Definitely!! Oh, anyone facing the problem that I face when clicking the tracking number link to DHL but there stating no shipment found? So weird that apple sends an email but DHL side no updates... I have also checked in packgetrackr also couldnt find the tracking number..

OMG! Called up Apple Hotline just now. Apparently, to upgrade to core i7 processor will take a little bit longer. Intel making lots of money I guess, processor not enough for demand. Customized MBP,5-7 days stuck in China. Another 5-7 days for delivery. Duh....

but mine's already shipped and being tracked by DHL...Have you ordered yours?

Hello, I have a few questions. I see that the prices of Macbooks in Malaysia are much cheaper than in the States or in Canada since Malaysians don't have to pay for an extra 13% (GST & PST) and after conversion, I still find it very tempting. So I'm thinking of getting my hands on one of those but before buying it, I need to know a few stuff. I'm in the middle of end of year exams so I can't google the answers and I really hope you guys could answer my few not so tough questions.

First, does it come with an international warranty? (If anything happens can I get it fixed in North America?) Yes it does

What about the ACPP Plan? If I get it does it prolong the warranty internationally or just, locally? Internationally

And, do I need to pay anything extra than the prices shown on Apply MY website? Nope

What must I have to be eligible to get them off the web at student price? legitly, you must be a student in a local malaysian uni..they randomly check by asking for a scanned copy of a student ID or a letter from your uni..but like I said, its random

Thanks in advance!
