Yes, I've installed the FC Studio by a little bit 'hack' (I think 'trick' is more suitable) and can use it properly except in Motion there's probem. Thanks to wei for providing the link. I would suggest you go for at least 1.83Ghz iMac if you are seriously want to use the FCP/FC Studio because the onboard graphic chips will limit some of the funtion (maybe). Dedicated graphic chip will be much more better (of course!)

Gudluck and Cheers smile.gif

u said in "motion" there is a problem...may i know whut kind of problem?

of course dedicated graphic is more efficient but based on the review , wiff 2gb of ram the 2.0Ghz macbook still can cope wiff the macbook pro series and G5

so was wondering, are u on 512 mb ram or 1 gb ram or oredi in 2gb of ram?

lastly anione here using macbook dont have any problem in Motion using the "tricks"?

again thanks in advanced

Hi, new Macbook owner here. So far so good, but does anyone find the DivX movie playback on the Mac OS a little fuzzy compared to Windows XP?

Also looking for a Macbook sleeve. Any idea where to find one? Tried some Gallant IT Apple stores, but they all seem to be closing down. Thanks.

The trick is just only "do not using crossover FC" If you use universal FC it will surely run icon_idea.gif Motion would not run, but maybe others will be different biggrin.gif

I'm on 512 smile.gif

I think I saw a sleeve for 13" laptop at MacStudio in Lowyat. If I'm not wrong, the price is around RM80 - RM90.

Yes, I think so. In order to run the application smoothly must have at least it's minimum requirements. If you can wait, just wait after WWDC next week, who knows there's new spec or even new enclosure for MBP? rclxms.gif

yes of course its universal. you could use it for both the PCs , thats why .mac accounts are meant for. PM me if you want to sign up for Spymac club [30-days Free Club days] , I could offer you that. Its pretty neat and they offer more storage then .mac itself !

OK, is it just me or do the iPods and Macbooks get scratched way too easily. Seems almost as if they get scratched without me even touching them!

Come on Shanks, I wonder how come they scrathced even you didn't touch them blink.gif

But I do agree with you, they'll get scratched even though you take a really good care of them, same to me, my iBook and PowerBook, they all scratched even though I'm carefull.. but the PB is less scratched than the iBook, maybe because of the material biggrin.gif

Maybe someone can suggest a material that won't scratch? tongue.gif

Go and try first la dude, then it will tell you its ok or not.. if dont want to try, for what yu buy the RAM? I think it will be ok, if not ok, only kernel panic will appear only, if that happen, just change back to the old RAM.. I look foward to hear from you.. Gudluck!

guys, am planning on getting a macbook. but i need it to run vista badly. i'm a mac user, i mean i was till my PB got stolen and i know that even with the latest version of Office for MAC, some stuff just don't work well. E.g. when you copy some stuff from the net, you cannot get any formatting together (in Excel), alignment goes out in PowerPoint and so on. Besides, some programs I need to run don't support Windows.

What do you guys think? Shall i get it now during the PC Fair as the deal is really good or shall I wait till someone installs Vista on his/her MB?
