I wonder why Apple Malaysia doesn't lower the price. Apple Singapore drops the price of the newly updated Macbook. I bought my Macbook under the Education Discount. Previously it was priced S$2087, now it is only S$2048 (around RM4717). Not too bad rite? Price without Education Discount is S$2188.

I think they haven't updated that. You will find the updated version when you click the "But Online" button though. smile.gif

just came back from CG Computer (Switch) Sunway Carnival, i learned from stuff there new MacBook pricing is Rm 3999 for base model, Rm 4759 superdrive + white and black model RM 5459. These price applicable for Cash and Credit Card purchase, but CC purchase need to add 4.5% tax.

New macbook using intel X3100 instead of GMA 950. The older stock sell starting at RM 4199 but comes with RM 400 ++ diskaun on accesorries or another apple product.

It's the 'bank' tax actually. In a way, it's good that we can better deals if we were to pay cash, but the idea of walking around with 8000 bucks in your pocket surely does sound scary.

What model are you planning to get anyways? I'm planning to get mine next week. Maybe we can 'gang' up and push for better deals? biggrin.gif

Should be.

The previous GMA950 is Intel's production while the new X1300 is by ATI.

Then it becomes a Powerbook if you do that. What's differentiating the Macbook from the Macbook Pro is the dedicated graphic card.

What's stopping you from going Pro if you really want the dedicated card? Everything comes with a price, nothing is free.

Main reason is Gaming. Apart of that, 3D rendering la, Video Editing la, photoshop and those 2D application will have slightly better performance due to no shared memory wink.gif Hope you get a good idea.. If your main focus is 2D application, then macbook is good enough for you.

The GPU is used by Apple's Core Image eg. Final Cut, Motion, real time HD effects. The dedicated GPUs provide much better performance than the Intel integrated graphics.

But ya, I will wait too if possible. January, the rumored date for the new subnotebook is not far off. However, expect the price to be a low end MBP price, it won't be Macbook level pricing. I would guess that it will start at the black Macbook price (US$1500) with lower specs, but significantly smaller/thinner.
