@bzbody : how to upgrade? you don't have any existing installation, right?
Custom lor...

@terrytay2009 Mac batteries cannot be removed anymore. so that's one thing, the other thing is that when fully charged, a Mac runs off the adapter, not the battery. so don't worry about running it down.
Yes, you should remove the charger and 'exercise' it at least once a month.

@honoeric there's this amazing thing called google...

yeah, i've tethered with Digi. if you get the "Contact Digi for assistance" message, call the hotline to fix it.

the smaller plastic head is not grounded ... its been discussed here before. if you're getting the mild electric discharge, then use the long cable.

let them la. eventually we will have the same system in the USA, where only real students & educators can buy.

@ecvk not exactly. for security, your Windows XP has read-only access to your Macintosh HD. why don't you start up in Mac OS & clean it up there?

kinda suprised at our people's attitude, Black Friday is a western holiday / event. why should we bother about it?
don't we already have more holidays than them ?

@Christopher7 there's a hotline for you to call. Please do so.

yay ! Now every (Malaysian) can buy iPad (officially) !

PM me. I used to teach Garageband

hmm, i've done some 2007 to 2011 imports... everything is there.

@ soonwai yeah, that would be cool. then we could video from anywhere with a Mac OR a PC

@gzavincent you answered your own question.
@ Isaac Chong check what connectors your TV has. usually, LCD TV, you'll need to get miniDisplayPort to VGA.
@beyond the aluminium itself is part of the design

@grazvincent does the CPU drop back to normal after the disk is erased? if not, then you'll need to go looking some more...

@ dvlzplayground without TRIM support, the SSD can't manage its own space. go read the wiki

RAM isn't SSD, RAM needs to be constantly powered to keep the data

@david890701 yes it does get slightly warm. that's why Apple advises notebook users to use their portable on a firm, solid surface, not your lap )

the MBP 13" has 1 fan because there's only the CPU to cool down. in the 15" MBP, there's the CPU AND the nVidia GPU to cool down.

also, the entire body of the MBP is aluminium, making the entire Mac a heatsink. so yes, it will feel slightly warm all the time. if that's a problem, get the MacBook, which uses a plastic body.

@mememe12 nope, only files placed in Macintosh HD > Users > Shared can be accessed by all other users.

@miaka_tama that's a firmware upgrade. usually, you just need to tap the power button (~1 second) and your Mac will power up.
