get the model number and google it. it should say whether it's "802.11a/b/g" or "802.11a/b/g/n". yes N can go further

I realized that the longer i turn Google Chrome on my macbook, the more memory it hogs. Does anyone ever come across this situation?

Exactly, firefox also the same thing...
So, switch to Safari..use firefox and Chrome only when necessary..

I think its probably due to the fact that it actually stores your most recent website under the history tab etc. Could that be it?

Nah, I don't think so..After I cleared all my history, it still the same..

Just received my Momentus XT back form Seagate...
Installed a fresh copy of OS... Dam, it's way faster then before and running really smooth... Even my first boot is really fast...
If anyone is getting this HDD, please do a fresh install to experience the true performance...

hello...
new member here...

hope can share and get some advice from here...

just successful configure apache + mysql5.5 + perl5.10 + imagemagick + chartdirector...

very tricky.. but happy with the result... and the performance of this apple tooo.....

You could have just installed XAMPP or MAMP, you know? LOL
Btw, whats the size? 13, 15 or 17"?

yea true... XAMPP & MAMP very powerful wan...

but there's limitation on bundle apps like XAMPP & MAMP.. for me as developer... there is some 3rd party software that required certain version of apps...

for eg. imagemagick if installed from macports will be configured with perl5.8.9 ... but chartdirector for mac not compatible with other than perl shipped with mac(in this case perl5.10).. but little bit tweak this and there will do the job... and help from pakcik google tooo...

hehehe... but need a lot of advice from sifu here... so many thing that i dont know about mac... hope can give me some advice...

thanxs in advanced

i thought momentus XT has some problem with macbook? because of the NAND flash thingy? no?

btw, im joining the macbook pro club, proud owner of 13' 2010 mbp.

any accesories that i should get?

oh! so now u using safari and all those lags gone? previously i was using Chrome.. then usually i open about 20-30 tabs.. the whole mac super lag.. then i swap to firefox, i think is a bit better.. but still very lag.. especially some page got flash stuff embedded.. how about safari?

mind to share more experience? thanks

for me... MOSHI palm guard is a must.. i dont stick any screen protector or case protector

thanks, already ordered.

what else other accessories which is a must and cool, good looking and can protect very well my macbook pro casing?

and one more thing, i want to upgrade my hdd instead of using the stock hdd from the macbook itself, any recommendation? please no SSD yet as not enough budget

I opened about 20 tabs include some include flash..My cpu still 70+% free...

Thinking of getting a laptop elevator for my MacBook Pro. Anyone using one? Recommendation?

Elevator? You mean riser? I'm using those chepo notebook cooler, got it free when my sister bought a notebook during pcfair years ago. Can't recommend any, but you could buy any of those coolers .. or just riser (Logitech has few nice one..)

Coolers dont rise as high as I would like them to.

Serious? Don't know anything about that..
My new one is working perfectly so far...
Will update you guys if any problem occurs....
