so after a view weeks i can give you a review how things are going with my 13inch mbp
____pros
its a very nice machine with surprisingly great speakers. for more see the prospect and apple website.i bought a long third party "mac safe" cable (LMP) for charging and i love it.
____cons
you see every finger tab on the screen and it is very hard do clean the display :( also its not easy to open the lid without touching the screen somewhere.lot of strange freeze or kernel panics until the first update. did not feel like apple was ready to release it in this stage. an first software update fixed it, now it is running fine. just once i also had a problem with audio after a youtube video starts to play in a 1 sec soundnoiseloop. the strange thing - also a browser quit did not fix the sound loop - it needed a complete reboot. apple gave out a suplemental update 2 a view days ago, since then no problems. also i do not have these sound problems with click noice that other useres repordet (T2 Chip is suspected).
reminders app is loading 10 seconds at startup (ok its a long list of reminders with around 1000 entries). but my 9 year old machine does it in just 1 sec. so apple messed something up with preloading/cahing long reminders list.
photoshop is running smooth, my illustrator version needs too much ram/energy.
so far so good!
