QUOTE(Koki @ Mar 30 2011, 12:39 AM) Agreed. Internal graphics will rape your RAM instead of having a dedicated one. I still say MacBook Air is better for 13 inch Though MBP 15 inch is pwnage MBA still using integrated GPU... |

Maybe yes, maybe no, depends on the specific model...
Number of cell can be the same, but capacity/voltage can be different..

QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Mar 31 2011, 09:57 PM) Size is the same as 14" right? Or the 14 refers specifically to the screen only? I know the laptop is heavy, much heavier than regular 15" 14'' is just referring to screen. |

QUOTE(kelvinclyap88 @ Apr 3 2011, 11:54 PM) that seagate hdd using usb 2.0 only, my sister didn't upgrade it to usb 3.0 but i thought it will be quite fast, at least till 50mb/s or so... but when i borrow it to use, quite disappointed with the speed No, theoretically USB 2.0 can achieve max 60MB/s, but most of the time just 20MB/s++ |
