Anyone already bought it from the Apple online store in Malaysia ? How long is the shipment ?
From what I heard the online store not working on weekend? Added on June 16, 2012, 9:03 pm QUOTE(Eidilfitrix @ Jun 16 2012, 07:40 PM) Macbook Pro 13" with Retina Display is coming out August - October time frame. Will wait for that rather than buying a huge 15" which I don't really utilize the extra powerful graphics and humongous screen size, can use thunderbolt display for that Look at all the oversea forum, All other sizes will not be coming with RTDThis post has been edited by DiRecToRofSaTaN: Jun 16 2012, 09:03 PM |

Apple does not recommend leaving your portable plugged in all the time. An ideal use would be a commuter who uses her notebook on the train, then plugs it in at the office to charge. This keeps the battery juices flowing. If on the other hand, you use a desktop computer at work, and save a notebook for infrequent travel, Apple recommends charging and discharging its battery at least once per month. Need a reminder? Add an event to your desktop’s iCal. When your battery no longer holds sufficient charge to meet your needs, you may choose to replace it. If your notebook came with a built-in battery, you should have the battery replaced only by an Apple Authorized Service Provider. |
