Hi I am looking at buying the Macbook 2.2ghz for RM3700. Is that a good deal?

It's got the same specs I'm guessing

120gb
1gb RAM
Leopard...

Help!

depend what u do?
normal online, document is good enough

technically say, penryn processor is good, but not suitable for this current board, Santa rosa wasnt build for penryn processor

yes and a little bit of video editing...

i think the macbook 2.2ghz i'm looking at is the older unit not the new 2.4ghz ones...

yeah i think is good offer... just get it!

ya i was talking about old merom processor

the different between merom & penryn

light video editing by using imovie, this model is good enough, eventhrough use apple final cut express

just increase your memory capacity to 2 GB will do

err how much is 1gb of ram?

hmm... i wanna use imovie and garageband only...

and i'll probably use it for surfing only...

it's a lot of money ... if you were looknig at a brand new 2.2ghz now, how much would it be?

Just get normal sodium DDR667 1GB X2, RM 150 kao tim!

new 2.2Ghz? wait for u talking about RM3700 is used 1? or clear stock?

pricing for new macbook with penryn processor
http://www.cgcomputers.com/apple_macbook.htm

it's used...a few weeks old...

apparently the original price was RM4759?


but not sure... how much is it if it's clear stock price?

If u really like it buy it, if you dun want to spend another amount to upgrade, then wait

wait for what?

@pigduck,
Since Apple announced the new updates (using Penryn processor) the current available MBs are going off at a discounted price [and quite a heavy discount too!] so do check with the outlets before U go ahead and get suckered into purchasing something that's 'used' and uhm... well, pricey!

thanks tinkerbel... will look into it. hmmm.. so rm3700 is still too pricey...

i checked the white 2.2ghz was rm3999 but it seems to be out of stock now. wow it dropped a lot in price.

I think the price is ok, coz the white will always be run out of stock. Coz they more concentrate to sell the new macbook. Even if u buy this 2nd its still consider new coz the age is only 2 weeks old and u save RM300. My 2cent.

Sadly i'm looking for Macbook Pro. If not I'll be taking it.

I'm also thinking about macbook. But maybe will wait till mid year and see what steve jobs can conjure up.

i think next upgrade will be around June the most
new chipset from Intel will be launching.

RM3700, the price okok loh. Try to nego with him and see
i sked he registered the macbook d, then must be lower that RM3000 (i feel), cuz the ownership is no longer you.

The ownership is transferrable. Furthermore you need to register it if you want to get AppleCare support.

Agree. You are for more discount, other people will grap it. As long as its a fair deal people will do biz with you. My experience is, the are many people in the look out for good buy, sometimes cannot be too choosy. As long as it suites your budget and value for money for you. What others opinion may not be right.

Its like stock market, you want to buy low, but usually too late to act.

after register, ownership still can transfer?
how?
for the same spec, clear stock price is RM3999


new macbook second spec, RM4599 (penryn)

hmmm ownership is transferable? hopefully...

@pigduck,
Of course ownership is transferable. All u need to do is just contact them and change the name, and if u don't like the name that he's put on the Mac HD, just do a total reformat/reinstall and voila... brand new

I suppose if it's in good condition, 3.7k is oK kua - as a forumer mentioned, it's really up to how much u want to spend and what u think is worth. If u like it, just get it if it's within ur price range

@chrono_breaks,
I read earlier on a thread a forumer (tishaban) ordered his MBP last night cause he found the price toOOo hard to resist See if U can find that thread (am afraid i can't help u there - need to go off to bed oredi) otherwise just send a PM to tishaban
