Macbook???

Dec 02, 2007 by ♥Special K | Posted in Other - Computers

I am planning on purchasing a macbook here in the next few months. I was just wondering what other people thought about them...good and bad.

K

I was an Intel-Microsoft user since 1983 -- until two years ago, when I bought my first Dual G5 for video editing. After that, I never looked back and when I got a new laptop last year I got a Macbook (2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2GB memory). I'm very happy with it. It has a few glitches -- the sleep mode is a bit weird, and sometimes it is hard to wake up (gee it's like me). There was a dreadful update that Apple put out a few months ago that really messed Wifi, but they've since added another patch. The DVD drive can get a little sticky if it is a disc with a label, and of course Appple has this weird thing against two-button mice, so the trackpad has only one button.

But, so far, it's been reliable, does a good job on battery use, and has been tough. My use is mostly web, writing, spreadsheets, some web page development, and PhotoShopping. So I can't address games or high-end graphics (you should get a Macbook pro if you do those things). Good luck!

Macbook Destruction

When Apple refused to honor my warranty, I destroyed my Macbook in retribution.

Beverly HS to require students to buy a MacBook

12.06.10

BEVERLY, Loads. -- Starting in the Fall of 2011, each student at Beverly Dear School will be required to have an Apple MacBook.

The MacBook currently goes for about $900, which is an expense that some parents said they unreservedly cannot afford.

“$900 per lap book per student? That’s bizarre. Who can afford that? Nobody can afford that,” said Lisa McKenna, a mamma of students at the school.

Superintendent James Hayes said officials chose the MacBook a substitute alternatively of a PC because Apple offers great technical support and will be compatible with the new lofty school's computer network.

“The general ambience is very supportive of this,” said Hayes.

Many students approve.

“I think it’s a good idea because a lot of the programs that we use are on Apples, so it allows people to be accomplished to do it at home also if they have their own,” said Jenna Lovasco, a sophomore at the train.

Superintendent Hayes said the school will offer fiscal help and payment programs for any families that need it.
