i am booting from an external HD now.....how long u been waiting for the parts?

@Ajul: i sent it directly the HQ in North Point, i am so disappointed that they do not have a external HD in stock in the HQ.....keep telling me parts still stuck in custom

its a lie n they will keep on delay

It took them a week to wait for my HD replacement from Singapore + raya haji holidays for additional few days. So if you can't wait, buy yourself a Hitachi 7200rpm and ask them to put them in first. This will not void any warranty, took them just 15 minutes to put my new HD and when they got my replacement, they called me to pick it up.

But, if you can live with booting from external drive via USB while waiting for the replacement, I guess that should be okay. The only thing I hate about owning Apple products is, whatever fault diagnosed, it will take at least 5 working days to get the fault resolved .. grrr...

guess what, i called up the HQ and give them a shout, the pass me to the superior and he loan me a HDD and installed it for me, did all the update and now me back on.....finally my macbook pro i7 back to life.....

u should ask them before send how long they take n when they will send ur item for replacement..but now i think they just only send mybe after CNY holiday..take another week..normally just take 3-5working days for replacement item..

Send my MBA 13' to VR on 21/01 for screen replacement, check the status last few days they told me the part stuck at
subang and check again on yesterday and the staff told me part received but the staff left before 5pm so cant fix it and they
are holiday till friday.

So at the end i can only collect it next monday.

err.. that means i have to buy a wireless AP and plug my LAN cable in it.. then use WiFi also right? means no Bluetooth remote control solution right?

what happened to your screen?

no no i mean system preferences > sharing > tick Internet Sharing n share connected from Ethernet to Airport

then connect ur iphone to whatever ur Computer Name is

dunno how to use bluetooth for this

hahha i really like this one. smart! but hopefully no one steals the macbook air.

hi all,
one question here...for Macbook Air...128GB SSD hard drive, will it be enough to install dual boot? means including win7?

or really need 250GB SSD? that to increase so little in hard disk space, the price increase RM1k ... :S

I thinks 128GB should be more than enough

To me not enough, i need to have at least 80GB on my windows partition got gaming

hi new macbook pro user here ^^

and get an external for storing purposes

I read an article saying that a complete update of Windows 7 took roughly 18GB of disk space. In Mac OSX, you can choose to uninstall those language pack and printer drivers to save space as well.

Oh and 128GB isn't actually the usable space. The correct should be about 11x GB.

I just ordered refurbished MBA from here ... i think will arrive next week.. really can't wait for it

from UK apple store??

obviously he is in ireland
