Haha.. No way, love my Macbook. I've been throwing out things from my bag to lighten it.

One thing about fitting accesories into my bag is the 3 prong plug head. When I need to bring it along, it's a waste of space due to the prongs, if only there were more support for the 2 flat pin plug..

macbook come with 13" inch screen rite??
then i think u nvr carried a laptop with 15" inch screen, those are even heavier

a 13incher doesnt mean it is lighter than a 15incher.

take vaio, see how light it is. and i own a macbook. so i know how heavy it is.

yea, vaios are extremely light with much better specs, of course you are paying much more...there are lappies with similar size which are slightly lighter...

Spec to spec, the Macbook's weight on paper is similar to some 15 inch notebooks. Haha.. Of course on the 15 inch its just the starting weight, how much can you add on with upgrades anyway?

it is heavier than the 12" powerbook i had, probably due to its 1.3" screen size difference...but i personally do not like the sharp palm rest below the keypad. and the keyboard, i don't like it, not for me, thats why i have to consider this machine out! decided after playing with it for a long time...shall wait for mbp core 2 duo...only if i can get it at discounted rate in the US...budget is around RM 6.5K.

Out topic for awhile: Which VAIO models sized like a black DVD cover, small and slim like a book?

not sure, try checking out www.sonystyle.com - US Sony site...

In the end, you buy what best fits your needs. If you want a Mac then get a Mac. If you're in love with the form factor of the Vaios: then pay the premium. Your shoulders will thank you as you lug the lighter laptop around airports.

I've found (after 3 years of trying VERY hard to love the WinXP) that I prefer OSX.

I'd very much like to buy a lightweight 13in PowerBook (I prefer that name to MacBook). When it finally does show up that is.

MacdaNife, that's why you wanna sell it huh... your VAIO

all your posts suggest that you are a very practical and rational person. not many people have that, i am sure you are a very successful person. that's the best way of thinking. been following your posts for a while now. get what's best for you, not because you want to be cool, or trendy or to show off. I used Mac OS for sometime, I really do love it, but it too has it's own short-comings. Personally, I feel that Windows is good enough for me as I can do all the stuff I want there. I wanted to get the MacBook very badly as I thought I could have the best of both worlds. I've been to my local Apple Centre numerous times to try out the black MacBook. I am not too happy with the sharp edge of the palm rest and the keyboard is not for me. I need to get a new laptop soon, but I can wait till next year. My budget is RM 6.5K. Either I get a souped up Dell XPS M1210 or a Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro with education discount in US or Australia.

Actually the Vaio that I'm unsuccessfully trying to sell off (looks like I'll have to GIVE it away) is the S28. I've since "upgraded" to the SZ18. The S and SZ Vaios suit my use for a laptop very well. So much so that I've passed the 15" Alu PowerBook to my wife.

Wow, thanks man....

I'd wait for the new enclosure of the MacBookPro to surface before I buy. I'm guessing it will be in January. Hopefully earlier though. The present Aluminum case design was launched in MacWorld Paris in September 2003. I remember this well as I was at the time travelling in the US between Las Vegas and New Jersey. While in New Jersey I visited the AppleStore in Newark and saw the Aluminum PowerBook on sale. I had not heard/read of it as it was freshly launched a day earlier in Paris. Point is, it's been THREE YEARS. In computer life-span that's like an eternity. The replacement has got to come out very soon.

sell to me la, 2k

hi guys, i am planning to get a MacBook myself, but one thing holding me from buying is the discolouration issue. anyone facing this problem? if yes, did apple change the top case for you ? thanks

i just formatted my macbook and reinstalled OS X.....

now my ibooth wont work because it says that my isight is being used by another application....

but no application is running.......

any help?

heya... thr's been no discoloration issue since it was identified.... even if u do get a discolored machine, i've been told apple will replace it..

Ermm, wanna ask smtg on gaming with yr MB, not MBP.......
I'm wondering wat is d most graphic hungry game dat yr MB with BootCamp can support??
I meant playing it on WinXP on yr MB(the cheapest model available). I wanna consider gaming funtionality as part of getting a MB in d future.

Check your iSight settings and see what's running in background perhaps?
