Yet to see any swelling battery case on unibody models peronally. It happened mostly on older design Alu MacBook Pro and black/white MacBook that uses removable battery design.

I disagree and I think such statement are inappropriate! I found even more other platform users that are not so hardware savvy (since the number of other platform is greater). But I agree many LYN user like to get spoon-fed. It has nothing to do with Mac user or not. They are just lazy, even to search and read.

Although Sandy Bridge is better in terms of thermal and power consumption, we still have to put the whole system in mind. Things like GPU, HDD, DC-in, LCD all can generate heat and/or suck power. My wish-list is dumping the optical drive and make it even lighter, slimmer and longer battery life. And maybe flash storage as default?

It's normal. Meaning your Mac is actually very fresh from the factory. Apple mark down the capacity a bit so that there are buffer for the Mac to ship, hit the store and get sold. All that process take time. The battery life theoritically start degrading the moment it being manufactured. The extra buffer will ensure the buyer get 100% capacity or close.

You will need 512MB of VRAM if you plan to drive dual screen (internal LCD + 27-30" external). 256MB is possible if you turn off the internal. Hotter is expected as you asking the Mac to do more work. Imagine you suddenly put 3 more big man in your car. You definitely felt it even your car is powerful especially going uphill (or other word, heavy works).

This is from personal experience with multiple MBPs with 30" LCD, 2560 x 1600 px.

Try optimise from TV.

Turn off the mirroring or turn off the internal display.

You need a small magnet to activate the detector. It should be somewhere near the lower left side of keyboard.

Did you remove the layer that cover the protector on both side?

If you buy immediately after the announcement. Most likely you will get pre-loaded 10.6 but Apple will put the upgrade installer in box and shipped with your Mac. If you buy from reseller, you then have to get it from Apple via update programme.

Save the money, buy AppleCare please. RAM and SSD price will go down over time. You can add that later.

I still disagree (seems like a trend) to max out new Mac during purchases. Enjoy your Mac and when you felt the needs only upgrade, that will give you more millage. Unless you are those person who change your Mac every few months.

@and1_player have you done all the software update? There's a Bootcamp update 3.2 for 2011 MBP.

I think chingwooi got confused. If the monitor is external, it has nothing to do with LED or not. For you, it's just another selling point. Like respond time and viewing angle. It's a feature. To whatever device connected to it, it won't matter. What's matter is you need to know how your Mac going to connect to it. Over DVI? VGA? USB? or other output? Each of it might have limitation like xaw5126 pointed out.

And the resolutions. If your Mac support lower resolutions than the screen you going to buy, it might not support or you won't get the optimum display.

C-zone.

There are no such resolution, it will come in 1680 x 1050px.
Authorize Resellers can help you to place the order, you have to wait for it. If you mean LYN sellers, you can slowly wait until the day Apple sell Anit-glare + HD LCD as standard spec.

That's the number to call.
Did you set to wake for network activity?

There are few report on this, some get it fix by combo Updater, trashing pref and update USB IO Kext.

Internal keyboard, trackpad, Bluetooth is on USB too. If this persist, you should send your unit to service center for diagnose. But call AppleCare first. They might have remedy for it.

Memory error. If you have upgraded the RAM, the RAM might be the culprit.

Then send in for warranty lo. Anyway, try to loop the test for 3-5 times. Sometimes need repeated test to confirm.

If you dare to open the unit, you can try to reseat the RAM. Probably swap the position (upper RAM go down, vise versa). Warranty should be 5-7 working days if part ordering involve.

What to do next is entirely up to u.
