, enter pretty well. I secretly prefer a real keyboard, but this is of course a laptop is not really an option. Another striking point on the keyboard backlight. Now this is not at all MacBook models available, but on this version it did. And I'm glad! In the dark type very nice and quiet, because I'm not blindtyper. In addition, of course, and it remains a real eye-catcher. A final note on the keyboard's Caps Lock. These stores only if you "convincingly press", so to accidentally strike the Caps will lack it. The green LED in the button indicates whether or not turned on. The trackpad is a distinctive part of the MacBook (and later versions). Instead of the small trackpads with buttons that you often see (even on the old (white) types) there is a large trackpad put on the laptop, which seems to be made of glass. This trackpad has been wonderful in size, making it easy to mice, and there are of course the multitouch capabilities. These give a very nice control, so I just grab the mouse when I just got it on the desk. The following movements I use the most:
