Thoughts on my 13 inch MacBook Pro

I have had my 13 inch MacBook Pro about a month now and here are some of my thoughts on it

Overall it’s great and I love it. The performance is so much better than the PowerBook and about the same as my hackintosh on the cpu front but graphics is so much faster on the MacBook Pro. (I was using a hacked version of the GMA x3100 driver that would not enable core image or quartz extreme)

Sound Issues:

The volume of the speakers does not go low enough. This issue my hackintosh had in Windows but not Mac. There is too big of a jump between the notches using the volume buttons on the keyboard. Also, in some games enabling hardware 3D sound causes it to die, often to come back temporarily when quitting the game. This would sometimes require a reboot to fix. Simply disabling hardware 3D in the sound options would fix the issue.
