    Hey guys, I'm currently in the market for a good and relatively inexpensive laptop. I like the fact that the Macbook can run both OS-X and Windows but I have been hearing problems about the wireless internet connectivity. Does anyone out there know what these problems are and if there is a fix for them? Thanks for all your help!

    Actually, the MacBook has better Wi-Fi connectivity than say the MacBook Pro due to its aluminum chassis. It also has better reception than any previous models.

    I've only heard good thing about it. I have the MacBook Pro and I have absolutely no problems concerning wireless connections :)

    same here, I've heard nothing bad about the macbooks at all, except that some get a bit warm, but apparently with wi-fi reception is even better than the iBooks, and I had an iBook G4 and that got very good reception, fer better than my current dell laptop
