My Macbook had just turned into the master blaster machine I had intended it to be. My photos were loaded, video clips, and music were finally all loaded. Then the random shutdowns happened. Took it in to Genius Bar. They replaced logic board, heatsink. It lasted a few days. Then kernel panics began. Took it in again. They said it was the RAM. They replaced it. It lasted 8 hours and kernel panic still occurred. It's at the Apple Bar for the 3rd time. They were thinking maybe it's the hard drive. Based on what I've read on this forum I don't think it's the hard drive. It's the original core duo. We'll see what the resolution is with this repair. I like the design of the machine, it's pretty quick, the screen is a bit small as I now sit and type this on my old Titanium 500 mhz. Whatever you purchase, I would recommend apple care and pro care. It seems to be saving my tail this time.
Bought my 2G Core Duo Macbook, about the 2nd week they came out over here in the UK. Only two issues: the RSS which started after a firmware update, and ceased after another one. And I should have gone for 1Gb RAM straight away, as it beachballed a fair bit on only 512Mb.
Apart from that it has been absolutely briliant, one of the best purchases i have ever made.

IMO you should change the options to "had software problems" "had hardware problems"
So far my battery crapped out on me, but that could happen to any lap top. I have also had the usual "funny" things like sleep/wake issues which IMO could be with any computer. But I can honestly say I have had no actual OS problems so far.

I've gotten the black macbook and so far so good. I love the brighter screen by far. Good on my eyes! 
I ordered my mbp 15" about 30 minutes after it was announced last year. I love this machine so much it's unnatural. Buy one, and you will never, ever look back.
