  • nice review! i am desperate for a mac and would give anything for one!

  • I watched this when it first came out and went "lol, that was quite informative"

    2-3 years later, I have returned. My reaction? "lol, that was quite informative".

  • Well I'm glad you still enjoy it after all this time. I look like such an idiot looking back at it now.

  • this is the most helpfull so far. i mean i just got on. lol but you persuaded me more. the other ones just like.. iunno confuse me lol yours actually helps.

  • great review!!!! :)

  • apple for gay

  • would the macbook 2gb ram 2ghz run sims3?

  • yea

  • nice. there wasn't any voice lag

  • Thanks for the pros and cons!

    A lot of reviews forget one or the other!

  • dude you are one of the main reasons i bought a macbook because your review was so awesome

  • gamer2502:

    me too! Maybe this guy should work for apple >_> He convinced both of us...

  • This is the best laptop I have ever used in my entire life. I am using one right now (white). 2.2ghz 4gb ram leopard osx!!

  • lol, right after you said firefox kept crashing, firefox crashed on my mac.

  • Hmm...firefox never crashed on mine..safari does though. Actually, Safari is the only program that has ever crashed on my mac.

    But, I know that default browsers on all operating systems (windows or mac) are bad.

  • want a free gaming console?...just send me a message!

  • You remind me of Paul Rudd.

    :]

  • i got the new macbook it has 250 and when i stated it up first time i had 212 gb

  • Some of your space is for the OS(Leopard) and programs. But it should not be that much decreased.

  • Food and computers.... my two favorite things!

  • i second that

  • bloody rubish review

  • does the notebook last long without anything messing up? i hate to hear that some of the notbooks start to break down before a whole year.

  • Ur funny!!

  • you rock

  • i just got my first mac, mostly cause of this vid, but when ever i try to record a video its way crappier quality then your videos. You say you were using imovie, is that a program or a camera. I use photo booth to make my movies.

  • Program, comes with the mac.  You can use Photo booth, Photo booth is for pictures.

  • oh-ho I get it

    macbook

    mac & cheese

    lOLOL

  • I HATE YOU WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU MAKING LUNCH DUMBASS!!!! haha just kidding man sweet review i think its awsome that you make lunch during a youtube video;) umm you hsould make a new one if you even see this comment ... it is 2008 lol but ya umm sweet review

  • Are youre programs set to run when your computer boots itself up..if so thats probably why youre boot up time is slowong down.

  • great review , finally a review that actually reviews the macbook

  • whats the canada review video

  • type in the search box macbook review ,and it will be the second one i do believe

  • I watched this back when it was first posted lol

  • your voice isn't out of sync with the camera. well... not so you can TELL.

  • this is a pretty old review. you sould make a new one that is updated

  • i love macs...windows are too user friendly and treats every user like dumbasses because of pop-ups all of the time.

  • Lol, I thought I got to see the MacBook itself. That's what I was looking for when I searched on YouTube for MacBook reviews.

    Have a good breakfast!

  • Ok review, and mac & cheese I haven't had that sheet since I was like 7!

  • hey man, you mentioned xgl, can you do the cube thing on osx, i know you can on linux, but would it be possible on osx since its not as open as linux?

  • yeah you can.

  • u are kinda of a pissy person????

  • que pasa con las reviews del mac en español puto jankie!

  • All these fucking Macbook reviews are so out of date. The new Macbooks come with more memory standard and bigger hdd. The base Macbook has a 2.1 processor, 1 gig of ram, and 120 gig hdd. The one i'm getting is the mid model that has 2.4 processor, upgrading to 4 gigs of ram, and 250 gig hdd. This model is the best you can get out of macbook. And if you've gota friend in college they can get you a nice discount.

  • hahaha nerd =)

  • wow i need a new notebook....my laptop now runs about 15 minutes before the battery runs out, and the fan doesnt work. i think i'm gonna get this one

  • This is one of the best videos I saw on youtube. I couldn't stop laughing while watching it and it took a while to calm down after finishing to watch it.

    oh, and I liked your critical review.

  • The same thing happens to me with firefox. The weird thing is that the window randomly opens up a while later.

  • Nice review. I especially like that you're cooking in the middle of it, and that you're not fanboy'ing the mac.

  • Wow! Could you BE ANY MORE enthusthaic? lol

  • chandler?

  • This guy has the charisma of a mop!

  • you know everyone hatezs this video. I mean its not so bad. I did see that canadiqan guy though.

  • you know everyone hatezs this video. I mean its not so bad. I did see that canadiqan guy though.

  • Ha! Mine is Core 2 Duo

  • holly shit, exposeyyy???

