Best Laptops for College Students

Whether a buyer chooses to opt for a Mac or a PC laptop could very well merely depend on what product they are more familiar with.

You may find consumers extremely critical of one or the other based solely on their own experiences and it does not necessarily follow that the biggest critics have actually used both products, just that they are fiercely loyal to what their own preference is (logic does not come into it).

However advances in technology make the gap between Mac and PC draw closer together on a regular basis and it is possible to use similar programs and file formats for both camps.

Cost, obviously plays a factor for most people and initially a pc comes way out on top, but, because PC’s do not come with many items of software as standard it brings the overall cost of either laptop much closer over the laptop’s expected lifetime. Can you afford to pay the higher cost of a Mac, and receive a laptop that is ready to  dive right in with whatever you have in mind or would you prefer to pay less upfront, but, add to and upgrade as and when your need or your purse strings   allow?

Apple Mac’s are less susceptible to virus attack than laptop PC’s because of their  OS X operating system, but anti-virus, and anti-spyware software is readily available and by following  simple safety precautions it is possible to avoid   major problems whilst using the Windows system on a laptop PC.

If you like gaming, you will find most computer games have been written for PC’s, and that would, obviously, make you more inclined to opt for this form of laptop, but, if your line of work is video editing, graphic designing or web developing then a Mac laptop handles graphics much better and offers software suites that outperform their PC competitors.

Many factors may determine which laptop a person opts for, whether that is previous experience, work related, recommendation, cost or a combination of many factors. This is no right or wrong answer when it comes to the laptop of your dreams.

Overview
It’s big news whenever Apple announces new products and now Apple’s bestselling consumer notebook receives the long rumored major redesign that is no doubt, another stunner. Just when you thought Apple couldn’t make the previous generation MacBook any better, they come around and offer this aluminum and glass beauty that is even thinner, lighter, and more powerful than before.  Now that Apple has brought its renewed MacBooks ($1299 starting) and MacBook Pros ($1999 starting) even closer together by offering the same design, engineering, and -for the first time on the MacBook – aluminum body to both notebook lines, the once straightforward consumer and pro-line product differentiation is slowly fading away.  Is this the best MacBook to date?  Is it safe to call the MacBook, the MacBook Pro “mini”?  Read on.

Design
The new MacBook and MacBook Pro make some significant strides in the design department.  First, the MacBook for the first time, joins the MacBook Pro in offering an all-aluminum body, ditching the white polycarbonate plastic that once defined the consumer line.  In fact, both machines look pretty much identical to each other – offering a black glass bezel screen and black “chiclet-style” keyboards to reflect the new Apple design direction first introduced with the current iMac and iPhone.  It’s a stunner for sure.  The exterior borrows cues from the MacBook Air using tapered edges that trick you into thinking it’s even thinner than it already is.  The magnetic latch opens and closes the display with buttery smoothness and without mechanical parts.  Aa satisfyingly solid “thunk” can be heard when closed.   Available in the more expensive $1599 model are LED backlit keys – a first for the MacBook.  

Aside from the switch to a fully aluminum casing that replaces the now-defunct white plastic and/or black matte finish of the previous generation, Apple is touting its new manufacturing process as a technological and engineering breakthrough.  Using a full slab of aluminum to construct the MacBook and MacBook Pro, not only does this revolutionary process create a body and chassis that is much stiffer with no flexing, these new notebooks use less mechanical screws, parts and pieces to construct together, and thus allow Apple is able to achieve a lighter and thinner product.  The result is a notebook that is so clean and so sleek looking in design, it’s devoid of any evidence of screws to piece it together and without any vents, confirms that this new design doubles as an effective heatsink.

While it’s nice to see the MacBook now offer the same look and materials as the MacBook Pro, Apple may now run the risk of cannibalizing sales of its own pricier MacBook Pros, as they both look almost identical to each other and features-wise, the line between the two is blurring.  Call it the MacBook Pro mini if you will in appearance, Apple has revolutionized a new way to build quality notebooks that are also environmental friendly.

Size and Weight
Impressively, the new MacBook vgp-bps8b is even thinner and lighter than before, achieving a thickness of only .95 ” – the same as the new MacBook Pro.  At 4.5 pounds, the new MacBook is 1.5 pounds lighter than the outgoing model with weight evenly distributed across thanks to its unibody construction (read: less parts).  At 12.78″ x 8.94″, the new machines are pretty much identical in dimensions to the last generation models.

