Review

The laptop is an amazing one. Only a couple complaints

-No redesign
-trackpad is too small ( I like the air trackpad)
-Have to buy remote

Good Things

-Fast
-Powerful
-Light
-Thin
-Reliable

But I still have some questions...

-What are some good widgets?

i rarely ever use my remote. i'm sure that's why they made it an option since it's rarely used by most users.

congrats though...up the ram to 4 and you'll be very very happy with it.

I would get it replaced, go to a apple store and see a genius about a exchange.

You paid alot of money for your mbp, so it should be perfect

i rarely use mine as well, pretty much never. Good thing I have 10 of them from all 10 exchanges from the headachy mbp yellow defects and screens. I got 3 sitting infront of me on my desk still in original packaging! And rest of 6 somewhere else with 1 opened which I'd love to use on my mac pro (which doesnt work) or does it?

This should be reason enough to use the remote.

See it in action.

you can also use the remote to control Keynote presentation, of which, as a student, I found it very useful
