Avis sur le produitApple MacBook Pro A1286 15.4" Laptop - MD104LL/A (June, 2012)

I love this laptop. Exactly what i want.

I bought this laptop for som any reasons. It has a sustaniable, sleek design that will stand the test of time. It has a POWERFUL Core i7 processor, with a real decent 15 inch screen. The Mountain Lion OS keeps me organized, and it makes multitasking on one screen possible and very fluent. Its VERY VERY easy to maintain, and if you really wanna get a kick out this computer, upgrade to a SSD (Solid State Drive) and add more memory (Upgradable to 16GB of RAM, no matter what Apple says). Im a college student, and I work 30 hours a week, and i cant help to bring my MacBook just about everywhere i go (even to church)!

LIKE- Design, Power, Applications (Final Cut Pro, Evernote are my favorites), The Mountain Lion OS.

HATE- Battery, the fact that it isn't a touch screen.Lire l'avis complet...

Lots of ports

This model was the last one to have a built in Ethernet port. It has a SD reader, first generation thunderbolt, Firewire - this is what a "Pro" actually needs - connectivity. As apple seems to like to do, they have stripped away connectivity from the later models, forcing you to buy dongles for about any connectivity. I use mine for Audio and video production and post production. I view the newer models as targeted for "pro-sumer" where thinness seems to be perceived as desirable. this older model suits my needs better than anything that has come after - my recent purchase was actually forced by the ultimate logic failure of my original one (purchased new).Lire l'avis complet...

Great and a must have. Windows will get a little hot, also buy antiglare.

Pros: Everything
Cons: Very glossy screen (Buy antiglare film), also will get little hot with Windows

Had the October 2011 model and this one is different. Two interesting facts in the 2012 model is that I realised that the screen is one degree brighter! though it was the standard screen. Also, there is absolutely zero fan noise even while browsing and opening word documents unlike in 2011 model.

I installed VMWare Fusion 5 and ran Windows XP on it. Its fantastic and works exactly like the Windows OS machine. Good thing this machine has 8GB RAM. I suspect it will be less hot if you Bootcamp Windows instead of fusing it with Mountain Lion. Also, no fan noise with Windows when using normal web browsing and documentation.

I also installed an SSD and Mountain Lion boots in less than 12seconds. Faster than the retina! My only recommendation is buy an antiglare film like the Moshi iVisor Pro which will reduce glare and will not harm your eyes.Lire l'avis complet...

Fabulous Product! Glad I bought it!

As a long time PC user and video editor, I was tired of video editing software that ran slow on a PC. I have friends who raved about their Mac's speed and ease of use when working with video editing software. I was reluctant at first, as I have many PC programs and I didn't want to give up access to them. After 2 months of use I am a believer! My Mac renders videos quick and I didn't have to give up access to my PC programs, thanks to VMware Fusion (ran in seamless-mode, of course). Windows runs great on a Mac, but even on my high-performance PC tower, OSX never ran that well on Virtual box. Last of all, the ability to create a bootable clone backup of my Mac's HDD on an external USB drive makes a rare computer crash on a Mac a breeze to be up and running in less than 2 minutes.Lire l'avis complet...

Excellent buy

It's the last great MacBook Pro before they started the whole retina models, with integrated memory, storage, and less upgradability. This is the maxed out version with a 2.7 ghz quad core i7 that supports the Metal framework, 2K graphics, 16GB of 1600 MHZ Ram and 6GB/s transfer speeds on the drive. Compared to modern systems it holds up pretty well.Lire l'avis complet...

Will run latest OS

I’m pissed Apple decided we don’t deserve to upgrade our own laptops. You’d buy the cheapest model only really focusing on the processor & purchase memory and SSHDs later as you could afford it. Now you pretty much have to pull the trigger upfront.
Also one of the last to include a built in Ethernet port. Is thinner/smaller always better? Maybe I want to pull the DVD drive & install a 2TB storage drive?
Will run latest “metal framework” architecture so it’s still getting update support from Apple.
I’d like to see Apple offer a retro model designed for enthusiasts that incorporates the latest display & connectivity technology and also has screws on the back for user maintenance. Until then I guess this is it.Lire l'avis complet...

Definitely better than expected

It feels as though I basically purchased a brand new computer. Half-jokingly, I want to say that the dents are special to me. They were the ones that made this computer fit perfectly within my budget. Also I find it awesome to know that these dents were there because it fell on stones, which were probably sold by my seller, who sells stones. Isn't that awesome?! Thank you so much for this bargain. Best regards to you and your stones.

Great product! Easy to use with great technical support.

I have been very pleased with this product. This is my 2nd MacBook and the main reason I purchased this is one is because of the bigger hard drive and screen. Once you get used to using a Mac iOS, it's very easy. The case is definitely much more solid than the Windows laptops I have had. It boots up very fast and accepts external devices very easily. One big difference is using iCloud to sync everything up with my iPhone. I can add something to my computer and it automatically sends it to my phone. FaceTime is great, also. Overall, I have no complaints about switching to Apple products.Lire l'avis complet...

Just Brand New!
