QUOTE(kunamiya @ Feb 7 2010, 09:41 AM) i know there is an update soon for macbook pro . ,but I still want to wait them to update for iwork and iLife before i buy the macbook pro . i doubt there is a new revision, cause all the retail boxes of the ilife/iworks 09, has no 09 indicator anymore indicating no new release for this year. ilife used to come out 2 years once, last year was an exception. |

QUOTE(kunamiya @ Feb 7 2010, 02:02 PM) last years update was minor .. I think this year will have a major update .. and I believe the macbook pro will update on this march .. not really minor, faces and places,direct uploads without a need for plugins in iphoto,that was significant, learn to play on garage band, learn to play store,that was all new and major. |

QUOTE(ff8ong @ Feb 10 2010, 02:30 PM) I don't see apple going to update the USB 3.0..it could be a bag of hurt for them. on the contrary apple was the one who pioneered the usage of the mouse and Firewire which eventually became a standard. Oh and how many items that you know in the market that uses USB 3.0? or any pecee manufacturers that use this standard now? |

QUOTE(wiraone @ Feb 17 2010, 08:15 PM) Sapura is at Sect 14, PJ .. VR Tech is at Jalan Yap Kwan Seng near Australian Embassy .. you could get their exact address from Apple website. Just bring your unit to their service centre, explain what wrong.. they'll give a quick check .. if yours is still under warranty, shouldn't be a problem at all. Anyway, VRTech just replaced my friend's MBP logicboard FOC eventhough he does not have ACPP and has been out of the warranty.. VRTech is so called Apple Gold Service Centre. this is standard practice in any apple service center that receives the batch of macbook pro with faulty nvidia cards, it doenst apply to other macbook pros. |

QUOTE(jayelleenelial @ Feb 28 2010, 10:23 AM) I'm not sure if it is a hardware problem or not. But I read something online about a ribbon cable getting burnt/bend coz of the expanding battery...etc. Don't know if that is my problem or not? I don't really know what trigger's the problem but I suspect it is heat. When I am in my cold room and on my bed, the problem is less frequent. But in the dining area, the problem is bigger. The trackpad becomes unresponsive and it shakes and goes abit crazy around the screen and opens things up by itself, sort of possessed. Putting my entire palm on the trackpad for 5 seconds cures the problem, but the problem comes back. Does any one know why??? and also, if I bring it to KLCC Machines tomorrow (sunday), will they be open and can they fix it on the spot??
i dont think there are technicians working on weekends, office hours only monday to friday, you can always send your machine in, nothing can be done on the spot, parts that are faulty need to be ordered, standard practice anywhere. |

QUOTE(viper-xs @ Mar 31 2010, 09:53 AM) News is that Apple is one of the most secretive in the company in the world (or maybe the most) so alot of rumors will fly around and best is to just wait. Congrats on the wisest purchase of computer in your life  aiya same also mah with other companies like SONY,HP,NINTENDO. No point releasing news about upcoming products months before launch that will cannibalize sales of current generation. |

QUOTE(terencetoo @ Apr 14 2010, 10:23 PM) i was totally sad for my own good after the new released of refresh MBP. 1st Alu was price at: RM7199 Base Model 2nd Alu was price at: RM4799 Base Model 3rd Alu which is the newest model price at: RM3899 From the trend, the price is getting much cheaper which makes the MBP no more premium anymore...Im thinking what Apple Marketing is doing.. Well, from the spec with the affordable is still worth of grab. Reply above is just my opinion no offense to anyone that wish to buy. I worth it with that price tag. ah but no points at the strong ringgit |
