eh playing games can heat up my 13inch unibody mbp to 90c! thats 10 more c to boiling point!
is it normal? yawn.gif

That's absolutely normal man..
100c is the boiling point of water, not the melting point of silicone, aluminum, or plastics..
Your unibody mbp does not contain a single drop of H2O..

hehe, I know about that 26th January thingy....

If still not out after 26th January, maybe going for iMac 27" la... lazy to wait.. my laptop cant do beast work anymore coz just sold my i7 pc set >_<
*
hmm.. I don't get it.. since portability is not your issue as you are thinking of getting the iMac beast, why still considering laptop MBP although it might have an update as rumored?

Guys do u feel sometime alu macbook biggest flaw is that when its hot like 60-70 degrees it gets hot at the palm rest and its abit unbearable?
*
Yes, and that's the reason why I bought the Moshi palmguard which serves two purposes to me: 1st, protecting the palm rest area from my sweaty hand and 2nd, serve as a "not so effective but better than nothing" heat insulator at the palm rest area. thumbup.gif

I am using Aperture 3 for some simple photo editing, so far ok. No slow or lagging.

Yup, RAM is important. Max is out if you can afford smile.gif

So I'm wondering what is the max RAM of my late 2008 15" MBP can take?

Guys, this is what some of you guys are waiting for:
http://9to5mac.com/new-macbook-pros-5464563

If it's true, it's not going to benefit me as my 15" MBP was just bought last year March (just 1 yr old), but I would be really happy to share the news with you guys..

Hopefully if it's true, anyone who is going to buy it can share your joy with us here too..

Guys, may I ask what is the best software for Mac OS to do a system clearance so that the system is not too laggy after some time of usage? Thanks.

is ur system lagging now? if not, then dun worry hehhe

well when uninstalling an app, use something like CleanApp, so that all files related to the app will be removed as well

other than that, i dun use anything else, n my system is running fine. juz keep ur files organized that's all
*
After doing some cleaning with onyx, my system is running pretty much smooth right now.. ya.. I agree with you that keeping files organized should be OK.. but with more than 1 yr usage sometimes I just can't make myself sit down and make things organized.. LOL
