I wasnt sure what to expect when I found this refurbished MacBook, but it works amazingly. It's faster than my 2014 Samsung laptop, smooth, and picks up wifi better than my cell phone! Just dont forget its refurbished so there are scuff marks, cracks, and plastic fill in pieces, but the system and functionality worked great for me. I purchased 2 of them and one of the screens was a little yellower, the mouse buttons were also a little lopsided. Both of the ones I ordered came with a charger.

I thought this was a decent computer at first aside from the visible aspect (it had several very noticeable cracks and many scratches all over as well as dirt all over) and now it is saying I need a new battery. I have only have it since September so I am incredibly disappointed. I think this is a hit or miss kind of purchase and obviously the one I received was not a hit. Really contemplated sending it back when I first received it and obviously that would have been a good idea!

The Ad says "very good condition" but to be honest, it's pretty beat up. Scratched screen, badly scratched top, not sure I would order it again and depending on what my son says, may be returning it.

Cool laptop for the price - but the OS is out of date and you will see security warnings for your browser everywhere. I suggest upgrading the OS to Linux to extend the life of these things.

5.0 out of 5 stars MacBook, Perfect Size & Power
Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2008
Verified Purchase
I went back and forth between the MacBook and MacBook Pro. Which one? Will it be powerful enough? Big enough...?

Maybe a Sony Vaio would be better?

I'm a Windows software developer but I'm going back to school for my MBA and I wanted a smaller, simple notebook for papers and internet communication for classwork. It needs to be durable and I need it to work without a lot of fussing around with system bits.

After much research I chose the MacBook over the pro because of the smaller size and the fact that the aluminum on the pro although cool, can dent easily. The matte black finish on the MacBook is elegant, tough, and the build quality it top notch. Does the the black eventually get smears on it from your hands and fingers? Yes it does but just wipe them off every so often. It's not a big deal.

IMO, aside from a few points in processor speed the major technical thing the Pro gets your over the MacBook is a dedicated video card. The card in the MacBook uses part of your system memory and that's not a big deal if you aren't doing complex things like 3D Rendering or gaming. Even most photo editing tasks on the little MacBook will work well *if* you have enough RAM. I recommend 2GB or more.

My MacBook arrived and I couldn't be happier. I personally think the black is nicer looking than the aluminum model. And this thing is fast! It makes my dual Intel Windows tower at work seem pokey. The glossy screen probably has more glare than a matte screen but the trade off in weight and size is well worth it.

Also the built in wireless Airport is great and reception is wonderful. Just turn it on and available networks show up in your menu. It's really so much nicer than Windows. The bonus is that I can dual boot with BootCamp and run all my Windows stuff when I need to. I installed Neo Office (open source office suite) and now I can open and create all the documents for my coursework.

Don't fool yourself into thinking the less expensive MacBook is less worthy for general computing tasks than the more sophisticated pro. It's very elegant looking and very powerful. If you don't need the power and size of the pro, I think you'll be happy and the money you save can be put toward other things. Maybe a new digital camera?

4.0 out of 5 stars From PC to Mac...almost
Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2008
Verified Purchase
You know what? It just works. Why 4 stars? It could have included a basic office suite - like an iWorks Lite. Now this wasn't TOO critical for me as I knew it didn't come with an office suite and I primarily wanted this for writing, I had planned on downloading Open Office (I have and the writing module, at least, works well). Also, some things have just not been as intuitive as I thought they would be. I haven't used an Apple in many years. As my 8 year old desktop PC (built it myself) is about out of steam and in need of a new build I started to shop for parts. I have also been more seriously pursuing my creative writing over the past two years and was thinking about a laptop. Until a few months ago I figured it would be a Windows based machine - I HAVE NOTHING BUT THE UTMOST RESPECT FOR XP - IT HAS BEEN FLAWLES FOR YEARS AND I LEAVE MY MACHINE RUNNING 24/7. Then I got to play with a Mac. Hmmm. After some reading and the desire to learn a new operating system (and frankly to see just what all the fuss was REALLY about) I decided I would dive in to the Apple corner. I still have no desire to give up my PC desktop - yet. Now that I have the Mac and have moved iTunes to it, I started to clean my old system and realized that the Mac probably bought me another year with my desktop. At that time I might decide to go all Mac - WAY too early to tell. A few things I really like:

-The machine starts and is ready to use SO quickly that leaving it on in Sleep mode vs. Shut Down is a crisis for me when I am walking away!

