Macbooks
School started, and as part of the incentive for coming to this school, we all received “free” Macbooks.
I’ve been playing around with mine, and although I like it better than my Dell Pc, there are a few flaws:
First, the Mac will not eject a CD if you are playing it…yet it automatically starts playing the CD when I tell it to import it to my computer. That wouldn’t be such a big deal, save the fact that while on a PC, there are little pop-ups that tell ignorant people like myself what to do. Apple just leaves you guessing…and it took my roomate and me forty five minutes to guess that we had to stop the CD from playing before it would eject.
Secondly, when you do insert a CD into the slot, two icons come up. Both are for the same CD. When you click on one, and tell it to eject, it says that it is ejecting two CD’s. Um….to my knowledge there is only one CD in there…
Thirdly, why isn’t there a right click or something similiar? I guess clicking control and then hitting the mouse button wouldn’t be such a pain if I hadn’t grown up on a PC.
There really aren’t that many problems… AlI in all do like it better than a PC. The response time for nearly everything is better…internet loading is slightly longer, but the way Safari runs their internet is worth it! I like it sooo much better than IE and Mozilla. GarageBand is so cool, and I pretty much love Dashboard.
I guess to get the perfect world one would have to install Windows on a Mac…then we would have the best of both worlds…and no complaints
