People, I'm joining the club biggrin.gif

Won the bid for a used 1.8GHz MBA, 80GB HDD+plenty of accessories on eBay! The MBA is just 2.5 months old, and the price was just too good to resist... All the following items for AU$2351 (about RM6915):
- MacBook Air 1.8ghz, 80gb HDD, 2gb RAM, 13.3" Screen
- 2x Power Supplies
- Apple Remote
- USB Ethernet Adapter
- Apple External SuperDrive
- Micro-DVI to DVI Adapter
- Micro-DVI to VGA Adapter
- Micro-DVI to TV adapter

Decided to get it after finally being able to spend some quality time testing out & fiddling with my mum's Air.. Now I realize how much additional weight I've been carrying to uni every day, and I'm definitely lookin forward to days with less pain on the shoulders smile.gif

I'm not sure what your needs are, but I'd say that if this is your first/only Mac, get the black MacBook... This thread on MacTalk AU would be a good read for you to decide.

I guess start up time varies and it depends on several factors such as whether automatic login is enabled, how many apps are launched at start up, how much stuff there is on the desktop, etc... Never actually timed it, but whatever it is the time it takes doesn't bother me that much as I seldom shut it down.. Just close the lid & go...

It wakes up from sleep considerably fast, and so far there's never been any instances where it doesn't go to sleep when the lid is shut which sometimes happens with the MBP...

Better not let your Toshiba hear what you said or else it'll end up like this poor little thing. tongue.gif
