Apple MacBook Pro Pre-owned Laptop: The inside story. And the outside story too.With its durable unibody enclosure, Multi-Touch trackpad and energy-efficient design, MacBook Pro looks beautiful. And works beautifully.Strength. Lightness. Beauty. Seamlessly integrated.MacBook Pro is machined from a single piece of aluminium, an engineering breakthrough that replaced many parts with just one. It's called the unibody. And the first time you pick up a MacBook Pro, you'll notice the difference it makes. The entire enclosure is thinner and lighter than other notebooks. It looks polished and refined. And it feels strong and durable - perfect for life inside (and outside) your briefcase or backpack.

So my 4-5 year old Toshiba was starting to die and I needed a replacement. I went in and purchased a Gateway PC with an AMD quad core processor. Spec-wise it should have performed adequately, but I was still glitchy even as a new computer. So even though I had enjoyed my old Toshiba, I realized that Windows was really glitchy and I had issues with it too. I decided after much consternation and arguing with the wife to spend the extra $$$. Totally happy. While I have used the iPhone for a little over a year I am not an Apple fanboy. But my experience as a user has showed me that I would probably have a similar experience on a Mac. Everything is so intuitive. This computer kicks butt. Only issue is price, but well worth it.
What's great about it: Quick and Intuitive
What's not so great: Price
I would recommend this to a friend!

ok watch. Wish it showed hazard locations on course. I returned it and am waiting for the Garmin S6 to come out, which shows hazards and hole layout.

Not a fair review
December 7, 2014
Didn't you read up on the product before buying it? Not fair to rate lower, especially since you are probably aware the next model up includes that information at the higher price point.

1 out of 5HORRIBLE PRODUCT AND CUSTOMER SERVICE
By GRASON
So I bought a Kenwood dnx570hd last year, my first kenwood product ever. As I driving back to MA from FL the gps just dies. The unit was still under warranty so I sent it back to Kenwood repair in VA on 4/7/2015. Turns out that this is a common problem with the unit and the part is on back order, they have no idea when it will be delivered. In the meantime I'm scheduled to drive to AL from MA on the 30th of this month. Not only will I have no music or bluetooth but now I have to buy a gps unit. Kenwood will not replace the radio with the same unit or a comparable one. I was told by a manager that all I can do is sit tight and wait! Oh yeah, I was told twice that a manager would get back to me about the problem and no one ever did, I had to call again and sit and wait for customer service to find one for me. I'm not happy with your customer service department or your product and I will NEVER buy another Kenwood product again!

1 out of 5Best Buy sent me damaged head unit.
By Derwood
Best Buy advertised this item as open box in excellent condition with all parts included. Only item that came in the box was the head unit. Purchased everything else seperatly. Paid to have this installed and the GPS stopped working 2 days after installation. Removed and purchased a pioneer head unit and so far its working perfect.

By BigEasy

I puchased this item as an open box item. When trying to connect to the boost, it wouldn't connect. I contacted sonos and they determined that the device was broken. I have returned the item to the store and purchased a new device. Hopefully I will have better luck with the new device.

1 out of 5A expensive, not a durable watch
By Nelsoni
I have the Adidas miCoach Smartrun for 13 months right now.
Pros:

- Good coach advices.

- Good coach advices.
Cons:
- Not durable. In a few months you will notice corrosion as shows the picture.
- Poor battery life (althought improved with a firmware upgrade)
- GPS not good, takes forever to locate a signal, even in tracks that I am used to run
- The heart rate monitor started to fail after 11months.
- Charging issues- I can no longer charge my watch and/or it s broken now.
- Adidas still couldnt tell me where can I go to have my watch repaired.

Final aspects:
- Too expensive watch, because I could only use this for a year. I can not recommend this. If you are thinking about buying a watch to run try one of a company with tradition on this.

Corrosion?
June 15, 2015
That doesn't look like corrosion in the picture. It looks more like dings. Just saying. Otherwise good review if truthful.

Did you actually buy this watch or are you going off of looks? If you truly bought it, what reasons would someone stick w/Garmin?
