Customer Review

The Retina MacBook Pro with 8GB is perfect for me to see all the tasks which arise in the study for me to cope efficiently. This model represents for me among the very high-priced MacBooks is the perfect choice. Through its strong hardware it has enough power to even in 5 years reserves have to work. The Macbook Air models are excreted for me for just this reason. These have in the basic configuration only 4GB of RAM - that could be close in a few years, but has not. The connectivity of the Macbook Pro are also unbeaten in their own ranks. The size of 13 inches is sufficient to work when it is time demanding I use in addition an external display via HDMI.

If a program can really be found only for Windows, this presents no problem. About Parallels I have created a VM with Windows 7. This runs ironically faster than any Windows 7 computer before I ever had (and there were a few ...). How exactly can be, unfortunately, I can not explain. Although I have found only a fraction of the resources available to the virtual machine, my Quad Core Win7 computer pulls the Macbook anyway - sadly - all from.

The display is of course pleasing to the eye and has to get used to it no longer wants to be there as soon miss. In certain extent makes the higher resolution, the work on the 13 "screen but also enjoyable. The format is pretty much the same size as a sheet of A4 paper. So perfect for the student messenger bag.

To hedge, I got myself a Protection Plan, which extends the warranty to 3 years. It can always happen that you caught a Monday model, something there is, unfortunately, still, yes ... If the first three years have shown no error, it is likely that you have caught a good model. Unfortunately it is quite difficult without a Protection Plan be right, or at least get a fair solution should be something in that time after 13 months. The Apple support is known not to be the worst, so I see the 150 as a sensible investment.

I would again at any time pick as it combines elegant for the ideal features a Macbook.
