I’m delighted to finally have my Apple MacBook after 3 weeks. I won’t waste time reviewing it as you all know that it is just plain fantastic. Just a quick summary:
- It’s beautiful
- Mac OS X is beautiful
- It becomes warm (and sometimes very warm after some hours of intensive use)
- It works beautifully with my Livebox
As expected, here are the Photo Booth manipulated photos captured with the built-in iSight camera of the MacBook.
Here, Christina and I are (re)discovering the pleasure of having our photo being taken by “someone” else…
Here, Kyan and Anya are in awe of CoreImage technology:
And this is the ultimate proof that Steve Jobs has won ; Christina is reading the MacBook’s manual:
Fantastic, I tell you!
(PS: This is the first post I’m submitting from my MacBook and I’m using Safari…)
*woot*
congrats on finally getting u’r new toy :) it really looks beautiful, the all white-effect is very appealing :D.
the picture quality from the built-in cam looks very neat btw, is it the hd-VGA quality or even better?
cheers, happy MacBook’in
Thanks LaSh,
The picture quality of the built-in iSight is indeed very good even though the resolution is limited to 640 x 480 (i.e. VGA).
BTW, the keyboard is rather distinctive but I like it.
The only big problem that I have is the low volume of the built-in speakers compared to my sister’s Dell for example. I won’t be able to host a party with that… ;-(
Try this: View a Quicktime movie in the player (from http://www.apple.com/trailers) and minimise it to the dock. See the beauty of CoreImage as the video plays in there.
I’ll do that as soon as I get home cause I’ve already packed my laptop in its brand new bag (and it’s already 16:04…) ;-)
congrats :)
whats next on your wishlist??
Thanks tarriq,
Now I need to buy an external hard disk so that I can do video editing properly. And I am also buying a USB midi interface to connect my Kawai K4 synthesizer to the MacBook.
Keep it Mr Avinash. Explore everything you want
I’ll do that! Count on me ;-)
