QUOTE(prasys @ Aug 24 2006, 09:52 PM) Until then, how's the Photoshop CS2 performance? I heard its still sucky......Well , you would need to wait for the next version of Photoshop to support Universal then its going to blow How fluidly does Windows XP run on a MB / MBP? To tell you the truth , it just blows you away. In fact tests have shown that Windows runs better on a mac then on a Windows [wow...] Are Apple laptops picky with matching memory? Could I pair a single 1GB with a single 512MB stick? Nope , you can't. Its really picky...maybe the next generation MBP would fix it ! Sounds like I'm getting a Mac next yr for my college education. But izzit worth getting a MacBook Pro?? |

QUOTE(Mike3300 @ Aug 31 2006, 09:30 PM) Get Macbook also worth it... good specs + and works like any other normal notebooks runs XP, but you can run 2 OS  So Macbook is more than enough for a college student?? Pro is quite pricey for us though. |

QUOTE(prasys @ Sep 23 2006, 02:41 PM) how often does a mac os hangs compared to windows?? Rare or None , even if it hangs , you could run other programs . Well , thats the beauty , unlike in windows explorer.exe hangs and you're pretty much screwed. Yesterday , my finder hung and I could still launch iTunes , sync and play games ,s urf the net....Even if the main core fails , of courselah i cannot explore my HDD and stuff like that. But hey , at least i could save my work and do a reboot Windows XP itself is buggy , if you install it to any PeeCee or Macs...it would be still be the same...But IMO , it looks like XP runs better on a Mac then on a PC itself ! Can explain?? BTW, wat are the downs of getting the cheapest MB - RM4399 other than unable to play graphic hungry games smoothly?? No $$, not much choice to choose. Anyway, I'm still relying to Windows for my gaming needs. Dun nid guess also knw wat i meant.  |

If we install RAM bought from 3rd parties rather than Apple, can u reclaim warranty if something bad happens, but u remove the RAM module and went to claim warranty??
Which 3rd party brand of RAMs are considered stable or 100% supported by yr MB/MBP??

QUOTE "Off the shelf" both are configured with 2.0 GHz Intel "Core 2 Duo" processors (T7200) -- each with two independent processor "cores" on a single silicon chip on a 667 MHz frontside bus and Intel GMA 950 "integrated graphics" with 64 MB of system memory "borrowed" on the MacBook and 128 MB on the VAIO. Got this quote from this page - http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macb...-sony-vaio.htmlI would like to know, with more RAM in yr MB, can u increase the amount of memory "borrowed" to the intergrated graphic?? If yes, what's the max value?? |

QUOTE(yetieater @ Mar 7 2007, 06:34 PM) Of course there's Leopard which is slated for release sometime during the Spring. If you can hold off on the purchase of a MacBook, it's probably best to do so. Leopard should usher in hardware upgrades. Difficult to say, of course, seeing that there has been little in the way of innovation for notebooks since Apple began shipping the MB with Merom. Will there be any major price changes if there's newer upgrade?? |