-iTunes works faster than I can think! Now I know this is an Apple program and I was using it on an older, bloated (PC) machine that took forever for iTunes to start, but when I click on a song now it starts as I click! It is as if the songs are in flash memory instead of the hard drive. Is this possible? I even tried jumping from song to song to song and they start as I am clicking. That's incredible.

-The slickness factor. Things like Spaces are cool. I didn't think I would use that - but I find that I do and it is especially helpful on a small laptop screen. There are other nice touches like the keyboard which is very comfortable and I am especially impressed by the keys - something that jumped out at me right away. I have used other laptops for work and even my wife's that is quite large and the keys are not nearly as nice as these. I can't really explain it other than they are low and smooth. There are many intangibles in the slickness factor.

A few things that could be better:

-Slot covers. I live in a dusty area and we have two big dogs. As soon as I saw the open USB, Firewire, et al, slots, I was concerned. Now it is too soon to know if they are going to be a problem, but a tip from the digital camera that my wife has - small rubber plugs attached to the body that you pop out (and they stay attached) until you are done would be nice and keep the look clean when everything is covered (and protected). And before anybody says anything about them breaking off or falling out - she has had the camera for about 4 years and we both use it a lot and never has anything fallen off and they still fit their respective holes snugly. I am sure Apple could do as well if not better.

-Cover cont'd - it's a laptop - it's going in your briefcase or backpack or nothing, maybe. It just should have a protective skin - period. It should at least come with something simple. I am quite certain that whatever Apple would package with it (if they ever do) would meet no ones needs - this is why the accessory market is so HUGE and profitable. I knew that I would be carrying this in my backpack and to avoid things scratching it (or poking in to the slots) I purchased the Tucano Second Skin. It absolutely does nothing else but protect my Macbook and exceeded my expectation by actually having a little thickness padding my investment. If I have read the design correctly, the little flap inside (which I had no idea of before I got it) goes over the edge of the computer to keep it from sliding out when you unzip it. Nice touch.

-Volume - preset or some way to control when off. Sometimes it is like a commercial blaring on after a quiet passage from a T.V. show. Either when I am turning it on or when I click on something that produces a sound effect, if I forgot to turn down the volume before, I get surprised. Now it's a laptop with tiny speakers in the back - it isn't shattering my ear drums, but would be nice if I had something more automated as so many other things are.

As I continue to live with and learn the computer I am sure there will be many more things that I learn and like and I am also certain that the plusses will greatly outweigh the minuses.

By the way, did I use (like this) too many parentheses?

Hope this was helpful!

I am a software engineer with twenty years experience developing system services for MS Windows and generic UNIX platforms. For the last ten years, my experience has been with MS based servers and workstations. The last time I used an Apple personal computer was in 1980 when I owned an Apple II+.

On a whim I purchased a MacBook running OS X 10.5.2 for my wife who has virtually no computer experience and avoids all things computer. She was not happy with my home MS Windows systems and she was not happy with the available portable computers running windows.

She has taken to the MacBook like a duck takes to water. She likes the package design, the display, and the desktop layout. She does not have the experience to appreciate the thoughtful interfaces and bundled applications that come with OS X. She just knows the entire package is enjoyable and not intimidating.

Me - I like the UNIX foundation to OS-X. Knowing the internals of both operating systems, UNIX is the clear winner when it comes to reliability, durability, predictability, consistency, and security. Additionally, UNIX (with its open source variants) does not suffer from conflict of interest between operating systems and applications. One always wonders if some MS Windows quirk exists to solve a development problem in some MS application. I quickly put the terminal icon on the MacBook desktop so I could indulge myself with the UNIX shell command line any time I want ;-).

I installed a third party wireless router and configured internet services on the MacBook in a few minutes. I also added a third party optical bluetooth mouse in about thirty seconds. It took longer to install the mouse batteries than configure the MacBook bluetooth capability.

Apple has a very solid package with the current MacBook. There is little that one needs to add to the MacBook. It comes with just about every hardware interface available today. It has ample processor, RAM, and hard disk storage for average users. It comes with dual layer DVD RW. The bundled suite of applications is adequate for the full spectrum of casual computing (e.g., web browsing, email, chat, word processing, photo/video/audio processing). Apple stuff is a bit pricy but you receive the value you pay for.

If you want a good comprehensive companion book for your MacBook, I recommend David Pogue's "Mac OS X Leopard: The Missing Manual". This book is large and contains much technical detail but is very well written. It is not for the casual computing novice that finds reading and comprehension tedious.

I have used Apple support one time and found the wait to be acceptable and support engineer to be competent, efficient and attentive. I have used MS support many times over the years and found them to be equally capable.

