QUOTE(FishnChipx @ Jun 19 2012, 10:24 AM) why the shop already have but onlinestore still saying we need to wait for another 4 weeks ! wtf Because whatever initial run that Apple has made goes to the stores first. That is why big guys like Machines has stock already for the newer Macs. Last night, went there and played around with the retina display Mac.  Beautiful, nice screen. Price not really practical for most person though. |

QUOTE(Mac Man @ LYF @ Jun 19 2012, 10:25 AM) Usually for display set, supplier will provide reseller set that is a bit cheaper, around 10 to 20% off, those are strictly for display only. Their serial number is different too for display unit. Standard for most display set agreement, and it is part of the agreement you have to sign if you really want to become Apple reseller. Something like xx.... I seen them before, I did ask if I can buy those, my supplier told me if I buy, you cannot register the machine or claim warranty. Anyone working in reseller shop can clarified this? |

Guys I have a question ask about the "Cap Lock" issue posted here: http://blog.tysonwilliams.com/2010/01/20/c...on-macbook-pro/
Is it true? I was planning to contact Apple to replace the Cap locks key. I always type fast, my wpm is around 100 - 120 and I usually hit it rather than press it. Anyone has solution to this to disable the security function? Edit: Nevermind, issue fixed. This post has been edited by Icehart: Jun 19 2012, 12:00 PM |
