Apple MacBook Pro MC226LL/A 17-Inch Laptop Review
Apple MacBook Pro MC226LL/A 17-Inch Laptop Review from Greg L Stewart. Macbook Pro 17-inch (Mid 2009)…fantastic desktop replacement, Simply put, the best laptop I’ve ever owned. I configured it through Apple with the 128GB SSD and apps install incredibly fast and launch instantly. The screen is a marvel, 1920 X 1200 with LCD backlight. I opted to go with the glossy, so there are some reflections but only when using directly in front of a bright window, otherwise its not a problem (for me anyway).
Bear in mind, this is a BIG laptop…its a tray table…but very sturdy and NO flex in the chassis. The trackpad is also very useable, although I still opted for a mouse (Logitech M555b Bluetooth, highly recommended also).
It doesn’t heat up much and has incredible battery life…if I switch to the 9400M integrated graphics (which is fine for most uses), I can get 6 hours on a charge no problem, with WiFi, Bluetooth, brightness at about 60% and the SSD as the primary HD. With a different config YMMV, but I’d bet 5-6 hours is the norm for this machine.
All-in-all, a great laptop. I’ll have this 2-3 years no problems.
