I recently purchased a 2.0 Ghz Apple MacBook Pro. I stuck with the stock configuration of 512 MB RAM, 80 GB hard drive, 128 MB ATI Radeon X1600. Immediately after buying, I went to Fry's and picked up a 1 GB stick of 667 Mhz RAM to bring the total to 1.5 GB. I have returned three and am on my fourth. This review encompasses experiences from all of the notebooks. The pros and cons are true of all four I have had.

This is where the ordeal begins. I purchased my first MacBook Pro at the Apple Store in Las Vegas while on vacation (we have no Apple Store here in Fresno California). I wanted to purchase in store to make it easy to return. Good thing I did!

The first night while checking to make sure everything ran ok, a line of pixels all the way across the middle of the screen turned gray, and would not switch back. That MacBook Pro was promptly returned the next day. I did not really have time to test the new one before I left Las Vegas got home. After playing with this next MacBook Pro for a weekend at home I discovered that it randomly shutdown for no real reason. Hot, cold, on battery, plugged-in -- did not matter. I took that machine back the next weekend to an Apple store in Sacramento, CA. When we arrived I realized my wife had not brought the receipt! It made no difference. Apple willingly switched it out even though it did not exhibit the problem while I was there. I had the third one for nearly 2 weeks before returning it to the San Jose store (we were in the area). There was no specific problem with this one it just seemed to act up a lot. This time we could not find the first 2 receipts, but did have the third. Again, with no fuss they exchanged the notebooks. So, I'm on my fourth MacBook Pro, and have had this one for nearly two weeks problem free! For those that are interested the first three were all week 17 and this one is week 21.
