School used to be about learning information. Now it’s about learning what inspires you to learn more. That’s where Mac comes in.
Mac lets you create, access, and share your own digital media while mastering the core subjects your school requires. With a Mac, you can learn the way you live — creating, communicating, and connecting — at school, at home, and on the go.
Ten Reasons Why You — and Your Parents — Will Love a Mac
-
Make movies, music, and websites — right out of the box.
Every Mac comes with Apple’s award-winning iLife suite of digital authoring tools preinstalled. With iLife, students have everything they need to mix music, make movies, build websites1, share photos, and create podcasts — right out of the box. - Industry-leading support.
Every Mac comes with 90 days of toll-free phone support and a one-year limited warranty. And Apple is the only company that can provide hardware, software, and operating system support in one phone call. - Runs Office and Windows.
Mac has all the tools you need to succeed. Every new Mac runs Microsoft Office2 with ease. Mac OS X Leopard also includes Boot Camp3, dual-boot software that lets you run Windows XP and Windows Vista at speeds equal to or better than PCs. - Connectivity built in.
Mac fits into existing networks at home and at school. And unlike some PCs, every new Mac comes equipped with built-in wireless so you can connect to available networks as soon as you power up. -
Tools for communicating and collaborating.
Video chatting is the easy way for you to keep in touch with friends and family. Use iChat4 and the built-in iSight camera to talk face-to-face with up to three people at once.
-
Tight security, virtually virus free.
No computer is 100% immune from viruses. But with its rock-solid UNIX foundation and built-in firewall, Mac OS X provides a level of security PCs only dream about. - Built to last.
MacBooks are slim, lightweight, and portable with durable polycarbonate shells to withstand the rigors of daily student use. There are no protruding or moving parts to break or jam and a magnetically connected power cord disconnects easily when tugged. And an internal motion sensor protects the hard drive if the computer is dropped. - Loaded with everything you need.
Macs include built-in functionality such as software for creativity and productivity, multiple languages, and accessibility features that cost extra on most PCs. -
Runs iWork for beautifully compelling presentations and documents.
Apple’s iWork5 runs on all Macs and includes Keynote for cinema-quality presentations, Pages for streamlined word processing, and Numbers for impressive spreadsheets. - Intel inside.
Faster processing speeds, longer battery life and compatibility — all of this is made possible by Apple’s partnership with Intel. Every Mac ships with Intel inside, delivering high performance and exceptional value.
