Not sure why the price is half it should be but I can tell you with the AC adapter the speeds are 866mb and without it is closer to 300mb.

Hi I just received the computer (2gig). I bought MAC compatible 2x2gig memory from newegg.com for about $96 (incl. shipping). Opening the back panel was pretty easy (you do need #00 philips driver). It took literally less than 5 minutes to do it.

This is 1600mhz stock(default setting), you can lower it in the bios to 1333 or 1066mhz. This is plug n play it will set itself to 1600mhz unless your computer automatically downgrades it 1333mhz. Usually that happens for compatibility, but you can up it in the bios. I don't know much about macs concerning hardware compatibility, but I assume it should be ok (it's a computer in the end). Check "toms hardware" site they can be more informative.

Works well in my 2GHz MacBook 1,1 CoreDuo. I ran the memory test in Tech Tool Pro 6 and it passed. I also ran memtest from an older Ubuntu install CD and it passed. I have had one panic crash though. It is a machine given to me by my daughter when she upgraded, and I haven't used it that much.

when i purchased mine, it was pretty decent condition. the battery for it was not proper for the specific body though, it was obvious due to gaps around the compartment and a difficulty to turn the lock. thats not terrible though, it didnt effect performance at all, and i, in fact, use the battery for another macbook i have that had its battery crap out on me. dents and scuffs, minimal really. the hard drive i received on mine was slightly smaller than described as well, i didnt mind. it was advertised 500, and came with 320. for the price i didnt care. the computer itself came with a list of programs and apps that were not installed on my old macbook which i bought from the mac shop itself such as microsoft office, and imovie, etc. i do have to say though, that the computer crapped out on me after about 3 or 4 months. the operating system or hard drive i think crashed. i have not since had it fixed because macs are expensive to fix and also because im lazy. so overall the price is right, however i believe if you want to buy a mac, your money might be better saved to either buy a certified macintosh referb, or a nice new one from them with warrenty and everything. after all, macintosh has some of the best customer service in the world. good luck with your purchases my friend

I just ordered a sister model (AWUS036NHV) on for my Macbook Air with Yosemite 10.10.2. Downloaded drivers from Alpha site...Works fine... but not until I tried 5 different USB Cables (including the one included with the unit), and it finally kicked in with a short super heavy-duty USB cable from my Garmin. Maybe the USBports on my macbook Air don't provide enough power? But it is working now and doing a nice job.Would like to use a long cable to place the unit closer to the window... gonna check into usinga powered usb hub with a longer cable. Anyone have any experience with using a powered hubwith this unit? I just ordered a sister model (AWUS036NHV) on for my Macbook Air with Yosemite 10.10.2.

It is fully compatible with my Mac! Took it out of the box, plugged it it and burnt a dvd. No software, no complaints so far. OS X 10.8.2 2.44 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 8 gb ram

This worked fine with my Apple MacBook Pro MD101LL/A 13.3-Inch Laptop (which is the version that first came out in mid-2012) When I went to the Apple store the other day, there was nothing listed as the "newest version" (and it wasn't printed on the box I received from Amazon.) Perhaps this is a designation Amazon has to note as a reseller.

Don't get me wrong I think macbooks are a great computer and I own an early 2008 model. However, while these new aluminum look really nice and have new features such as trackpad, graphics card, etc....the price has gone up 20% over earlier 2008 macbooks with the same processor speed(checkout macworld's benchmarks). This is revision 1 of these new macbooks....thus you are going to pay top dollar for something that has a few known bugs already(screen, trackpad). Like anything else, you will get more bang for your buck if you wait until early next year when revision 2 comes out at cheaper price points. I love the macbooks but can't recommend this one to ppl based on value for your money. Not to mention apple's new improved snow leopard OS will be coming out mid next year too.

Yes, it's working perfectly. I have a MacBook and I don't have any problems with that!

Looks like same performance (speed) specs; the 'C' version claims Mac and PC compatibility; presumably the 'B' version is PC only

Hey man I just checked what you said and its true...I bought mine less than two months ago and it said newest version...amazon probably differences their bundles this way...the computer came completely new and in perfect condition its the latest model and its extremely thin...the retina display will blow your head off its gorgeous...I have some pictures on instagram if you want to see it... @wakiko007 hope I helped answering your question

I installed the 500 G into my 2008 MacBook Pro on 3/28/12. It's quiet, fast, and has been excellent. Zero problems. I use the MBP every day running the battery (replaced once) down to 6-15% watching a movie in the evening. AC during the day for full recharge. Does the HD run all the time? I really don't know. I can't hear it. I have four 500 G externals that are used for backups (but not often enough :-( ). They are WD devices and I've have no problems with them either. I like the 500 size over any T sizes for reasons of redundancy. I double info onto the 500s, i.e. two 500s for the same back-up, thus if one goes down, I have a dupe. More than you wanted to know.
