Perfect notebook computer for both novices and professionals
+ Great operating system (rock-solid and very fast)
+ Great usability (superb GUI concept)
+ Excellent hardware and software quality. I don't know any Windows-based notebook that reaches the overall quality of this notebook.
+ Many high-quality open source and freeware applications available for download
+ Good compatibility with Windows and Linux/*BSD application data and networks
+ Available with 3-year Apple Care plan (costs extra)
+ Suits both novices (nice and intuitive GUI with great usability) and pros (Unix toolset, Bash, OSS etc.)
+ Excellent sound/DAC quality, good screen quality
+ Great keyboard quality
+ Great connectivity
+ It's the most silent full-featured notebook computer I've ever checked out
+ The very fast GPU (ATI Radeon Mobility 9700) fully compensates for the fast-but-not-fastest CPU (G4 1.5 GHz) as Mac OS X leverages the GPU's power for the GUI as well
+ Support is good in general, but there are (seldom) exceptions to the rule.
If you're a novice or pro looking for the highest available quality in both hardware and software and agree that quality has its price, you'll be very happy (as happy as I am :) with this notebook.
