I pair my 13" MB with a Dell 22 inch monitor..
It also depends on the type of monitor u pair with..
My dell is a IPS Panel so the colour and quality is great..
Just my 2 cents..

I know u can tick always open when u right click the file and select the program u wanna use..
But how to do it like windows where like when u set avi files to be open by VLC means all avi files also open by vlc..

Guys...i have a problem when i play games using bootcamp..
Only recently this problem turn up..Is that halfway playing my screen turns black..
From what i've googled i think its my GPU overheating..and compared to last time i notice that the temp of my mac while playing game has dramatically increase..
I only play warcraft 3 and it was never this hot..Its so hot until putting ur hand on it becomes unbearable..
is there something wrong with my mac? The heat sink maybe?

I'm running 10.6.2 and windows 7
Macbook Alu 2.4GHz..

how hot is hot actually?
becoz IMO 80++ celcius still consider normal temperature, provided u doing heavy task job..

Lets see i just surf the net and mail and my fan speed is 6000+ at all times..
I play war3 in bootcamp and its so hot it black screen...

But thanks to dvlzplayground the problem is fixed..
