I've wanted to get an MacBook ever since January (which isn't a long time ago, but if you keep on hearing rumors that it'll come next Tuesday or really really soon, it feels a long time :D). However, I'm scared of getting one since it is rev. A and all.

For those of you have bought and recieved them, here are some questions:

1) Does it run extremely hot?
2) Any sounds (buzz? From one post I think someone said they heard it buzz) coming from it?
3) How's the wireless internet? Same as the iBook (which got 4 bars when PBs got 2, I think)?
4) Does the battery life run as long as the iBooks?'
5) The black MacBooks aren't shiny like the iBooks and the white MacBooks?

------

If you could answer these, I would be extremely grateful. Thank you so much!

1. It gets hot but not to bad.
2. No sounds or buzz.
3. Wireless is great.
4. Never had an iBook but Id say its equal or better.
5. No they are not shiny, sorry. That would probably make it nicer though.
