I picked up a 160gb black macbook today and I have just about ran the battery down for the first time. My question is, do these batteries have a memory? It wont shorten the life of the battery to keep it plugged in all night will it?

also how do you guys like these?

I use iMacs at school and I absolutely LOVE THEM. I just wanna know how nice the mac books are.

I am definetley buying a 2.0GHZ one for college this summer so i was just wondering how they are. Are they identical to the iMacs but in a notebook form?

that sounds good.

Yea its definetly true when they say

"once you go mac, you never go back"

its takes a while to get used to them, but once you do, you ask yourself how you have made it all these years without a mac...lol

i love my mac for everything, but since i'm going to school for graphic design, it's really nice. it is true about once you go mac, you never go back. (except this one friend i have, she's odd though) i don't ever see myself buying an hp. who needs a right click...

I have been looking at one as well. Also, an IPhone may be in the future to go along with it.

im pretty sure that macbooks do have memorys on their batteries. I use them at school and a lot of our kids have batter issues from keeping them plugged in all the time. The iBooks are even worse about it. Other than that they are pretty sweet laptops.;)

you can right click if you hold the control button (ctrl) while clicking and holding. after a second let off the control button and you will have the little menu pop up that has the new folder option and others.

i know this. i meant not having a right click by the track-pad. most people that have never used a mac have no clue what to do because they dont have a right click.

and i've never had an issue with my battery. this is my second macbook and i've always plugged them in whenever for any amount of time, nor have i heard of anyone else with a similar problem.
However, i have heard of some MacBook Pros that had battery issues in general. not a memory thing, just going bad and having to get them replaced.
