Speed Download is similar to flashget. You can do multiple connections per download, and resume downloads:

Hmm...matte display?

I am wondering, will it affects the quality of the image? Better? Same?

Can I install XP via bootcamp on Macbook Air with any external optical drive?
Or only Apple Superdrive?

any drive should works fine as long as u partition it using bootcamp.huhu...

i was reading through apple support website and various websites regarding issues with the sata150 and 1.7 efi update which causes random pauses/slowness/beachballness with the june09 macbook pro range

anybody applied the efi 1.7 update and lived to tell?

do u guys plug on power all the time when ur using at home?
how abt when ur not using it??will u power off the switch or leave the power on whole nite?
hehe thankss

at home, plug.. outside, fully on battery.. there's no point leaving the power on whole night if the battery is full. i believe it wont charged.

At home I use it plugged in all the time, even at night coz I never shut down my mac, always sleep.

can someone recommend a good adblocker for safari ? apparently safari adblock is causing bug with safari 4.0.3

guys, need help with few questions.
i've decided to get myself a Macbook Pro next month (after Snow Leopard's release) but cannot decide between 13 and 15.

few concerns of mine:
- a lot of ppl told me to get a 13, and a large LCD screen. but i worry that the color will not be as nice (unless i strike lottery and buy the LED cinema). i've not used any DVI b4. my current LCD is running on vga only. =_= also, will projecting onto a larger screen heats up the internal graphic card?

- 15 inch is nice (of coz larger is always better) but it's quite expensive. was planning to go for the 1 with discrete graphic card since i feel it is a better deal than the baseline 15". But then, I realized the AppleCare for 15" is actually RM 1.2k compared to RM 800 of 13". VERY expensive for me.

- do you guys (Macbook Pro users) get the AppleCare? do u think is worth it? or do u think i can postpone it until maybe a year later?

I primarily use the laptop for some development work and digital painting (beginner level). Any advice?

Sorry if I post it at the wrong place, don't know where should I post without starting a new thread. Admin, feel free to move it somewhere if you feel it's not appropriate.

Thanks guys.

-First of all, are you in graphic line of work? Don't get me wrong, all established brand has their good reputation as well. Color is not an issue, accuracy is more of a concern. Even so, it shouldn't affect you if you are not printing graphics out. I believe you can get a DVI/Mini DVI to VGA converter, no problem there. Where do you get the idea that an external large screen will heat up GC? If it does heat up, that's when you are displaying too many moving things across two screens. So, nothing major here. Still, you will have to check the limits of VGA resolutions (if you want something up to 24in/27in)

-Not a concern as well, it's about your perception of value.

-AppleCare is worth every cent you pay if you want to have a peace of mind. But check the limited warranty, it doesn't cover a lot of the expensive stuff, ie screens. (unless manufacturing defects)

And lastly, now you mention about you are in graphic line of work. Don't worry too much of color accuracy in this level. You have to learn how to make the print as close to screen as possible.

thanks shoguniphicus. i'm actually just a hobbyist when it comes to design n graphic stuff. so i think getting 13" is quite sufficient for now. i won't be doing HD video editing or any video editing for that matter. maybe simple animation in the future, but not much also la. mostly comics and digital painting for now (Photoshop or Painter). so i don think i need discrete graphic card yet. can save up on the extra 2k for a good LCD.

the 13 inch + applecare + iwork = easily cost 6.5 - 7k already. :T

anyway, thanks again for your tips.
