i have a question to ask, i plan on buying a sealed unopened macbook from someone that bought it a month ago.

Does the warranty start on the date or purchase or the day the macbook is started?

User also does not have the receipt, will there be problems when i claim warranty?

Thank you

When I check with the website, it ask me to submit proof of purchase.
It wrote cannot ascertain my warranty period.

So took a photo and they took 2 days to update the warranty coverage. rclxms.gif

Cuz driver for bootcamp isn't perfect
Windows 7 isn't lean as Mac OS X, task require higher performance to support
Google chrome is RAM hog

Have you gotten yours already? Do you use it for Photoshop or anything?

I want to get a rMBP but am unsure if 8Gb is enough or should I max it out to 16Gb since I plan to keep this laptop for a long time (currently replacing my 2008 MBP).

No...I got a Intel NUC instead sweat.gif sweat.gif

It's more for desktop replacement but since NUC is half the budget so I decided to save money, hehe
