MacBook's anyone?
I only expect people to post about THEIR MacBook Pro's if anyone has a MacBook feel free to post also, I am not here to be persuaded on my decision frankly I could also careless if you do since I have researched enough about it why I want one over the last few months.
Do you guys your MacBook's? What about the Pro's?
Is the battery life good? Does it load fast? Do you think you wasted money? Is it fast? Is Boot Camp easy enough to use, or is it better to use Parallels?
Thanks!

I have macbook, from 7 years with windows then to mac its a big change. I do like my mac but sometime i wish for a windows. My hard drive crashed on my desktop and havent had time to fix so i have been just using my macbook. I'm mostly connected to an outlet but the battery life is about 4 hours. There still tons of things i havent learned about my mac book, learning something everyday.

Awesome! I love the fact now I have almost every browser! (If Linux has a special one.) If you have MSN I would love to talk to you about your MacBook! MSN: garrett@xhtmlthis.com and do you suggest any software? Why Didn't you choose a MBP? Money?

yeah according to appleinsider theres an update coming soon so unless u really need it bad i'd wait a few months so u could either a) get the new version that comes out or b) get the current version which should be a bit cheaper once the new one is out.
and about the screen, i dont have one, but i've seen one b4 and i'd get the matte. the glossy is cool, but sometimes it reflects too much light like on a CRT with the glass screen. so if ur in a bright room or near a light source u might see the light's reflection on the screen. so i'd get matte, it's like regular LCD screens. also glossy can get fingerprints and smudges easier so its harder to keep clean.
but i havent really used it so i dunno it might not be that bad.

Updates...There will be another one after that, and that. Santa Rosa will probably be next int he upcoming updates at WWDC. But nothing drastic will change.
Theyre both very good machines (I have both) and theres nothing tthat beats them both in terms of something portable.
Garrett, you know my thoughts - Im speaking to you on msn now.

This machine does what I want it too, plus I am ready to dish out the 2,000$ yes, but I will get Apple Care, and if something "happens" maybe I will get shipped a new one.
