the latest version wan

goshh i nearly bought mine there as well..but from wat the sales guy told, somehow i got a strong feeling tat they r trying to clear off wif their old stock..so i decided to step back n pay alil more n grab it in machines KLCC...
anyways im so sori to hear tat bro....i would recommend u to replace another unit, as customer is always right...

in US, yes...but in Malaysia, I'm not sure about it

i think MC026 is an old model right? but not that old

er but sitll you ahve the right to claim a defect - free macbook pro that you pay so much for...

I recommend you to go to change for the 3rd time and clearly state the problem you are facing.

i was wondering how bad is it ? u change it twice and still getting a problematic macbook.. or ur really fussy ?

he got dead pixel man >.< it doesnt lie .. and -.- i dont think anyone who spent thousands on lappy can bear with dead pixel >.<

how bad is it ?? and also what is apple policies on dead pixel ? is 1 dead pixel entitled for a replacement ?

btw read this > http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?t...080302&tstart=0

When I 1st got my 1st 13" MBP, I got a stuck pixel, even apps also can't fix it. Ended up calling the shop and Applecare. but I got replacement after 1-2 weeks due to no stock.

My suggestion is why don't go back and try to ask for exchange/fix?

i bought my mighty mouse from ebay US with warranty.. and cheaper price too, since it was bidding. it make me laugh because the mouse was assembled in Malaysia. what other apple product is assembled here anyway?

Apple (White) Keyboard & Mighty Mouse are all assembled in Malaysia. I not sure about the new Apple Aluminum Keyboard assembled in where.. anyone know?

anybody is using any keyboard protector...im using capdase clear version it comes with hold on the protector...but i heard if ur using protector it might blow the air flow of the MBP..
please advise..

How much you bought the MC026 in Machines KLCC?


Yup...totally agree with you. If I pay RM2k+ for a laptop, I can't say anything. But this is a RM7k+ laptop man!!!!

Has anyone heard "what you pay is what you get"?

I paid RM8k+ (with AppleCare) and do you expect me to accept this kind of problem?

Plus Apple is well known for it's graphic. What's the use of excellent graphic if you have defect pixels?


What Apple Policies? Before buying it, the sales person told me that they will swap a new one for me IF THERE ARE ANY DEFECT HARDWARE...

So I guess I am entitle to swap right?

1 dead pixel doesnt entitled you to replacement..

Why not? I already did it on my first swap. After first swap, there is still a defect pixel

ur lucky for the first time, usually they wont unless there are a lot of dead pixels like 3-4.

mine is 13" 2.26..

why worry about them not swapping it for you? whatever it is, the problem didnt derive from you, the unit is faulty, simply bring back to them and tell them bout the problem, your unit is covered under apple warranty anyway..
