Product Description
Apple MacBook Pro MD311B/A 43 cm (17inch ) LED Notebook - Intel Core i7 2.40 GHz - 1920 x 1200 WUXGA Display - 4 GB RAM - 750 GB HDD - DVD-Writer - AMD Radeon HD 6770M, Intel HD 3000 Graphics Card - Bluetooth - Thunderbolt - Webcam - Mac OS X Lion - 7 Hou. The inside story. And the outside story too.
With its durable unibody enclosure, Multi-Touch trackpad and energy-efficient design, MacBook Pro looks beautiful. And works beautifully.
Strength. Lightness. Beauty. Seamlessly integrated.MacBook Pro is machined from a single piece of aluminium, an engineering breakthrough that replaced many parts with just one. It's called the unibody. And the first time you pick up a MacBook Pro, you'll notice the difference it makes. The entire enclosure is thinner and lighter than other notebooks. It looks polished and refined. And it feels strong and durable - perfect for life inside (and outside) your briefcase or backpack.
Waste of time (Read on!!!)
This laptop is wasting my time. No, not because it is slow or anything, it is just so beautiful that I can't go for more than five minuets without looking at the extremely beautiful and well made unibody enclosure. Iv'e had it for about a week and I haven't had a SINGLE problem or error (well apart from the time Team fortress 2 and portal crashed, but that was an issue with the applications). The sound on this laptop is the best I have ever heard on any laptop, and the superdrive is great for playing CD's and movies. I have managed so far to get about 3 hours of full brightness, 10 hours in the dark, and about an hour of solid gaming or other intensive use. It is very light and only 0.98 inches or about 2 cm thick. Now, when I was thinking about buying this item, I wondered wether it could run games, and the simple answer is yes, but let's get in to more detail. So far, I have tested 3 games, Portal, Team Fortress 2 and Minecraft. Let's start with Portal. It is a very fun puzzle game...

Review 1 : A perfect portable work horse
Well what can i say...
Firstly i'd like to say what a beautifully crafted and well engineered machine this is.
I've been using macs personally since 2003 and they just let you get on with your work (and play) without the babysitting of windows annoyances.
My primary use is for art within games development.
It works well with Maya, Adobe creative suite CS and many other industry standard software applications.
I would recommend this 17" macbook pro for creatives.
The only con is the hard drive. Although a roomy 750gb it's only 5400rpm and a little slow.
I highly recommend you upgrading to an SSD which is very easy to install.
(I installed a crucial M4 256gb and it has made the machine a speed monster).
