Since the MBP is still in the hot topic now, I would like to ask if any of you get the ACPP along with the MBP .. there is a thread on ACPP but nobody answer my question. There are ppl who're selling ACPP for a discount in trade forum and I'm worry with the news about generated and fake ACPP .. so, should I get it from Apple or should I gamble and get it from these discounted ACPP .. will we get a box version of ACPP from these guys?
*
I plan to get before the 1 year warranty ends. Probably during the last month
Would like to ask, I ordered 1 software together with my MBP
The software said its ready for shipment and my MBP still not sure
Will they make 2 trips to deliver or just 1 shot? smile.gif
I still can't believe I will be getting my first apple rclxms.gif The feeling is just drool.gif

Most probably b4 next week's wednesday.
Mine got shipped today too, still stuck in Singapore.
The earliest we can get is by Monday. Otherwise, it'll be Tuesday.
Use the tracking number in the email that u received and u'll be able to track ur shipment.
*
They say tracking number. In the email it is a html link. When I click it, it shows some error
Is there another site? I check via the order number from the first day you ordered to see if it is shipped or not. laugh.gif
My software was shipped yesterday. No news yet though. Got an invoice from singapore as well smile.gif

Since the site was down just now. I managed to track my shipment and I saw.. clearance processing complete
Means they will send to my house tomorrow morning. Must wake up early tomorrow tongue.gif

From china, it will arrive here straight right. I think the longest time wasted during the whole shipment is the clearance at subang airport doh.gif

My 13" capacity is much lower. tongue.gif I have already done 2 cycles laugh.gif I would like to ask, is it alright if I plug my MBP 24/7 to the charger everytime I use. When I am done, I just switch the MBP off and off the power switch. Then when I want to use it again, I will switch the power switch back on. smile.gif

So in simple terms. I should charge to 100% or 90+% then use it without the charger till the battery drops low and recharge it again. I must not plug the charger 24/7 when I am using it as it will slowly reduce battery life. And every month I should let my mac battery drop dead and do a full recharge after that? smile.gif

Its call calibration for the once a month thing where you totally use your mac till it autosleep and charge to full power again.. If im not mistaken try read more on the link posted by wiraone.. Very useful info there..

As the link that wiraone post, apple came out with a new technology for the current refreshed MBP line and it is still possible to plug it in 24/7.. Read up more cause I dont have time to really read in detail.. At work =(
*
I have already read. I will do that monthly thing. Actually it will happen almost every week as I will start bringing my mac to work tongue.gif
Normally I will charge 6 hours or less and I will remove the plug, play a little bit like 20% battery drop and plug in again. That is fine right laugh.gif

Should be fine if according to the apple website as they say plugging and unplugging a few times counted as only 1 charge...

Thanks. That what I have been doing is right rclxms.gif Now I hardly use my desktop after getting my mac
It is lighter and enough to do my work. laugh.gif I tried tethering in the mall toilet with my mac and was amazed tongue.gif

guys normally where u buy the MBP online from?
& why need to buy from online? @ KL shop e.g. like pavillion got shop rite?
or just for convenience only?
*
Actually those who buy online uses the education discount or they want to upgrade their mac book to a better specs smile.gif
Shops like pavilion you can customize but you will need to go to the shop to pick up
Online buying, they will ship to your doorstep rclxms.gif Do you can wear your boxers and sign the paper and get your macbook laugh.gif
