Sweeeeet ! ! ! !

 

This is a great laptop with the exception of all the adapters you will need to purchase for device connections - lcd projector, dvi monitor, ethernet. And don\'t forget no DVD drive. Apple will suck every last $$$ they can out of you. If you perform...

Huge improvement over inexpensive ASUS

 

I finally had enough of my frequently crashing, bargain basement ASUS laptop. I have used Windows exclusively pretty much since version 3.11. It finally took an Iphone 5 to get me to venture into the MAC world. I was also spooked by the negative...

Yes

 

I honestly just looked these up to see people talk trash about them haah.

An OK laptop all around

The thing everyone keeps mentioning which is the heavy apple tax. But that's to be expecting from this website because 99% of people around here are building their own computers for 1/2 the price of this thing and double the performance

Seriously?

 

got this for my wife, was thoroughly not impressed at all. besides the battery life, operating system and mediocre SSD and the so called Retina screen which is a major marketing gimmick, like peak power vs RMS true power ratings in car audio. Nothing...

Its a mac, prestige, looks, w/e else is associated with the mac name ; Stable, simple to use operating system ; lots of apps ; battery life ; Good Digital Audio Codec (DAC) for clean sound

My favorite laptop

 

Once you get over the sticker shock compared to other laptop offerings, its all good news from there. This is a great piece of hardware! Fast startup, and combination of long battery life with a speedy, reliable sleep / wake functions make this machine...

Best laptop out there, period.

 

My first laptop (I've worked with Macs and PCs since the 80s); used primarily for professional purposes. Work colleagues and peers use it, industry-wide. Syncs to my iPhone5. Apple gets it right, through and through. Only criticism is that like all...

Terrible

 

I bought into the Apple hype but should've thought about it more rationally. For what you pay its not really worth it IMO.

Light, portable, battery life

Slower than 1000 dollar Windows laptop. High res screen is useless because the built in card is junk for how much you are paying and can't keep up. Less upgradeable then PC laptops. Apple often solders hardware onto the motherboard. The parts that you...

Very good versatile computer

 

Like the speed, versatility, capabilities display and backlit keyboard. Would like more USB ports, but I recognize this is a compact computer. Size and weight make it easy to transport. Based on recommendations from "Apple Mike", the Apple...
