Bought my 2.0ghz unibody Macbook late last year straight from the Apple Store, bought 4 gigs of ram from crucial and I've never been happier.

This thing renders video in an acceptable amount of time. It runs Fable (not a gamer whatsoever, but I'm happy to see that it runs it). It processes audio for podcasts. It handles multiple apps with multiple tabs at once. It runs both a 20" and 23" ACD beautifully. It's lighter than the 12" powerbook it replaced. The glass, multi-touch trackpad took a bit to get used to, but i love it. Even the keyboard, which I was unsure could computer with the best keyboards ever (the aluminum powerbook line) is fantastic.

Safari 4 beta crashed a few times, but that's it.

For <$1500 total, what the hell more could you expect from a laptop?
 
Just to play devil's advocate (I own the same laptop you have as well)

For the price, I'd have liked to see FW and a decent screen. The screen was fixed in May, which is a bunch of bull as far as I'm concerned. If they knew it was crap from the start why use'em, but oh well :(