Keyboard
Love it or hate it, Apple has now transitioned its entire Mac lineup to the retro-looking “chiclet-style” keyboard with the new MacBooks.  Rather than color match the keys with the aluminum body, Apple’s new design direction employs the use of black keys to give the notebook an interesting design contrast.  The downside of having black keys is noticeable fingerprint smudging from oily fingers; At least it won’t look and get dirty like the older white MacBooks. Aesthetics aside, the full-size keyboard is a real pleasure to type on with very solid and satisfying clicks.  The keys may be flat and spaced out, but it’s oh-so-comfortable to type on with just the right amount of key travel sony vgp-bps8 and spring action.  The higher end model also offers LED backlit keys for the first time on a MacBook – once again, blurring the lines between the MacBook and MacBook Pro in features.

Display
With a gorgeous 13.3″ LED-backlit LCD screen fully encased beneath a black bezeled glass, the MacBook’s display is stunning to look at even when powered off.  The glossy finish makes colors really pop and adds to its enhanced vibrance, but at the cost of massive glare, making outdoor viewing difficult.  Indoor viewing is not as bad, but reflections abound so be mindful of viewing angles and tilt adjustments.  At first glance, the display seems identical to the previous MacBook screen with the same 1280×800 native resolution, but thanks to the new LED-backlighting, the display is evenly lit across the screen and noticeably brighter than the previous generation models.   Watching movies was a real treat even though you’ll find yourself seeing your own reflection in lighted areas.  But when compared to the MacBook Pro’s larger screen, the MacBook’s picture quality is still inferior and you’ll notice the contrast and blacks drop out when viewed from an angle – The MacBook Pro’s, on the otherhand, looks great at any angle.  This is a big reason why Apple would like for you to pay the extra money to go Pro for the better screen.  A built-in iSight camera is included as well like before on the top of the display.

Buttonless Glass Trackpad
Apple once again leads the competition by offering zero buttons…no really!  Apple has created the first “buttonless” trackpad built entirely of glass that also includes multi-touch technology.  The entire trackpad is essential a button in itself where pushing down creates a solid click to confirm depresses.  While it takes getting used to at first, the trackpad actually turns out to be very intuitive with a smooth glossy feel.  The MacBook Air introduced 3-finger scrolling and the MacBook and MacBook Pro now offer 4-finger multi-touch scrolling for calling upon Expose and Spaces functionality.  While quirky, you’ll soon appreciate the wonders the new glassy trackpad’s buttonless design provides.

Connectivity
Apple has shrewdly and neatly moved all ports to the left side of the notebook (the right side now occupies the lone optical drive), giving it a very clean and organized look so there’s no cluttered wires coming out of either side.  With the MacBook, you get 2 USB 2.0 ports, gigabit ethernet port, audio in/out jacks, MagSafe charge port, and the new mini DisplayPort that replaces the old mini-DVI out in an effort to save precious component space.  Also of convenience is the battery meter on the same side.  In a surprising move, Apple has curiously decided to omit FireWire in the new MacBook that was previous made standard across the entire Mac lineup.  Now, the only way for media heads to take advantage of FireWire connectivity is to shell up the $700 for the MacBook Pro or buy a pricey adapter.  While most people can argue that FireWire’s adoption is dwindling in favor of USB, one of the unique things that made FireWire so special for Macs is the target disk feature, allowing the computer to boot OS X off any FireWire external drive.  Call it cost-cutting or the death of FireWire adoption, we call it a disappointment.

The DisplayPort is another interesting move on Apple’s part to capitalize on a new standard that not only saves component space from the larger DVI and mini-DVI ports, but transitions across all future Macs.  Unfortunately, Apple is skimping on the accessories as you’ll have to shell the hefty $99 for the mini DisplayPort adapter kit to connect an external monitor. Harsh.

For the common consumer, the MacBook provides just enough of what you need and nothing you don’t  in terms of available ports.  Trimming the fat, Apple still doesn’t offer any built-in digital card reader into the unit when compared to the competition and ExpressCard is a feature you’ll only find on the MacBook Pro.  Limited but more than sufficient.

