"MacBook or whatever these stupid things are.... I hate Macs."
Nice salespitch to get someone who likes Macs to want to buy something from you.
Yeesh.

Whatever.
In all seriousness though, what is your disappointment? Is there something wrong with it or do you just not like it (the aforementioned "I hate Macs" bit)?
My main point is just that this is kind of a weak salespitch; it's one thing to say that it just wasn't right for you, etc. and another thing to include your hatred of Macs; not exactly something that inspires confidence in you as a seller, really. The main thing is that it frankly turns me off as a potential buyer (why do I want to go out of my way to buy a MacBook from someone who hates Macs), but it also calls into question how you might have treated it. Not saying you've done anything bad or anything, but since you hate Macs, it doesn't give me confidence as a potential buyer that you have treated it well - I certainly don't go out of my way to treat things well that I hate.
Again, it's more just that it's a pretty bad salespitch, and if you really want to sell it, especially to Mac users here (I imagine your "I hate Macs" stuff goes over better in places like hardforums where you're also selling it), it is something to think about.
At least for me personally, I was vaguely interested in buying it until you came across that way at the end of your little movie. So that's my point really; you lost a potential sale, and that's something worth thinking about because you're so desperate to rid yourself of that awful awful Mac.

hmm ok .. so my story... why i hate it now ...
I loved my mac. I treated my mac like my baby. I threw away my pcs my dells my custom built computers... everything was great everything was perfect...
One day while at work.. i look down.. i have yellow palm rests... i figure.. hmm this isn't right.. soo i kept going and then on digg i saw some articles on it.. i'm like grrrr and so thats fine.. i dind't know where it was going .. people everywhere having issues but i can live w/ it.. i'm cool ... i love my mac..
Next few days... i'm sitting working doing my good stuff.. and *nothing* turns off.. doesn't do anything id on't move.. i'm like.. omg.. what just happened.. it starts back up.. ohh nothing.. maybe glitch.. *shrugs* ... and it happens more .. and soo i see on digg.. ISSUE.. soo i'm like .. .hmm i guess i will take it in..
I take it in to the MACOUTFITTERS.. our local place.. and they are like.. well it will be a few days to figure out what is wrong.. i'm like.. *stares* i know what is wrong.. fix it.. then ig et a call af ew days later.. sorry part is backordered .. u want us to wait for it or send it in to mac hopping that it will be fixed sooner.. i'm like.. i don't acare i just need my computer back.. send it back to them please...
... 3 weeks later... or soemthing like that.. felt like months.. ig et it back.. by this time.. i have moved back into my pc world w/ a dell 420... my work gave me it ... it isn't the best but it works for what i need. I miss my mac.. but there are things that made me mad.. and i will list the things w/ just the OS...
yes i know bootcamp i can run windows.. i tried 1.0 or somthing and i dind't have half the support...botted to it and i bluescreeend twice.. i'm like.. wow.. cool..
macos x... great loved it.. was clean i used my mac so much i forgot how to right click w/out usint 2 fingers on the pad to click.. it was awkward to go back to a pc for awhile.. HOWEVER.. i felt like i was restricted.. skpye aim msn.. missing features that i used everyday.. i felt like i was missing out.. i bought .mac and started my own website.. loved iphoto.. seriously i loved it all but just felt like i coudln't do everything i was just using it for normal little tasks..
maybe it is because i work in computers and i felt i was losing my edge on them and winxp id onno ... but i now have a 1700 piece of equipment at my house sitting in a box waiting to be sold for 400 or more less..
I have had it for a little over 3 months.. so i leased it for $200 a month just to try it.. i liked it.. but i can't live on it.. i payed premium.. but not for it to randomly shutdown and discolor and have quarky things.. i bought mac cause i thought quality and iw on't have to worry about stuff like htat... i can deal with it w/ pcs... dell.. next day complete care they replace itall.. scratches and color anything.. i don't need a million peopel to complain first..
anyway! thats my story..

OK, fair enough, and thanks for explaining what your problems were (I didn't quite get the bit about missing Skype, AIM and MSN, since there are OS X versions of all of those clients).
Good luck selling the MacBook!
