applecare dont really know if i wanna buy......coz dunno worth it or not.....and as a first time mac user, i dont really know how reliable is apple hardware.....

Well, for me, the things i wanna get are:

1) MacBook

2) Wireless Mouse (havent decided if to go with a Mighty Mouse or a standard bluetooth mouse..been hearing some complaints about the MM from a Mac buddy of mine..)

3) A notebook sleeve

4) 1Gig of RAM

5) Football Manager for MAC


and before the 1 year warranty is up, AppleCare.

Football Manager for Mac, last time I bought from BSC it cost me less RM100.00 of course this is original lar coz not sure u can buy non ori and play it on Mac.

A notebook sleeve for Macbook, well I am still waiting for that to arrive here.

the Mighty Mouse is wireless???

Mighty Mouse is Wired...
Apple Wireless Mouse is Bluetooth

by the way.. why don't you get mini DVI to DVI + DVI to VGA Port? that more saving right?

yeah horr....

in fact, i have a DVI to VGA port in my drawer...hehehe......

My Pod looks like crap now, ever since my plastic casing broke... Still thinking of what to get, any recommendations? Plastic, rubber, chrome, aluminium, or anything else?

And how much will it set me back? I will still need the protection though...

Been waiting for so long for the bluetooth mighty mouse...

What I got

iBook G4

Few months later

A sleeve for the lappie , iSkin for the keyboard , screen protector for the lappie and a protection for the trackpad as well...

where did you get the trackpad protection? my sis is looking for one for her ibook G4 but can't seem to find it in the apple stores...
mind posting a pic of it?

I wanna get a Dock and Apple Remote....and of co some protector case for my nano

I wanna get some type of protector for the keyboard, trackpad and wrist pad, and maybe even the outside of the MB..any good suggestions..? of course, something like from the Shield Zone series would be great but its not sold here and its a lil pricey..money's tight after the purchase of the MB.

wow. prices for Mac hardware in Malaysia sure is exp. They are making a killing.

ya...therefore i always for to singapore for apple's hardware...

for Mini DVI to DVI connector, is it compatible with the ones from 12" powerbook g4??

i went to mid valley's apple center just now and asked....the guy said cannot....but it looks the same also.....

with the current exchange rate, the "cheaper" prices in Sg really doesnt justify the time and money spent on travellin thr to get it... dont u think?...

Aiyo, take it as a holiday/ short vacation lar.
I went there last year.... hell lucky i didnt bring my extra card/ cash....

bought my Crumpler from there.

vacation?... might as well get airasia ticket to jakarta... babes r way way way way way hotter... heheh... and everything still can negotiate... though traffic is stupid la...

Hi there,
currently i'm using iBook G4 and planning to buy new keyboard.
does warranty can get any discount for accessories?

i heard from my friend, that brand new keyboard will cost RM300++!!

According to one of the co-owners of Machines,it seems Crumplers has the cheapest prices in Malaysia.

No, if your iBook still in Applecare Warranty, just get Apple replaced it for you if it's damage or not working. Officially there wont be any discount for buying accessories even you have extended the warranty. You can try talking with the shop you purchased the iBook from, but very unlikely.

lokgotz, the miniDVI adapter is the same thing from the later PowerBook G4. the very first few 12" PowerBook, Apple used the mini-VGA instead, but those were 867 MHz and 1GHz PowerBooks. the later (1.2GHz onwards) ones, used miniDVI, which is what (finally) the MacBooks are using.

yeah but mine is still okay with no any damages but my keyboard is japanese version so there's many japanese on it

thanks anyway wei

this thread is so old that i dont even remember what i asked......heheh.....

anyway, i bought a minidvi-vga connector a few months back...hehe...

Also try to look for PC hardware that works with the Mac. I recently discovered Miglia EyeTV(TV Tuner) for Mac uses the same hw as Pinnacle's. Price? RM1180(Machines) vs RM499(Mac version with EyeTV Lite) & RM399(PC version). Dun wan EyeTV Lite, buy PC version and buy EyeTV software(USD50-60?) from US. Why so like that one? Some more Pinnacle has 2 yr warranty with local distro.

Other thing that always pisses me off, Ipod price difference between here & Singapore. Why? Is it tax?

Yeap. 10% tax on electronics equipments in Malaysia.

i got myself apple wired slim keyboard, mx revolution, keyboard protector.

Saw the wired keyboard as well, but RM199 is abit pricey. Rather go for the old whitey Apple Pro Keyboard which cost RM119 if stocks last.

prasys, how much did you spend on all these? Mind to show the pics too?

Thanks.

speaking of wired apple pro keyboard, does anybody know where to find those keyboards? been looking up and down for them.

Crumplers are definitely cheaper here....but all the other mac accessories are damm expensive...sometimes even double than in singapore...

What's the price of silicon keyboard protector in Malaysia? There's one Apple Reseller in Sim Lim Square (Singapore's own LY) quoted me a whooping S$20. Fortunately I didn't buy. I bought from another store and it costs me S$10. I hope it's not too expensive.
I feel guilty for spending so much money on my MB...

The crystal case here is around S$45+. Gosh! So ex!!!
