Both iWork 08 and Office 08 for mac can be installed, but please bare in mind that "Use at your own risk" LOL
Some problem encounter when using the same serial pirate Office in two LANed MacBook, only either 1 can use it at a time. Maybe system detects repeated serial?

ya , th system will detect the repeated serial .
mean while , i just upgraded my macbook 2.1 from 1 G to 2.5G .
using KVR Ram ... so far no problem .

has been running parallels with AutoCAD in it . no problem so far . if u want to use parallels smoothly , must have at least more than 1G of memory , or else it will be laggy everthing u change the programme .

iphoto loading is very fast too .
recommended to upgarde it ... RM135 for 2G memory only . using kingston KVR .
meanwhile , was planning to upgrade to 3G . but when upgrade to 2.5G , found out o.5G probably wont make much difference . while what i can observe in my istat , i alsways got 800mb ram extra free+inactive.

Wish to get the new MB 2.4 white.
hoping to get it with credit card free interest 12 months instalment.

Yeah, an MBP can handle gaming pretty well, but you'll need to install Boot Camp to play most games out there.

Please don't ask about piracy here. I believe it's against the rules.

deleted bout that certain topic.

i've heard lots of positive comments.
i'd like to hear negative ones also.
any regrets buying mbp?

yaya, i wanna noe too.. nv own a mac product b4... jz everyday read AppleByte forum and addicted to it. everything is not gotta be perfect, sure got something to talk about the on the negative side of mac.

Cons:
Quite warm at the bottom part of the MBP. Not comfortable to use it on lap for long period.
Some MBP still have some problems ejecting disc. Have to try few times.
Built quality not as good as MBA =D

i never used the laptop on my lap. (how ironic is that..)
a friend of mind said it was not good for mens' health

anymore negative comments, anybody?
there must be other annoying things..

haha, then how about mibile phone?? some say that the signal oso will affect that 'part'?? lol....
the heat problem is serious? how about when playing game?? temperature will heat above 60?

not point to buy a 17' MBP just for gaming...
with that price u can get Dell XPS or a better CPU for gaming experience...
Don't waste money and not make the full use of mac machines..
somehow i still do not agree to use Mac just for gaming...

It's quite hot especially when you playing graphic intensive games. I'm not sure about the heat but it's not comfortable.

He didn't meant that he wanna buy it just for gaming but since you have a high performance machine you might as well install some nice games right?
People buy macs for two reasons, showing off or for the Mac OS/softwares

I just notice that my screen panel came loose at one corner.

Where can I send it for repair?

When playing games. it's 60+ for temperature. It's better to have a well ventilation around your mac. Or you will fry it.

Negative side? this

so, only the heat problem?? any others??

heat is PC/Notebooks first enemy, you know

Not all notebooks for your information. IBM thinkpad manages heat well.
