Considered once to get a MacBook when Apple just announced. Until now still not done so yet. And now the price hiked. Regretted...
Anyway, my MBP 2011 still working, a bit slow though...
I think I will wait till next generation...
Please do update us about your experiences.

Anyone here considering/considered Hub+? Seems awesome...

Just another random question, how's the performance using flash on this new MacBook?

Do you often use flash player/browse websites with many flash plugins? How do they perform?

Yalo... But adding another ports is a little unlikely. Unless it sacrifices its thinness.
Upgrading its camera is more likely.

Perhaps they could expand the use of audio jack port as another mode of data transfer? Just like the old 3rd gen iPod shuffle..


I've already upgraded to 8GB when I first bought this MBP. It was EOL product when I bought and Switch upgraded the ram for free as promotion.
1 year later I upgraded the hard drive to SSD as there was some issue. The system (Mountain Lion) hangs/restarted itself.
After the upgrade, the problem solved, but the system didn't get too smooth until Yosemite.
Now I'm using El Capitan, I'm quite happy with this version. I just can't use the continuity and most of the other new features after Yosemite.

MBA is now 1.7cm thick; MacBook is 1.3cm thick. Based on the design, I don't find any possible space to put in another one in the near future, unless Apple is willing to sacrisfice its design or battery...
Another reason that I don't think 2nd port will be added is that MacBook is designed based on portability. Would you plug in many devices when you are outside? I don't.
I do think there is a possibility of upgrading battery life and audio jack as future data transfer port as per 3rd gen iPod Shuffle. The idea was brilliant!

Not sure why. It wasn't like this earlier until Marvericks. Compatibility issue with SSD, perhaps?
Anyway, everything gets better after Yosemite.

I guess so...
MacBook is definitely a good portable device among the Macs. But it is now too expensive to begin with as a base product.

I'm not as greedy as you are.
I just hope upgrade in performance.
I'm quite satisfied with the battery life as what this MacBook has currently

Luckily the Edu store in Malaysia is not so strict.
Though, with the edu price it is still expensive...

Yep...
without edu price it is RM5899...
The price difference is RM230...
With such money you can almost get 3 adapters or 2 charging cables or a power adapter or one third of AppleCare or 1-2 computer bag(s) d...

Can't really compare two different line of Macs.
They serve different purposes and different targeted consumer groups.

Really ar?
1.3 to 3.1 is a huge jump...

Not very sure about this.
So, which processor can it comparable with?

No...
You should go for macbook pro or iMac...
If you are rich enough, then Mac Pro...

Space grey is still the nicest..

The main difference is with applecare, you still can send back to Apple anywhere worldwide. With harvey norman's you have to send back to Malaysia's harvey norman for the second and third year.
This only applies to Mac, not iPhone or iPad.

Then you will have to make sure the Harvey Norman here is the same company as in worldwide...

Will need to check with your warranty terms and conditions...

Whether a product is overpriced or not, it is very subjective. It all depends on the users' satisfaction.
To you portability might not be relevant, but to others who need to travel here and there, it makes difference.
Overall apple products are all overpriced based on your point.

Based on your flow of thought, no Apple products is not overpriced...
In some aspect, you are right.
Ans usually people who have the same thought as yours will choose non-Apple products, e.g. Acer, Asus, Lenovo etc.

It will be smaller soon...
