Apple Macbook 2010 - Buy It Or Not?

Fall of 2009, a historical moment for computer lovers occurs when Apple Inc. released Macbook, widely recognized as being unibody mobile computer like no others before. Apple Inc. however doesn't stop pushing through the market of mobile computers, and so they added several updates to the existing Macbook and released as Macbook 2010 at spring of this year.

Many of you may know that, Apple Inc. does produce another line of Macbook called Macbook Pro which is considered the 'higher end' Macbook. Apple Inc bridged the gap between Macbook Pros and the usual Macbook by the current Macbook updates. Updates done are mainly on internal specifications and so externally you cannot differentiate Macbook-2009 from Macbook-2010, and at the same price tag of $999, it is a deal fair and square.

Macbook pro is currently sold at the price of $1199. In fact, as from the current updates on Macbook, no average users can tell the differences between home and professional lines in terms of internal specifications. Of course certain gross differences still exists, for instance the casing is aluminum for Professional Macbook, while the Home version are encased by plastic materials. Other minor differences are of course present, for example number of ports available and presence or absence of particular ports.

One way or another, Macbooks in general are equipped with cutting edge operating system, with a design that is appealing to the eyes and technologically distinguished from other computers, one more advantage when you own a Macbook is its extra long battery life. Customer support service are offered by Apple Inc. are as good as their computers and no wonder despite its higher price tag, consumers still tend to choose Macbook. Well, of course, what you pay is what you get, there are certain thing in Macbook Pro that you just can't find in Macbook, fair and square.

A brief conclusion we can give here is that, Macbook retained it's unibody design, which is simple, clean and yet simply eye catching. Additionally, a highly sensitive touchpad is added, and according to certain independent reviewers, this touch pad is by far the second best available on the laptop market today, second only to its sibling, the Macbook Pro's. An impressively long battery life is another advantage of Macbook, lasting up to seven full hours when used continuously. Macbook, as all other Apple computers, has the fastest boot up time, and perhaps this is a favorite feature of people today who are constantly swept away by the fast pace of life.

Now, just as no human is perfect, so as no computer is perfect, the features of Macbook tend to be passed down from one generation to another, which mean, you cannot expect any major changes soon. And yes the price tag is definitely one of its major setback, in comparison to other low end laptop of its class, Macbook is way too expensive, and teenagers and young adults that have only a few pennies in their pocket would surely avoid it. For the price, and the specification, one can pay much less for computer of the same specification of other brand. Mabooks have no SD card reader, only one extra USB port, and one HDMI output.

So, is Macbook worth buying? It is your choice to make!