I have not found anything I dislike about the MacBook after thirty days of usage. My wife, however, would like the Apple logo on the lid to glow red instead of white when the MacBook is powered up.

3.0 out of 5 stars Expert Windows User - not impressed with Mac
Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2009
Verified Purchase
After watching so many Apple's ADs that downplay Windows/PC, i was expecting Mac to be wonderful when switching over from Windows. I bought the "BlackBook" - a fairly powerful Mac with 250GB HD and 2.4GHz Core2Duo. Also bought the Switching to Mac Missing Manual. As a previous Amiga user and now an expert Windows user/developer, i was not impressed with it. The most irritating part was lack of keyboard controls - you have to use the mouse with this one to carry one task or the other. I am used to using keyboard for everything but not on Mac. Its like a BMW forcing you to use iDrive to control radio, AC, and all vs. providing separate dedicated buttons for quick access to all features. I also find it to be a little on the heavy side - weight wise. Finally i feel they skimped on documentation. There is no document (even in PDF format) that explains the Shell commands or all the utilities that came with it. If you connect an external HD, good luck trying to figure out how to format it. And once you find the appropriate utility (in Root->Applications->Utils), there are 6 different types of formats - which one should you use? Good luck, no documentation as to what are the differences between them. There's also an AppleScript built into it but again no documentation for it. You have to buy all the books separately if you want to use those features.

If you are stumped by technology, i'd recommend buying one of those $300-$400 EeePC or similar units that provides all the basic functionality that one needs. New models are coming out even with full version of Windows. If all you need is browse the Net, send and receive emails, do word processing etc. - those lightweight (and affordable) sub-notebooks are perfect for you.

On the plus side, I like the fact that now the MacOS is based on Unix and that it can also run Windows. Its plenty fast and played FullHD video clips without any hiccups - even when running on dual monitors. Startup and shutdown times are real short. Design is simple and clean - not a single sticker placed on the laptop. Even the the underside has just a two-liner neatly printed than various stickers and gazillion serial numbers. Turn a single locking switch and unlock the battery, expose hard drive and RAM for easy upgrade. Battery has LEDs to show how much juice is remaining. No cooling vents on underside, just a thin slot at the back and i have read that the reason the keys on keyboard are designed with so much gap and openings under them is to serve as heat escape. But that means you should probably not use some keyboard skin/cover as that would cause it to heat up. Meaning your laptop is always at risk of spilled liquids.

If there is a blaring bug in Mac it is the iSight camera - once i used it in say PhotoBooth, everytime i restart my Mac the camera comes on by itself and showed "busy". I am no longer able to use it! Initially shutting it down completely and restarting it used to fix this issue but now it seems like the only way to fix it is to zap the system PROM by unplugging the battery and holding power button for 5 seconds and then putting the battery back in. Read other forums, it is a common problem.

True you don't have to worry about antiviruses on Mac (for NOW) but instead of paying $$$$ for Mac, i'd rather pay less than five hundred dollars for a PC and buy a $30 anti-virus for it. BUT if you are going to spend same amount of money on a Windows laptop as this one then by all means go ahead and buy it: you can still install Windows on it and enjoy 2 machines in one for around same price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Back to Mac...this time for good!
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2008

I had owned Macs in the past, but always thought they were too slow compared to PCs. Apple has long been at the cutting edge of industrial design, but I found the cost of their computers to be too high relative to the performance. I can happily say that I no longer feel that way. After spending time in my neighborhood Apple Store, I finally felt comfortable enough to buy another Mac and I am beyond pleased!

First of all, the latest version of OS X is a fantastic operating system. Everything just works. I have had no crashes or other inconveniences in the month I have owned this laptop. I turned it on and it found my network instantly. All three printers were recognized and drivers were installed without having to fumble around with CDs or going to the printer manufacturer's websites.

I added an additional 2GB RAM because I wanted to run multiple operating systems. After installing the RAM and VMWare Fusion, Windows XP runs virtually alongside OS X with no noticeable impact in performance for either OS. I haven't had much reason to use Windows lately, but it's nice to have it ready without needing to reboot. (Of course, if you're a gamer, a PC is still probably the best platform for you)

Apple is now king in this household and we are in the process of making the switch permanently to Macs for everything. The initial cash outlay is still higher than a comparable PC, but you get what you pay for. Luckily, Amazon offered a small discount plus rebate on this when I ordered. After saving 7% in sales tax vs. buying locally and free shipping with Amazon Prime, it was downright cheap. All I know is I'm ecstatic and I'm not looking back!
