Hell’s yes. What more do you want from them? It even supports running an external screen while closed (which only the PowerBooks could do before), and video spanning incase you want to run two monitors. Buy it, and get a giant monitor, and you’re set.
this will be my next computer purchase. sadly.
i’m very annoyed they made the black one more expensive for no reason. the keyboard also looks a little odd (like it’s sealed) and it’s not backlit which is a shame
that really is a weird looking keyboard
I’m tossed up on it. The black tax is truly annoying, but I really don’t like the huge white apple logo on the back of the black laptops. It should have been a different shade of black.
I think I’m just gonna wait for the 12″ MacBook Pro (fingers crossed)
My cousin pointed out that the MacBoook doesn’t have a dedicated Video Card, it has one of those integrated, probably piece of shit, ones. I don’t know how I missed that the first time I looked at the specs.
holy crap, you’re right.
unless you’re gaming on it, does it matter?
It probably isn’t a big deal. Benchmarks over at Macintouch were quite favourable. Still, a dedicated video card is always nice.
