12 months installment with interest free is a very good deal.. especially if u can't afford it that moment..
i understand that the RAM itself costs RM1000 rite?
can i purchase it via third party and install it myself w/o voiding warranty?

what paint, dont get what u mean by that? at the moment, no problemo.
bahir: it is notebook cooler from coolermaster, can get it from lowyat for RM95. I got the black one to fit my black macbook. the size and dimesion fits PERFECTLY. just bought it coz some many forumers said that Macbook heat up easily, so i do hope that this notebook cooler helps.

SmackBook ProMiniac, I can see your house kinda grand and big eh? And is that a PowerBook 15" at the corner?

Will review later tonight. Last nite, I left my Macbook aside for software update. currently looking for macbook cover so that I can take this baby out in the open.  ... since I MIGHT leave my office early today, I was tempted to go either Amcorp Mall or Ikano to look for cover. Any recommendations?

I dont know if it is out of your way miniacs, but i was at the Apple store on the 3rd (dont remember the name) in BSC, and they had a pretty big selection of covers for it. The price for at 14inch (i think) one was about RM100.

Guys, i have a doubt Click MeiBook | MacBook ---------------------------------------------------------------------- G4 1.42GHz | Core Duo 2.0GHz Δ 5.7 | 29.1 5.1X SPECint_rate_base2000 Integer calculation (estimate) i dont understand, why they compare a iBook, which have a 1.42Ghz only with a 2.0 Core Duo? Why they dont compare iBook/PowerBook with/around 2.0Ghz with 2.0 Core Duo??