Upgrading
One of the pains of owning an Apple notebook before was the difficulty in upgrading the basic hardware components.  It took a few dozen tiny screws just to get to the harddrive!  Not so with these new notebooks.  Apple clearly did it’s homework when redesigning the MacBook and MacBook Pro, making it very easy to open and upgrade.  Only 2 aluminum plates pieces hold the base together, providing easy access into the harddrive compartment and RAM slots through a simple flip of a latche.  The big news is the removable battery, now tucked neatly beneath one panel next to the hard drive.  Upgrading is limited to your standard harddrive upgrade (SATA or SSD) and adding more RAM (up to 4GB max).

Features:

The MacBook laptop battery is a real engineering marvel. It’s stunning good looks compliment the bevy of new advanced technology and engineering features. The Intel Core2Duo 2.0Ghz model ($1299) we received proved plenty capable of handling most common computing tasks and comes with a 160gb harddrive and 2gb of RAM (with the 1066Mhz FSB). A 2.4Ghz model is available as well for an additional $300 sticker price and includes a 250Gb SATA drive. Both models offer the option of the pricey but fast SSD drive.

Ditching the weak integrated graphics chipset from Intel, the MacBook finally offers a dedicated true graphics engine in the form of the nVidia GeForce 9400M making for better handling of 3D graphics and video. The results, are quite noticeable in speed and video performance throughout the system. Another great feature with this card is that it results in lower heat generation as the CPU no longer has to work so hard in processing these tasks. However, don’t expect the GPU to bowl you over in graphics-heavy applications though (read gaming). But, the 9400M certainly does pack a good amount of 3D punch to your videos, media, and gaming sessions, especially with the likes of the new Adobe Photoshop utilizing thus features.

Wireless-N, Bluetooth, SuperDrive and iSight are all standard features as usual.

Heat and noise wasn’t much of an issue with the new MacBooks thanks to the entire aluminum unibody acting as a giant heatsink.  The notebook runs warm but not quite as hot as older models and a soft hum can be heard only when the fan kicks in intermittently.  No issues here.  In our battery tests, watching a DVD yielded about 2:40 of juice, and in basic tasks such as web browsing and word processing, a respectable 4:30 of life.

Conclusion
Overall, we found the new MacBook a real pleasure to use as with all Mac products we’ve tested.  It’s a gorgeous, sexy piece of machinery and certainly the best MacBook yet.  But we do question Apple’s decision to make the MacBook so closely identical in looks and features to the MacBook Pro… Anyway, at $1299 starting, it’s a tad more expensive than we had hoped it would be, but you do get a lot for your money namely the aluminum casing, glassy multi-touch buttonless trackpad and of course, the revolutionary unibody “brick” construction and for a whole $700 cheaper than the cheapest MacBook Pro model.  Nonetheless it’s a excellent buy for one of the best notebooks around on the market.  Some may not like Apple’s new design direction (myself included) utilizing black keys to contrast the aluminum, but there’s no denying this is one of the best looking laptops available.  

Bottom Line:
With a dedicated GPU and aluminum body, it might be “safe” to call the MacBook the “true” successor to the highly heralded Powerbook 12″.  Well…almost – the lack of FireWire is a serious hit and it’s still a tad too big.  What about calling it a MacBook Pro mini?  Not quite but its darn close. A better display and graphics card, Firewire, ExpressCard slot, and LED keys are all that gets in the way of the $700 difference, features wise.  Yet, the lines between the consumer and pro models are fading away ever so slightly…Suddenly $1299 feels like a great bargain.

Your MacBook is more than just a computer notebook for work or leisure. It is, more importantly, your tool for communication, entertainment, and knowledge search. It is, therefore, advised that you take proper care of your MacBook as it is a vital technological investment for both personal and professional growth.

Safety Tips in Carrying the MacBook

Buy a durable notebook sleeve for your MacBook from Apple stores. Whenever you carry it around by hand or in a bag, make sure to slip it in its sleeve to protect it from dust, dirt, and other minor damages. For maximum protection, put your MacBook inside its sleeve before keeping it in its bag. This should protect it from shocks, hits, and, bumps, especially if you are carrying it along inside a vehicle. When the MacBook is inside its carrying case or bag, make sure to remove all loose little items like coins, pens, or paper clips that might accidentally scratch or damage your MacBook. This should also prevent them from getting inside your computer’s openings or ports such as the optical drive or card reader.

