Sometimes when I think about it, kinda glad that I never waited for Macbook C2D when I bought the Macbook CD, all these new specs and prices keep popping up all the time, there will NEVER be a better time...

Rm4599 is the older Mid range macbook.....RM4199 is the newer entry model....
but come to think of it, the newer entry model and the older mid range model are about the same specs....hehehe........

Well, my opinion, get the older mid range macbook which cost RM4399 for super drive. 200 bucks more. From machines at midvalley. Well, it's up to ya. Hehe. This post has been edited by ronglovelynn: May 19 2007, 08:14 PM Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE last time macbook is based on non-intel chip sorry, EVERY SINGLE MacBook was made using Intel chips. I think maybe you're referring to the iBook... but that hasn't been produced since May last year

About the antivirus. Currently there are no known malicious viruses for Mac. Although there was a case where CanSecWest did PWN to OWN scenario. Basically, the Mac is directed via Safari to a malware app online and the hackers would get complete control of the computer. http://cansecwest.com/post/2007-04-20-14:5...Cancel_Or_AllowAnyway, you can download a completely free virus checker app called Clam X AV. www.clamxav.com /offtopic/ xaw512, eithanius.... I'm on to you guys.... /offtopic/
