MacBook (MB) - it's selling like hotcakes now.. but together with that we've heard many problem with it, (mostly heat problem!) so why not you guys in LYN who already use it/bought it/try it/or even knew bout it post what problem do u guys facing with this new MB? and how to solve it? this might help ppl who want to buy MB..

One more thing, can anyone explain why windows notebook that were using same centrino duo 1.83ghz @ centrino duo 2.0ghz didn't face with any heat issues?

instead of starting a new thread, perhaps you can post on the existing thread...

http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=276594

believe me, there's been too many threads concerning MacBooks, and I hate running around the board reading specifics about MBs....

But hey that thread is still stuck at when the MB will arrive, different topics here dude

I'd like to kill those with the MBs and steal them as my own later..

after I've done that, then you'll see me sharing whatever woes I might have.

doubt there're many of the forumers here with a MB.. or even SEEN an MB yet... already got thread for problems...

will let u know later about the heat issue... will do some test...

1st test.

latch
no squeking there. prefectly normal.

keyboard
nice and comfy, quite awakard to use it at first.

continue.... later at home...

I tried out the MacBook at the store the other day and I gotta say the keyboard's definitely not as good as it looks (yeah i actually think it looks pretty good). I miss the good ol' keyboard on the titanium PowerBook.

i think it's all about getting used to.. for input devices especially

No, if a keyboard sucks, it sucks. The keyboard on my MBP is mushy no matter how long i've been using it. Having said that, i have no problems getting things done, just that you'd expect the tactile feedback to be a little better when you pay over 10 grand for it. But i guess the backlights make up for that.

good for u to have enough money to buy MBP, i really loves the titanium case and the feel of the keyboard when typing if u want to u can sell to me cincai-cincai lorr aaronchin

by the way, anyone does have any idea why windows notebook that were using same centrino duo 1.83ghz @ centrino duo 2.0ghz didn't face with any heat issues?

What makes you think I want to sell it? By the way, just so you know, it's aluminium.

sigh... i haven't even tried the macbook .... or seen.. only reading... very lame

when is it coming in!!!

hahaha dsiew... high 5 i am same hahahaa

it's aluminium eh thanks 4 the info, i thought it's titanium

may be will be in m'sia around 8th or 9th Jun.. got info from friend of my friend which working at macstudio... not sure true or not

what on earth are you talking about? 'That topic is still stuck at when the MB will arrive'?
How then can this topic even be discussed? When the MB hasn't even arrived yet?

yes!! only 8th or 9th? this is outrageous!!!

no seriously.. can't it come this weekend or something?
can somebody from apple confirm...

I think that it will come much later, give another one week after the 8 of June 06.

I dont know why Apple Malaysia cant receive the Macbook with the same time as the our Singapore counter part.

really outrageous...

btw, miniacs.. u haven't given us a full-blwon review yet!!

I was talking to one of the staff members of the Apple store in BSC, and he said that the local SIRIM approval process is long for electronic items, especially pcs..so the delay is normally there..

but oh well.