Safety Tips in Storing the MacBook

When not in use, make sure that your MacBook is kept in a cool, dry location. Keep it away from children’s reach to avoid scratches, damage, or even file loss. Preserve the battery life of your MacBook by discharging it 50% before you store your MacBook.

Safety Tips in Cleaning the MacBook

When cleaning your MacBook, make sure it has been properly shut down and its power adapter is not plugged in. Remove the battery, as well. To clean the MacBook’s exterior, use a soft damp cloth that is lint-free. Wipe the computer’s surface in a gentle manner and avoid wetting or getting moisture in any port or opening. Do no use aerosol sprays, abrasives, or solvents when cleaning your MacBook. Do not spray any cleaning liquid on your MacBook screen.

Remember, your MacBook is an extension of yourself. It defines how you represent yourself to people at work and outside. So make sure that your MacBook is clean and sparkly – just like you are!

Great question! There are a number of things that can cause your MacBook and MacBook Pro LCD screen to break. At TechRestore, we have repaired literally tens of thousands of Mac laptop screens and we’re glad to present a few tips for you to help prevent your screen from breaking. The number one reason for broken screens is accidental damage – here’s how to avoid accidentally breaking or damaging your MacBook Pro LCD screen:

First, get a case for your MacBook. By keeping your MacBook Pro in a padded case, you will help eliminate damage that is caused by carrying your MacBook Pro without a case. We receive systems each week where the owner dropped their MacBook after carrying it outside of the case. Get a good case and use it.

Be careful when closing the lid on your MacBook Pro. Apple recommends using both hands when closing the lid of your Mac – one hand on each corner. It sounds silly, but if you grab one corner of the screen and pull down, you can actually break the screen.

Don’t leave anything on your MacBook Pro keyboard – anything. That means pencils, pens, paper clips, etc.. We see broken MacBook Pro systems arrive daily for repair that a customer closed the screen and forgot to remove an item that was resting on the keyboard or top-case, resulting in a cracked MacBook Pro LCD screen.

Liquids….keep your distance! Keep your drink out of reach of your MacBook Pro. If you can knock over a drink that is near your MacBook Pro, you can easily spill the liquid on your LCD screen or your keyboard. Both are events that you want to avoid. Liquid spilled on your MacBook Pro LCD screen can cause it to short out or crack and liquid on your keyboard usually continues moving down to your logic board and other components – this is bad.

OK, so you bought a bag to protect your MacBook Pro screen from getting cracked, right? Nice job! One last tip is to be very careful about what you put in the bag with your MacBook Pro. The bag should have a separate compartment for your laptop that is protected from the rest of the stuff you know will be finding its way into your fancy new bag. Don’t let your cell phone, iPod or whatever push up against your MacBook Pro – the added pressure (especially when you start moving that bag around or tossing it in your car (toss = bad) can cause your MacBook Pro LCD screen to crack or at a minimum cause case damage.

If you still wind up breaking your MacBook Pro LCD screen, with a big, nasty crack or just a black screen that greets you when you turn on your Mac, TechRestore can help! We offer a 24-hour turnaround time on repairs that are performed by Apple Certified Technicians and we back our repairs with a 1-year warranty on parts and labor.

Design

Macbook’s looks are stunning, it’s only 0.76 inch thick at the thickest point, and is amazingly only 0.16 inch at the slimmest end. The display is 13.3 inch widescreen, with 1280 x 800 resolutions, but the sleek display panel is extremely cool with a beautiful curves at all edges, and everything elegantly rolls towards maximum thickness. If one looks at the laptop from the front, it seems like no thicker than cardboard, and it’s only when one moves towards the side when the gradient is revealed, and the full thickness can be seen. The Macbook folds neatly, and despite slim design, everything closes neatly. The weight of only 3 pounds (1.5 kg) makes it handy for carrying round and ideal for those whose notebooks spend a lot of time off the desk. It’s painted in beautiful blend of white and silver, with keyboard in black, and the famous apple logo at the back of the display. The keyboard is full-size with crisp keys. But Macbook Air features key illumination, making it easy to work in low-light settings such as airplanes and conference halls. A built-in ambient light sensor automatically adjusts keyboard and display brightness for optimal visibility. And with the huge multi-touch track pad, it just keeps getting better for the fingers. Overall the looks are extremely elegant, stunning and sexy. It’s a beautiful piece of art with a really eye catching design.

