The MacBook Pro MB990LL / A is perfect for someone who wants a full-featured laptop that is easy to transport. It uses the aluminum unibody design which is beautiful and practical. Precision construction gives the unit a solid feel. Aluminum and glass do not wear out, like the plastic in many other laptops. The matte silver finish with black keys also looks classy. The keyboard lights up automatically when the room darkens the light. This is not an essential feature, but it is useful for selecting the correct function keys after dark.
The LCD screen is really very good. The MacBook Pro display has a 60% greater color gamut and is better than the previous Macbook Pro in terms of black levels, color depth, and accuracy. It’s great to watch movies or view and edit photos.
The most prominent feature of the MacBook Pro MB990LL / A is the touchpad. The multi-touch inputs used to navigate are comfortable and intuitive. It also creates a larger trackpad surface, giving your fingers more room to move, click, and gesture. And because the trackpad supports Multi-Touch gestures, you can use two fingers to scroll, pinch, rotate, slide, three fingers to slide, and four fingers to slide, tap, double-tap, and drag.
