I went to EpiCentre in Pavillion but they don't have it yet. I thought they're the premium resellers? They can't even tell me when they will be available.
On the plus side, the shop looks real nice and there's tons of machine to play around with, and the sales guys are pretty friendly too.

Do you think I should wait for the PC Fair? I've been out of the pc/notebook buying business for too long now. Last time I check, the deal doesn't differ that much from the standard LowYat offering. I do know they offer free stuff and all, so I'm just wondering, what kinda stuff can I expect here? Thanks!

QUOTE(myxery @ Nov 10 2007, 04:41 PM) 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?

QUOTE(kunamiya @ Nov 15 2007, 05:00 PM) I ask from the mac Borneo they tell me 1GB ram cost about RM350 That's the price that was quoted to me from the Apple store as well. I'm in KL.  QUOTE(kwekeugene @ Nov 15 2007, 11:05 PM) Here... http://www.macsales.com/A reputable seller. They sell cheap RAM for Macs. The killer is shipping though! If you can, maybe you should organize a bulk of some kind so that shipping can be shared. I would be interested  I just received my RAM from them. Pretty fast really. kwekeugene, you missed me by a few days.  You should order from them only if you're getting 4GB. If you're getting 2x1GB, I think it's way cheaper for you to get someone from Semenanjung to send it over to you. Good luck!

Unfortunately, that's how it works. There'll be a copy under iPhoto library. There's a tips at macosxhints on how to move the library to another folder. Maybe that can help you with the space issue.

QUOTE(LeoDaVinci @ Dec 1 2007, 02:58 AM) I read and watched the installation video just now. Seems like it's not that hard to install the RAM. But what bugs me is that whether the RAM I purchased will cause problem to my MB or not. I bought Kingston Value RAM but there are some reports saying that their MBs became unstable and will reboot unexpectedly after they installed the RAM. I am quite worried this will happen to me... Oh...that's very kind of you for offering to help me install. But I am currently in Singapore and will be going back to Kuching soon.  The incompatibility mostly happen to the PowerPC architectures. The Intel ones are using the standard Intel platform, so you shouldn't face any of the problems mentioned, unless you get a lemon RAM. Make sure you run the memtest once you've installed the RAM, it will take forever, but you only have to do it once. Good luck.