Features

Despite its slim design, the Macbook air doesn’t lack in features and performance. It’s powered by 1.6 or 1.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 4MB on-chip shared L2 cache. The chip was custom-built to fit within the compact dimensions of Macbook Air. And it comes with 2 GB RAM, 80 GB hard disk, and with an option to upgrade to 64 GB 64GB solid-state drive, which has no moving parts for enhanced durability. Intel GMA X3100 graphics processor with 144MB of DDR2 SDRAM shared with main memory gives adequate graphics performance but it’s not gamers’ machines, and the new-generation games suffer, but not everyone’s interested in games. 80GB of storage seems little for many users by today’s standard, but then there’s an optional 64GB solid-state drive and external USB Macbook Air SuperDrive available to enhance the storage capacity. There’s also one USB 2.0 port. SO, overall the performance is at par with the mid-high spec laptops, and is ideal for almost every task, and can cope with almost every application without suffering. The backlight LED display allows for an even thinner build. It provides instant full-screen brightness the moment Macbook Air is opened. The display is mercury- and arsenic-free and hence more power efficient, which translates to longer battery life! Macbook Air also includes a built-in iSight camera. The iSight camera and iChat software make video chatting easy anywhere there is a wireless network. The Macbook Air battery is extremely thin, yet it doesn’t lack in power, and allows wireless web access for five hours!

Conclusion

It is a highly innovative device, with so many features packed into so little space. Its portability and powerful battery makes it good for travelers.

Stylishly and intelligently designed for your on-the-go digital lifestyle, Apple’s MacBook is the perfect confluence of affordability, innovation, and powerful computing. This latest iteration of the MacBook line is pre-loaded with Apple’s Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard operating system, which adds over 300 new features including easy backup of your most important data via Time Machine, a redesigned desktop that helps eliminate clutter, and the newest version of the fast-loading Safari web browser.

Intel Core 2 Duo Processor:-The Intel Core 2 Duo T7500 processor has a 2.2 GHz processor speed, super-fast 800 MHz front-side bus (FSB), and an enormous 4 MB of Smart Cache, an L2 cache that can be shared between the cores as needed. The Intel Core 2 Duo’s 128-bit SSE3 vector engine handles 128-bit computations in a single clock cycle, accelerating data manipulation by simultaneously applying a single instruction to multiple data. And its two execution cores are designed to share resources and conserve power, helping it to achieve higher levels of performance since it uses fewer watts. And with 4MB of shared L2 cache, the MacBook is a multi-tasking monster. With such substantial L2 cache, data and instructions can be kept close to the two processor cores, greatly increasing performance and allowing the entire system to work more efficiently. And, because the processor cores share the L2 cache, either can use the entire amount if the other happens to be idle.

Hard Drive and Memory: – The 120 GB Serial-ATA (SATA) hard drive (5400 RPM) quickens the pace with a higher speed transfer of data–akin to FireWire and USB 2.0. The 1 GB of PC5300 DDR2 RAM (two SO-DIMMs of 512 MB) has an industry-leading 667 MHz speed, and the RAM capacity can be increased to a whopping 4 GB.

Display and Graphics: – Whether you’re working on a Keynote presentation or watching a movie before you catch a flight, every document, video, and photo on your MacBook will look sharp on the glossy 13.3-inch widescreen display. With pixel-perfect 1280-by-800 resolution, it’s great for viewing and working with media. Video is powered by the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100, which provides 144 MB of DDR2 SDRAM shared with main memory.

Wireless Connectivity:-The built-in 802.11n wireless networking provides up to five times the performance and twice the range of 802.11g, but it’s also backward-compatible with 802.11a/b/g routers, enabling you to communicate with the a wide variety of Wi-Fi resources.

Keyboard and Mouse:-The track pad can tell if you’ve got one finger on the pedal, or two. With two, you can easily scroll around your documents or open contextual menus. When you need right-click functionality, simply open keyboard and Mouse in System Preferences and enable the secondary click preference.
