I got my white 2.0ghz Macbook yesterday...free shipping from apple took 2 days :eek: I got my 2gb ram from newegg today and this thing is amazing. No Moo's, no whine, its not that hot...and this thing is FAST! My old rev A iMac is nothing compared to this. The only thing I don't like is the edges are kinda sharp, but thats nothing and I barley even realize it. This computer rocks!

I have a black MacBook, 1 GB RAM, no problems, and as you said, is faster than my Rev. A iMac G5.

I bought the 2GHz (White) with 1GB Crucial RAM. Mine's perfect as well. Tonight I finally broke down and got an iPod nano so my MacBook could have a friend :p

nice to hear a good report... hope i can report the same early next week when my 17" MBP arrives

I know...I think that all the people with good ones are hiding...and all the people with problems tell everyone 3-4 times.

Guess you just have to accept that a few will find their way through. :p

I haven't even seen a MB yet, last weekend none of the Apple Centres had them in stock :confused:

If I thought I could faithfully get a MB and would run Adobe CS3 (when it it released next year), Corel Painter and such then I'd probably get one. But as it is (and knowing Apple's revision update history) I'm sure when CS3 is released a new revision MB and MBP would well and truly be released and then I'll be kicking myself for not waiting.

But congrats on your new MB :)

I'm sure that the current set of MB and MBP will be able to run CS3 when it does come out.

Or at least I hope it does...:( . I can't wait that long to buy mine.

The edges are sharp on your Macbook? Not mine...
