Unbox Apple MacBook White 2009
Posted in macbook | By AhTim @ December 4th, 2009
The MacBook White 2009 arrived at home yesterday morning, right before I head to work. Without wait a second more, unbox it and bring along to work. 
I placed order on Saturday > order confirmed on Monday > MacBook shipped out (from Singapore) on Tuesday > Received on Thursday. Whole process took 4 business days. Overall I’m satisfied with the delivery speed since it include air shipment.
Basically it is a tiny thin box. Items included are MacBook White, MagSafe Power Adapter, Plug Extension, Installation DVD and Manual. That’s it. Don’t ask for free bag or extra free gifts ok.
Why I Love MacBook?
Performance: It took me half a day to download and install all software I need. Didn’t feel any lag after feed with tons of apps. Boot up takes 33 seconds, shutdown time only 5 seconds. The Intel Core 2 Duo 2.26 processor with 3MB cache and 2GB DD3 RAM make it perform at tip-top condition. (Full specs see here) Launch app and Internet browsing are extremely fast!
Design: If you are not MAC user, sure you don’t know how innovative Apple Macbook. It’s a pleasure to touch the super White Unibody cover, whole laptop in once piece. The MagSafe power adapter with magnet make charging battery a pleasure too. And won’t forget the big Apple logo with light (while in working mode) on its cover. Even the bottom fill up with rubber case to stand firm.
Display: The 13.3-inch glossy LED-backlit display with 1280×800 pixels widescreen brings photos, movies looks brilliant!
Battery: Up to 7 hours! Definitely not every laptop with just 2.13kg can do it. Perfect for a presentation or outing event without a need of power source.
My Two Cents
The HUGE Multi-Touch Trackpad is awesome but not used to it. Feel more comfortable with a mouse. Overall, it’s a perfect laptop for computer intermediate user.
MacBook make me use it like a handicap. 
I was a Windows hotkey user, and now have to learn Mac OS X hotkey from ZERO. If you know any useful shortcut, please tell me in the comment below.

am still kind of confused, what is so great about a mac? I mean, why would anyone pay for something that is twice as expensive with half the processing power.
don’t get me wrong, the design is simply amazing.

@Ngan Plus if you’re into video editing, nothing beats a Mac.

People keep telling me to go for a Mac. I guess it’s just my laziness. I’ll have to make the effort to change at some point!
