Tell me why the white MACBOOK has absolutely no USB dock,but if I upgrade to a macbook pro grey color I get one.


Also, should you get IWORKS only $79 or pay the $159 and get the OFFICE student for MAC?


I am used to word and I need it for papers and shit for school, but wonder if I WORKS is just as good or good enough.

i don't know what a 'USB dock' is, but the macbook has two USB ports.

do not buy iwork.
buy the student version of office.

The dude at BESTBUY said it had no USB area to plug anything into the computer. I didn't see one either but I didnt look to hard though. Where is it at on the macbook? front back side?

yeah forget Best Buy. If you're looking at getting a Mac, go to the Apple Store. The people there are fruity hipsters but they will give you all the accurate info you need about the computer and show you how to use everything and explain anything you need them too.
