Comments about Apple Customized 15.4" MacBook Pro Notebook Computer (Aluminum Unibody):
I am a graphic designer and photographer. Therefore, I use a lot of heavy hitting software to get the job done. This notebook is simply the best out there. It has a beautiful form, and it functions well--all of the time. It has great speed and a reliable platform. I've used Apple products for many years and it's been an extremely reliable brand with cutting-edge, forward-thinking, trailblazing technology.
I will always recommend Apple to friends and "foe" alike; everyone should be this happy when using a computer.
