i think i'll keep my junk laptop with vista for some purposes... im stuck with either macbook pro or macbook air 128gb ....both at the same price... hmm.gif

macbook pro will meet your requirement since it come with faster processor,larger hardisk space and ram upgradeable up to 8gb.
the advantage for macbook air over macbook pro will be 1kg lesser,faster storage access speed

There are reports from Macrumors forum members residing in San Francisco and New York stating that they've got  what-is-supposed-to-be-custom-to-order 4GB RAM MBAs purchased in physical Apple Stores.

Times like these, I miss having Apple Stores nearby.

For those of you that bought Mac Office 2008 with an upgrade option to 2011, the download is now available. It's about 870mb in size, for the Home & Student version. Very sad that it does not come with Outlook.

Anybody here know how much the business version would cost here?

you may order CTO mac product from reseller,but it will take time to arrive and full payment is required.apple reseller cant offer you education price as stated on applestore malaysia even you can proove you are a student,but still some discount can be given

Guys.. I thinking to get the 64gb 11inch MBA.
Possible to add another 2gb ram by myself? Also can I purchase a 32gb USB thumbdrive or sd card just to install widows and run it on MBA?
*
nope,you can only upgrade ram thru apple store.
are you talking about install windows on MBA by using USB drive?if in this case,yes,you can,4gb will be enough

maybe you can call bank and ask them to transfer the amount to installment plan

May i know is there any Sub $$ to pay when buying MBP?
Some people say need 100+ for the iwork
900+ for protection plan and blah blah @@ it's scary
*
first of all,you dont have to purchase all these at once,you can purchase it seperately
if you would like to purchase all these at once thru retail shop,the price will be cheaper than listed price

QUOTE(Christopher7 @ Nov 29 2010, 03:30 PM)
nice one
But thing like iWork, MobileME can only be get with that price?
Online purchase can only pay by Credit Card?
Can be pay by Paypal or debit card?
*
if you would like to purchase all these at once thru retail shop,the price will be cheaper than listed price
fixed price @ online store accept credit card,debit card and bank transfer

I'm planning on visiting Machines tomorrow to get my 13" Macbook Air.
If I want to add more ram and upgrade the processor, how long will it take till I receive the set?
*
usually takes around 2-3 weeks

QUOTE(dinraxxx @ Nov 30 2010, 02:58 AM)
Well they can.They'll get it from their stock lol.But if I were you, I prefer the Apple Factory to do it.hehe.
*
dont worry,is not reseller like Machines who simply change your part and upgrade to your prefered specification.all this is done by Apple itself
