any MB users using notebook coolers ?
was thinking of the zalman nc1000 but not too sure.. cause the coolermaster notepal p1 looks really interesting also and i notice alot of heat from the MB comes from the area around the F2 to F4 keys region where the CPU and graphics chip are located. |

Plenty of people have done it. No worries there. All flavors of Windows Vista should work with Boot Camp, but I do recall some hubbub about Vista Home. |

Hmmm..i'm wondering whether want to upgrade the ram to 2gbz to run the windos vista?
by the way, will there be any lag playing games such as warcraft or starcraft? |

IMHO 1GB RAM for Vista in MacBook is like XP running on 512MB RAM, smooth but not really smooth
For the games, I think warcraft and starcraft at low resolution would be no problem.. |

well, its all up to you.. every bit of information u need on the macbook is already on the net...

i am now, very very unsatisfied with my macbook...
tomorrow going back to macstudio.. see what they can do... best thing, replace with new unit.. the keyboard plate on my right side, squeeks.. most likely because its warped from being overtighten.. the front panel, along the infrared, doesn't match the top part when its closed... there are 2 bumps along the case... that day itself they brought out a second unit, it was worse than mine.. i thought i could live with it.. but obviously i can't Added on September 9, 2007, 5:30 pmhere are some pictures to those that are unclear of what i'm talking about ![]() the arrow, points to a chip... a small bit has been chipped off the cover ![]() this picture, speaks for itself This post has been edited by MoNnY: Sep 9 2007, 05:30 PM |