  • this is prob the worst review. People want to see the macbook. You dont show it. I know you r recording this with imovie and thats y u cant, but still you said all the other reviews were bad. Take a look at yours.

  • you are the most dumbest fucking person on earth, you stupid dumb fuck.

  • you know what, shut the fuck up you dumb canadian

  • Oh and what are you, a soon to be fucking immigrant?, fuck you. By the way i'de rather be Canadian then fucking American any fucking day.

  • I am so not a fucking immigrant. I was born in the US. I would never in a milliom years want to be Canadian neday.

  • Ok guys, we shouldn't judge people whether they're from C-eh-N-eh-D-eh or the *country accent* US of A. We are all citizens of this greenish blue kindof tealy colored planet. so, lets all appreciate our neighbors on this planet

  • Right on dude! =)

  • im getting hungry for some mac n cheese

  • Lol, thats funny!!! I might get a MacBook are they as good as they seem??

  • 60gb hardrive, and you were left with 30?! FUCK! gotta get a big ass hardrive then i suppose

  • haha classic, nice video

  • Windows = games / Hacking software

    Mac OS X = Untitive for creatio

    Linux = Hacking computers / Graphics like compiz fusion!

    Also what is the specs of your MacBook pro

  • he only has a macbook

  • lol idiot.

  • very cool vid

  • Jokes, too bad i couldnt see the actual laptop:( (is that craft dinner>?)LOL

  • Clean ur ram fool

  • You seem like the chillest dude. Those 9:31 flew by quick.

  • i ordered my macbook air. and. well... opps i need to check when they are going to start sending them. i ordered it online 2 days ago. but i am not sure when they start shipping them.

  • "Thats tight" you say that in a funny way

  • on a mac while cooking some mac ... you're awesome

  • nice video. I am also 13 and making money for a MacBook. I suggest making flyers and putting them in peoples mailboxes for walking dogs. If you act all nice you could get paid 20 $ a week and get it in a couple months.

  • Wow! I'm 13 as well, and $20 a week will take a long time to get $1099! I would suggest saving for a iBook G3 or G4. The iBook G3 starts at $150 (Yes. $150 dollars.) And it goes up to $299 for a really nice iBook! Or a iBook G4 starts at $399! Ill post the links here!

  • no i wuld never get an ibookg3 today. they were good for there time and still are good but u can do so much better. G4's ar not bad at all, but still go for the macbook and if your birthday is close then get one for your bday like i did

  • one important question do you need anti-virus softwere? because mac bloat that you dont but nortan make one

  • wat the hell...why is this so slow...and wers the macbook?

  • wow, you are RETARDED. he made the video from the macbook dipsh*t.

  • Very nice. i like that u actually addressed the problems with it. Every other review makes that macbook sound like its all good, no flaws.

    "Anything's pretty much better than windows at this point."

    lol

  • one of the most realistic review made for the macbook , very nice

  • Thanks. Nice, realistic review. Helps me know what options to go for when buying a mac, and what to look forward too.

  • I know NOTHING about macs and have used Windows all my life. I want a macbook as my first mac, but I can't afford it. Especially being 13 with no job lol.

  • Woops. Didn't meen to send it. Wasn't done lol. I forgot what I was typing now :|

    Err.... Well... i still have a question. How can I make money for one?

  • omg u just described me riht there...

    im also 13 and have used windows all my life and i want a macbook but have no money...

  • Seeing as it's illegal for you to be legally employed, do odd jobs around your neighborhood (if it's safe.) Sounds cheesey, but sell stuff like lemonade or kool-aid. Mow lawns, shovel snow, things like that. It won't buy you a Macbook (unless you do it for years), but you'll show your parents you're dedicated.

  • Hm.... Good idea. But I will still probably need to get all the cash for it >_>

  • get a paper round

  • Hey Man;

    We are so in the same page. Nice review. Cooking while reviewing the macbook. . .not bad, makes it look casual, but you covered bases and basics that I were specific to what I would be using it.

    I do a lot of SQL, so your review direction applies to me.

  • a mans got to eat good review

  • dude awesome review. I'm purchasing a macbook in a couple weeks; this is the first review that actually influenced my opinion. But honestly awesome review, you really know your computers. Thanks for the tip on that fan download :)

  • the sound and the image is not lagging. I know what u mean; when i use isight in imovie 08, it lags alot while you capturing it but when you import it and play it, it's normal; plays perfect. About space, i hope u didnt install printer drivers. But anyways, just upgrade RAM; probably be fine then. Good review; unbiased and relaxing.

  • postbreak, with that slow down on the boot up sequence, I'd check to see if my hard drive isn't wearing out or dying gradually. Hard drives slow over time and with yours, it could be the reason for the extended boot time compared to when you first bought it.

