btw, you still need windows. at least for some of the applications.

Hmm, why you need a mid-range mbp? go for the low end, Rm7499 version. mid-range version is just got higher vram (graphic card ram) and bigger hdd space

i mean low end mbp la. high end mbp is 17" punya. Btw, it is too huge. Handle 17" before. Not suit me

well, you just ask yourself this simple question.
"Do you play games (those high end games )? or Do you need those extra vram?"

If you don't, then just choose the lower end version. Save few thousand and use few hundred to max up the ram

what wrong with few hundred? rm300 also can be said as few hundred mar.

yea.. here you go --> http://www.newtek.com/news/releases/08-01-06f.html

Btw, it got both version (windows and mac) for quite a long time lo. The 3D application only for windows is 3Ds Max, and interior design application which is autocad. You still have to use windows for those applications

Well, if you serious in gaming, then you can choose the mid-range mbp. Btw, when in gaming, then you have to use windows (xp or vista, either way will do)

For me, it is the 17" punya. Really fugly man. It seems like the keyboard looks too tiny in 17" mbp

Do you mean that 9k mbp? If you only want to play warcraft 3 only, just get macbook la. It is more than enuf. Seriously, even Pentium3 can play warcraft3. If you not into those FPS games, then just get the low end mbp, Rm7499. Save few thousand and use like less than "rm300" to max the ram till 4Gb. You really don't need the extra VRAM if you are not into serious gaming.

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"

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

update quite long time ago lo..

black 1? how come? The differences are just the extra 40Gb hdd and the colour is BLACK

no problem dude. As long as you got the huge ram. Btw, usually i open 3 apps in my macbook, DRW, PS and AI cos i doing web-design. My macbook ram is 1.5Gb. So it is just minimum. So far so good, no problem. But if you open a bigger file then you probably can only open either one of those programs.

Recommended is 2-3Gb ram. 2D applications need RAM, not the graphic card. 3D applications need graphic card as well. I have not test 3D applications in my macbook. I think no problem 1 la if the file size is not so big la. If you really into 3D animation or video editing, then mb is a no-no for you. Get macbook pro or mac pro

Get macbook is more than enuf. Sometimes don't quite get those rich /b/astar. I saw a customer buy mid-range macbook pro (Rm9k+). What did he use for? For business only.. aiduh la.. Why need pro? macbook is more than enuf

yea i know that logic.. Just sometimes piss me off.. And i encounter one teen girl (15-16yr old), got iphone le.. That's life

i think you get me wrong.. Did I call you /b/astar? Nope.. I don't think so. I refer to that customer I serve. He bought mid-range mbp (RM9k) just for business usage. SO?
