@goldfries,
Me been using the MBP for almost 11 months oredi *knock ur head* And like u said, if ur usage doesn't warrant an MBP then no point wasting the $

@lilredridinghood,
There's a 0.6kg difference if I'm not mistaken. Between 1.8-1.9kg for the MB and 2.5kg for MBP - it does make a difference actually! *grins* I use to carry a 1.7kg 12.1" Fujitsu, and now i find the MBP a little heavy but I knew about the weight before I bought it cause i wanted a bigger screen *grins*

Ah well.. nothing's perfect right?

it's better than my compaq, about 3kg for a 15" but still using it....cannot tahan the weight, which is why the mac book.

no offense, gal.

MB weight is more than 2kg (including battery of cos) and it is almost the same weight as MBP (15" punya). I own one MB and it is darn heavy i would say for 13.3" laptop.

To be more specific, I went to apple site.

Weight: 5.0 pounds (2.27 kg) - MB
Weight: 5.4 pounds (2.45 kg) - MBP (15")
Weight: 6.8 pounds (3.08 kg) - MBP (17")

Hell yeah for the 17". and fugly looks too, especially the keyboard "thingy"

wonder wen will mb or mbp change its design?

i think probably only mb la. From Plastic change to Aluminum like mbp

i heard that an ultraportable mbp is coming out soon..

based on iBook... which design came out in May 2001, and the MacBook which replaced it [b]five whole years[ later... i guess you guys have to wait until 2011 till the new design comes out

sigh.... so long ar?
i reallyneed one unit next year

I heard the MBP has been updated recently, donno what has been updated....really

an even uglier keyboard?

update quite long time ago lo..

@allvin,
My bad for not checking proper - i compared the MBP to a Fujitsu S series @ <1.8kg for the smaller screen. Didn't compare it with the MB - thanks for the clarification.

@xaw5126,
Good !! At least I know my MBP has a long enough life span. Will probably be time to change notebooks by then I wonder if I'll wait till 2011!! *grins*

lucky u tinkerbel

@rx330,
Huh?! Lucky Me?

if u r not rushing to own one of this...then wait for the penryn processor installed into MBP...probably soon...who knows?

Just ask yourself if you would be gutted if a new MBP comes out next month. It is as simple as that. If you think that you already got an awesome machine and can't be bother if there is a new one coming. Go ahead, by all means.

The waiting game never ends....

I agree with you....the waiting game never ends. Anyway as long as i'll last me for the next 3-4 years or better 5 years then I am content.

i just got it and am happy with it.
i dont care if they use nano technology for their MBP and launching it next month. i am happy with what i have now

@ifer,
That's the spirit! Oh.. and Congratulations !

I say da current Mb range is good enough.... i especially like da blackbook...
