Abstract: That doesn't necessarily mean it is a good option. In fact, the Macbook was once considered a bit of an outcast when compared to the Macbook Pro. Apple has made many improvements to the Macbook to address user concerns and now has given the Macbook the sa...
Abstract: Yesterday we got our hands on a 2011 MacBook Air Core i7 with 4G of RAM and a 256G SSD. We ran some preliminary benchmarks and, in the graphs below, compare it to last year's top MacB...
Low System Noise Under Light Use, Unibody Case, Keyboard, Bright, High-Contrast Display, Color Space, Performance, Battery Life Under Light Use
Few Ports, Few Options, Relatively Heavy, Small Enter Button, Loud Under Heavy Use, CPU Clock Downsampled Under Very Heavy Use, Reflective Screen, Short Warranty
Some crucial differences come to light when running Windows 7 via Bootcamp. More heat is produced (although not to critical levels), the battery life is considerably shorter, the transfer rates of ports are reduced and the various benchmark scores are low...
Unchanged Excellent Aluminum Case, Outstanding Keyboard and Touchpad, Good Screen (except for reflections), Quiet Under Light Use
No Matte Screen Available, CPU Downsampling und Heavy Use (Windows), No CPU Turbo Boost in Windows
The extra cost for this more powerful version will really only prove worthwhile for very few users who would probably want an SSD in place as the hard drive as well—which, however, provides for a big boost in speed for any user...
Great overall performance, Decent 3D gaming performance, Amazing battery life, Excellent-quality display, Elegant design, Thunderbolt technology, Sturdy "unibody" design, Multi-touch gesture trackpad, Great Keyboard
Battery is not removable, 1,280x800 native resolution, Fan Can Get Noisy Under Load, No Thunderbolt peripherals available yet
All in all, the new MacBook Pro impressed us on many fronts, not just its performance. It's got a great-looking design, has one of the sturdiest chassis we've seen, a fantastic-looking display, and a keyboard and trackpad that are a pleasure to use. We're...
Speedier processor. Thunderbolt port for a little future proofing. High-def FaceTime camera records 720p video in iMovie. FireWire is still around.
At 1440x900, 13-inch MacBook Air has a higher-resolution display. Built-in battery can’t be removed. No matte display option.
The MacBook Pro is a dream laptop, delivering more power than the Air and more bells and whistles too—the FireWire and Ethernet ports the Air lacks completely, plus that fancier FaceTime camera, and our personal favorite, the backlit keyboard. Thunde...
Stylish And Sturdy Design, Excellent Keyboard, Long Battery Life
Display Panel Offers Below Average Resolution, Glossy Screen Hard To Use In Certain Light, Thunderbolt Adapters Not Included
Mar 9 2011 - Apple's MacBook Pro 13 certainly made some major performance changes in their 2011 refresh. With the new Core i5 processor, this is one of the fastest 13-inch laptops available on the market. This combined with Apple's outstanding battery ...

Solid aluminum unibody skeleton
Solid state drives not included on standard package (128GB SSD can be purchased for additional $250), Only upgradable to 8GB of system memory, No antiglare display option on 13" version (option available on 15" and 17 versions)
After only a week of use, I am getting more comfortable in the OSX environment and how to perform everyday tasks that I would normally do in Windows 7. Being a PC enthusiast, I have a great appreciation for devices that are simple to use and provide the u...
