I read some reviews that Vista is fastest on the Macbook Pro.

QUOTE(joey70i @ Dec 19 2007, 03:06 PM) Thanks.....yes I still need to run some windows prog from time to time... Do graphic stuff such as 3D? If it is a yes, then you have made the right choice. If you do heavy CGI, I suggest the mid-range or higher end ones. Depends on your budget. If it is not-so-heavy CGI, the low end one is more than enough already.Added on December 19, 2007, 3:12 pmSince I sometimes do graphic stuff and was considering the macbook pro and since now can run dual os so much the better......but can it run all the windows prog?  About the OS, it is like you are having Vista on the Macbook Pro. It means you can treat it like a PC thus it can run all of the Windows program. Afterall, really want Vista? Why not XP? Afterall, if you want to run Windows and Mac OS X at the same time, you need a virtualization software such as Desktop Parellels or VMware Fusion. The Boot Camp is mean you can use one OS (neither Windows or Mac) at the same time, not multiple unless you are running Mac OS X with virtualization software. |

QUOTE(joey70i @ Dec 21 2007, 02:17 PM) As for size, not really matter but the 17' is really a bit too big coz my current laptop is 15' and as for weight, i thing my current one is heavier. Get the mid-range MBP like what others said. I am not into serious shooter gaming kind but more of the Warcraft type gaming.  By the way, I love the 17". It is just me.  |

QUOTE(ZhaoYun @ Dec 21 2007, 03:51 PM) I am totally against the idea of getting either a PC or a Mac for gaming. Getting a PC to play games is expensive, getting a Mac to play games is even MORE expensive. I agree with that. But sometimes games for PC/Mac such as Warcraft III cannot be played on the console such as PS3, Xbox and etc.Save some money to get a MacBook, use the extra money to buy a console. RM 1500 xbox360 or Wii to play "Try-before-you-buy" games, cost you no more than RM 8. Purely my 2 cents worth. |
