Yea, machines will be closed tomorrow after 6pm.
Guess they're having some new MBP stock.
They should be ready to be on sale on Saturday onwards.
Too bad, they do not offer any education pricing. No choice but to order through apple store online.

yeahooo... at last i see one changes for the last 4 days...
my MBP is now "Prepared for Shipment".. finally.. LOL

Congrats!    same as my status too...what payment method are you using? credit card? if yes...have they charge the amount to your card?

      same here same here.. last nite still "not yet shipped" now same status as yours d..

Yes you may as what I've did but it's not a 0% installment except if you purchase at machine.  As for my online purchase, my first action is to notify my bank that I would like to convert my online purchase to installment, they've asked for the total amount of your purchase and calculate for u the monthly payment amount. Once Apple charge to your credit card, bank will convert it to installment plan.

If you installed a 64 bit windows OS, why would you want to download 32 bits softwares? I dont think 32 bit softwares is compatible with 64 bits. Just find 64 bits compatible softwares =D. Im planning to use bootcamp to install my 64 bit windows 7 =D...

Mine using wife Hong Leong Bank Visa ...8%

haha the one in oakland right?

so stupid.. i dunno which is true and which is wrong..

i called DHL in this morning.. they said item reach and custom clearance done..

but i called again not long ago.. the guy told me item not yet reach KLIA.. i ask not subang meh?

he replied: "no, the clearance is just paper works only.. your actual item is not yet here"

wtf lor. i m so confused.. gonna call again tmr afternoon..!

how long have you guys waited for them to process the order until it is shipped?

I'm curious as the last time i bought mine, it was shipped immediately, while this time it was so freakingly slow. It's not a CTO unit.

what kind of issue? i can control the light brighter and dimmer.. other than this.. still yet to explore..

how do dim the keyboard light?

try check the keyboard setting, the illumination could be turned on / off.

Added on April 22, 2010, 1:14 amor try pressing f5 / f6 to dim the keyboard lite! just found out.

erm... i dunno my keyboard got react to the dimmer light or not.. not much diff if not mistaken...
but i did a stupid experiment just now.. i try to press f6 and make the kb light to the max.. then turn off the room light.. the kb light indicator become about 60%.. u can check that by pressing f5 or f6 after u switch off ur room light
haha.. we just got it today.. still got a lot to learn   

when u cover the sensor.. u try to press f5/f6.. u will see some drop in the indicator..
but for me.. even in bright light.. my KB will still lit..
read here to learn about http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html
press the apple logo on top left.. the about this mac.. mine already 10.6.3
shop for sleeve... palm protector.. notebook bag.. DVI adapter(if u hv external screen).. a good external harddisk to do backup with time machine.. all these easily cost another 1k