  • Man, screw that Macbook! Spend $3,000 and get you a fully decked out Macbook Pro like mine. lol But, hey, at least you bought an Apple computer and not some junk PC from Wal-mart!

  • Yep.Canadians have that power.

  • haha the food looks good im getting my macbook on Christmas and i cant wait

  • macs get viruses...

  • r u retarded mine hasnt

  • Hi im getting a macbook for christmas 07, its got 2.0GHZ, 80gb HDD and a 1gb ram. Please can you tell me the link to the SMC fan control program. as i dont want my macbook bursting into flames in my face :(.

    thanks

    oh yer that i alert u is cool to.

  • So, I downloaded the SMC Fan control program. What is the ideal RPM for the fan? or does it not really matter...

    Thanks.

  • mackbooks are tiiiiggghhhtt!!!no viruses

  • question why would you get a macbook to play games? stick w/ a pc if you're gonna play games

  • yh exactly! i totally agree evry1 nos dat macs r not 4 gaming bu pc s suk so suppose he had 2 get 1

  • Man, Macs aren't used for gaming? Well, I sure have been playing everything from Pac-Man to Neverwinter Nights to World of Warcraft... Yeah, Macs play games just as good as the PC. They run Vista better than the PC does. All you need is Bootcamp, and Macs run games fine.

  • that's why mac's now let you use windows. =)

  • having windows wouldn't necessarily help, the problem is because they don't come with enough power.

  • "if you don't know what XGL is google it..."

    lolololol

  • i hope the canadian guy ur tlking about is geardos, cuz he's convinced me too...i feel bad tho, cuz once i get my beauty, my dad's taking my p.o.s. inspiron 6000 off my hands for his job...i cant wait for this..

  • you say that your macbook took 22 seconds to start up then it slowed down to 40

  • hey dude ..i have a dell desktop from 2004 ...and its turns on in 30 seconds...

  • well it turns out that mine has a manifacture defect unfourtunatly the warrnty worout in 2005 just like you I got in 2004 I tried returnet to the shop I got it from before the wortenty wor out but the shop said that there's nothing wrong with it eventhough I showed them that it takes so long to start up.

    by the way I didn't mean that dell laptops are bad my cuasins have dell laptops but somehow I'm the one who gets stuck with all the bad luck

  • get a macbook youll never have a virus or anything

  • i see

    yea i heard about mac not get virus more or none then windows !

  • Lmfao very true, anything is better then Windows at this point!!

  • cute dude

  • you are hott

  • u aint much better at reviews dude........

  • I got my mac on monday. It's everything I want and more. Good job on the review.

  • 1) Cut your hair..

    2) Windows sucks, people shouldn't waste their money buying their laptops..

    3) I'm going to go the extra $500 and buy the black MacBook, I think

    4) What are the control commands? I couldn't figure them out for anything when I was toying with a MacBook at a local computer store..

  • For example on Windows:

    Ctrl+A is select all

    Ctrl+C is copy

    Ctrl+V is paste...

    How do you do those on MacBook? I did it once and I don't know how I did it :P

  • Command + whatever the key is in Windows is generally the convention. Holds true for more than just copy/paste (undo is Command + Z, blah blah blah). I grew up on Windows and Red Hat; it took me awhile to get used to it, but now I switch back and forth from ctrl to Command with no problems.

  • Command+A is select all

    Command+C is copy

    Command+V is paste

    Bet you feel stupid now :P

  • Windows doesn't make laptops you dumbass, it's just an OS.

  • Thanks fucker, I knew that. My point was still made though, right?

  • Yes it was, there's no doubt that you are a moron and have no idea what you're talking about

  • Lol man, i love the way you so slyly make lunch in the background.

  • nice

  • ill be buying the 1100 dollar one in a few weeks. and thanks to your shapeshifter video, definetly downloading that program when i get mine, for some see through windows and such

    thanks for the video/ videos, helped me make the decision to get a mac

  • Nah man, you don't want the 1100 one. It doesnt have a DVD burner, so iDVD will be usless

  • You did a Great Review. And I though your insight camera had great quality. I have seen people with webcams and all and this far surpasses theirs. Its like so very clear. No pixelation with your isight camera. I kind of want to get a Macbook Pro now.

  • GOOD REVIEW!

  • great honest review! i may just go out and buy one now ;)

  • ANY DISCOLORATIONS?

  • None at all.

  • I love Firefox to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

  • damn straight fuck windows

  • wow, have you recorded this with the isight camera and the microphone?? thats awesome good for integrated devices.

    check out my channel.

  • when u doubled the speed of the fan did it make a diffrence in how hot it got on the bottom? Does it drain the battery since it has to move the fans twice as fast?
