Apple 13-inch MacBook Pro Mid-2009 Review

@davomrmac Thank you very much for the help!

@Abellikescookies For video editing and photoshop I would definitely recommend a larger screen. Also, sit down for half and hour and write down all the times or places you go and if you would really take a laptop with you. If you answer ‘no’ to most of the scenarios, then get a desktop iMac. Good luck.

I am saving my money to get one of these, but I found out that the iMac 21.5” is almost at the same price of this one, so I don’t know which one should I choose!
I use my computers mainly for video editing and Photoshop.
Could you give me a help please?

@davomrmac im a dj..so i mostly just use serato scratch live itunes and safari.

@PLURKID25 What will you be using it for?

@davomrmac should i get the 13 inch 2.66ghz or the 15 inch 2.53 ghz?

@davomrmac Well, that would put Apple really behind, since other laptops/notebooks have had touchscreen capable models for a long time.

Also, I didn’t really notice the keyboard back-lighting, since it didn’t really get much darker, than when the light was on.

@CJCA915 Maybe they will next time around.

Why not just make the screen a touchscreen?

@randomrazr I’d only get to the 15inch if you are interested in anti-glare option, so if you do photography for sure I’d get the 15inch, but for doing office work, or home work then 13inch versions are fine for you. Yes, photoshop would be faster as well but photoshop would work fast on the 13 inch currect versions just fine. If your doing video and photoshop all the time then you are better off with an imac anyways.

@Meaganissocool If you buy new now, they all have 4GB of RAM as standard.

@randomrazr Possibly, if you do a lot of Photoshop or Video work.

I was thinking about purchasing this , but I’m unsure about how much memory it has. I download games & save alot of music & photos to my computers, & i was wondering if their was enough memory on the macbook pro 13 to with-stand such memory? thanks.

do you yourself think its worth paying 600 dollars more for the 15 over the 13inch?

@ferbie7 The lock (as with all computers) accepts a cable type Kensington Lock. This is available from many different manufacturers. They cost from around £10 upward.

Hey thanks for the review, it was very helpful in my desison for a portable computer for school. But I dont understand how you use the lock beside the superdrive. Could you explain how to use this accessory?
Thanks! Grest video!

@xBAMFx10 Thanks for your comment.

just bought one for myself. i am very pleased with it (as i always have been with macs). the upgrade from my normal macbook was worth the money. this video was very informative and helped with features i had no idea about. thanks!

@pandorakid229 theres mini dvi – vga,hdmi, and yes there is a s-video one but why do you need one?

@cornbreadman26 It is Tour Bus an Apple loop.

hey bro cool video thanks
hey could you be kind enouph to tell me what the name of the first song is?
please and thanks you:]

@pandorakid229 I think theird party ones yes. Check out somewhere like Amazon.

is there adapter for the 2010 macbookpro 13. the adapter to mindisplay port to s-video?

@peazkraft Some do, but I have not experienced this on the later models.

@yaycobiskewl If you use it plugged in all the time, yes, this will shorten battery life. It is suggested that you use it on battery at least once a month, until the battery is fully drained. This will exercise the battery and help prolong its effectiveness to hold charge.
