Ironically the games on Steam that are available for Mac are pretty affordable.

These days any game that supports Windows and Mac will usually be sold as a single disc or disc set.

Anywhere that does pre-orders for the Windows version; both versions are sold on the same disc. So check out your local PC game shop.

I bought the Macbook i5 without upgrading its screen to the matte type because it just uglifies its look.
But now I'm having this common problem everyone is facing that is, difficulties in using it under direct light.

So now I'm just curious where can I find an anti glare screen protector for this beast? I'm using the i5 15inch FYI.

I've already did some research I would like to opt for a screen protector from ClearCal because of its good reputation and its effectiveness.
The problem is, I couldn't find it even when I was in the states.

Do you guys know where in Malaysia can I get it? Or any recommendations from other brands?

Some ppl actually claimed the i7 is slightly cooler than i5.

Like mine, I have no complains about heat so far, cool to touch even when plugged onto power with GT330M enabled. The only time I stressed my MBP is when doing video encoding, it reaches 100 degrees before the fan speed up to bring it down to 80... sweat.gif

You stressed your MBP kao kao izzit...? brows.gif

metal material, hot is expected
used my fren T400 (the same processor with mine P8600), it's hot as well, even plastic material (good heat conductor)

Anyone using Undercover for extra protection (and faith)? using Prey as it is free.. two times rumah kena masuk penculik laptop.. if Undercover can do much much better than Prey, will spend money for it.
