Macbook Pro 13 seems a ripoff to me. You can similiar spec (same proc, same ram, same gpu) for Macbook 13 with bigger HDD (250 over 160) for RM1000 lesser. All you get in the Macbook Pro is Aluminium unibody.

I think you should wait for the MBP update.

Should opt for CrossOver. Its an optimized version of WINE, no need for loading Windows in a Virtual Box.

According to Engadget, the White Macbook is extremely delicate and prone to scratches and dents. Not only that, the bottom rubber collects dirt easily.

Can anyone confirm this?

I found someone selling a non-unibody Macbook for quite a good price. What are your opinion guys?

I see all the new Macbook White's bottom very dirty in the showcase. Is it a dirt magnet?

Apple Online Store is terrible. I entered 2 different cards, debit and credit and both got rejected.

Initial impression: I have to get used to different style of OS. I'm so used to referring to the Windows 7 taskbar that it is hard to kick the habit. I'm liking the multitouch gestures, easy application install and the speed and coverage of WiFi 802.11n.
