Wow, I didn't know everywhere in KL is running out of stock. I just confirmed yesterday at Sunway Carnival (Penang) that there's lots of mbp availability. Price is at RM5799

The new model will experience vga ram upgrade from 128mb to 256mb and those from 256mb to 512mb. The processor also will experience increase in clock speed. at least that's what he told me.

@tishaban,
I thought most standard MBPs come in the matte version. Gloss is separate / special order, no?

matte 1, color are more accurate
Whereas, glossy is best for movie.

That's why you see cinema display, macbook pro standard are matte screen
glossy screen, the brightness is over boost.

depend personnel needs, i will go for Matte

FYI, Standard mbp doesn't come with glossy screen, if you wan, that's custom order pack.

@Balok,
I've no idea which is more expensive; matte or glossy but with the MBPs you have a choice. With the MBs it only comes with the glossy screens.

your windows computer has to create a sharing workgroup
if yes, your mac should be able to see the workgroup under finder

then just type the account (which is login in windows) and password

remember that, as default, u can only see shared folder until u enable other drive/ folder
