I bought my first macbook (this one!) about a year ago. Mostly because they just looked and seemed better, and my old pc gave up on me. But now i have one - i would never go back to using a PC. I find this Macbook so reliable, load up time and general actions are quicker, every things easy to access - and things like imovie and garage band come as standard and are really decent programs. Considering that i'd never even used any apple based computing system before - i found it so easy to pick up and didn't face any problems! Had one issue with it - the track pad went a bit funny, and i was unable to use it, but because it was within the year - they fixed it for me and sent it back no problem within 10 days. I literally wouldn't know what to do without it! Its like an extension of my body now!
