Editorial Reviews:

Instead of assembling a notebook from many minor parts, the MacBook was reinvented from just one: the solid-aluminum unibody enclosure. It gets full credit for making MacBook thinner, lighter, and even more stunning. But it's not all beauty. Because of the antibody, this MacBook is also durable. It was designed to take on your world. So slip it into your backpack or briefcase and pull it out wherever you go - it's impressive in any setting.The MacBook uses a graphics processor that economizes space in a whole new way. A traditional computer logic board contains multiple components: the CPU, two chips that control communication throughout the computer, and the graphics processor. The logic board in the MacBook contains only two components: The CPU and a graphics processor with all of the core logic built into a single chip.The beautifully seamless, remarkably thin design isn't the only gleaming quality of the LED-backlit display. Open your MacBook and you're instantly greeted by glorious full screen brightness. The aluminum enclosure is perfectly integrated with a glass overlay that stretches to the edge of the notebook, providing a completely unobstructed picture. Anything you view, including the glossy widescreen display itself, is a spectacular experience. The LED-backlit display is more power efficient. And it's mercury- and arsenic-free, so it's greener than ever.

Summary: Love it
Comment: I've read many reviews before buying this, and I am very happy with my purchase. Great design, just a beautiful machine. Best notebook I have own. Fast, runs windows and Mac OS, has built in mic and camera, upgraded video graphics chip is fast. Love the magnetic power adapter. I don't have any firewire peripherals, so missing a firewire port is not an issue to.
I love the multi-touch track pad. I spend most of my time using it to browse the web. This multi-touch feature makes scrolling around a joy to use. I appreciated it more every time I have to use my girlfriends HP notebook that doesn't have this feature.
My only concern from reading the reviews is about the screen quality. However when I went t to Apple store to see check out the product, the screen looked gorgeous. One of the nicest picture quality I've seen. Maybe I am not an expert in this area, but I am just not able to tell the difference between the macbook screen and a high quality screen. I suspect most people are the same. I would recommend going to the apple store to check it out before buying.
This product is designed for easily upgrading the DRAM and Hard drive. Since I occasionally run Windows XP in virtualization, 2 gb of Ram doesn't feel like its enough. Its nice to know that I can easily upgrade the ram when I want to.

Summary: Could not be happier.
Comment: As with our other Mac products, I couldn't be happier. I was considering an AirBook before this new MacBook was released and I am glad I waited.

Summary: Awesome Macbook
Comment: I love my New Macbook. The best laptop I've purchased in my life . i love everything about it, the slimness, sexy, portability, OS X, and performance. I've yet to experience any problems with my 1 month old Alu. Macbook. Since its my first apple product ever i got use to the OSX very fast and felt ive been missing out all my life, i love the new trackpad, got use to it very fast as well ..its like ive been using it all my life. Basically i love everything about it and i'd recommend this laptop to everyone.

Summary: A great buy for anyone in a creative field
Comment: The MacBook is the perfect choice for anyone in any creative field that's looking for a good, reliable machine to keep them productive. After years of PC use, I switched to Mac's (this being my second) and will never go back to anything other than a Mac. The tools and applications are endless and will help you create what you need to and beyond. Not to mention they're the coolest looking computers out there. I recommend this to anyone and everyone. If you aren't doing heavy-duty stuff, you'll be okay with the lower end MacBook.

Summary: Most Excellent
Comment: What's not to like? Perfect size for traveling.... lots of speed, memory and a nice size hard drive. Runs cool and the battery life is great. The aluminum chassis is easy to keep looking new and feels rock solid. The screen resolution and clarity is awesome...
Cons: None that I have found at this point....
