+ It just works! No mindless warning or error messages, pop-ups, annoying queries, etc
+ Hardware and software are working properly together. Despite the "puny" hardware equipment that brings every 500 Euro laptop with you, a Mac works much faster than a PC (why I do not know, I guess just because hardware and software are ideally matched)
+ Moving from Win on OSX lasts for reasonably intelligent user about 3 days
+ The OSX is a beautiful, fast and intuitive operating system. Do not worry, dear Windows users, you too will thus come clear.
+ OSX brings everything you need (iLife 11). Video editing with iMovie is incredibly easy and looks very professional (Example movies can be found on YouTube, keyword: iMovie). iPhoto with facial recognition and archiving / sorting of all photo collections. iDVD to quickly create a professional-looking slideshow. All this and much, much more already included free of charge.
+ The metal unibody case is beautiful, cool, aufgräumt and a pleasure to touch it (and there are no ugly stickers from Intel and Nvidia on). Fingerprints or wear through the heel of your hand is not possible. I Kucke me a plastic laptop contrast to, I'm afraid that the same thing breaks off or wears out.
+ Photo and video editing run fast and fluid / despite the meager hardware faster than on a laptop
+ The integrated webcam is liquid, has a well-resolved image and is especially strong light (in the dark)
+ The integrated microphone works crystal clear
+ No creaking, no squeaking, no rattling on the hinges of the display
+ A powerful, beautiful screen with great color reproduction
+ Despite the glossy (glossy) display well with back light to read (I have a big window behind me and still can work just fine - despite mirroring). Not understand the hyperbole on this issue after I
+ Battery life of approximately 5 to 6 hours is not only promised, but also respected
+ Whisper. You can hear him humming indeed, but it takes hardly true (that one does not hear him, is wrong). Even under high load only a slight fan buzz. But unlike my laptop, where I thought the same a helicopter lands on the desk.
+ The keyboard is a dream. It is to be able to tap a pleasure it. Even in total darkness can be perfectly and quickly, thanks to the lighting Tap
+ Charging cable with magnetic protection (dissolves instantly from your Mac as soon as you darüberstolpert)
- For a computer in this price range the following should not have been. All computers of the 2010s and the MBP suffer "squaking sound". When pressure around the touch pad it rattles metallically. Although this is a design flaw, Apple claims that this is normal and can not be change. How it sounds and how these sounds is going on, is described here: [...] or can be read in many forums.
- Reads NTSF (Win) formatted USB Drives with additional tool (NTSF for Mac)
- Price (but inexpensive)
- Battery can not be exchanged / only support
- Only one year warranty (wtf?)
- Only two USB ports
- ITunes - a cruel tool
- More and more to get one, thereby increasing the risk that virus programmers write more for Mac (:))
