QUOTE(Cruzer @ Dec 15 2008, 11:19 AM) well actually they gave me back the 1gb ram er, so you get 4GB in your system and get back 1GB of ram? not quite right..if its 2X1GB sticks inside..they would need to upgrade it to 2X2GB and give you back 2X1GB right? by the way, can you use the 0% installment for the current Machines promo.. ? |

as mentioned on the site, the promotion ends 27th Dec, or when stocks run out.
sorry, I can't discuss the mechanics of the promotion on a public forum... that's not even my department |

I was asking about the file sharing on mac MSN messenger.. that guy told me there will be no problem.. then i tell that fella that file sharing is only able to run on NTFS system.. then he said "yea the macbook hard disk is running NTFS".. then i was like "really meh? not others?" then he said "i think is FAT32".. i was like =.='' wow.. machines staffs are selling mac leh.. sorry to say that they're couldn't solve my prob which i remember that mac hard disk is not running neither NTFS or FAT32 (but it can be converted to NTFS).. correct me if i'm wrong ya..
anyway no offense to other machines staff where i know some of them are very knowledgeable about apple stuff.. i'm just referring to that particular staff only.. cheers.. =) |

how much is the ram? i heard the stores charge extremely high for ram that you can get from 3rd party sources, e.g. crucial.
http://www.crucial.com/ For example: 4GB Apple MacBook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (15.4-inch) Upgrade Module Size: 4GB kit (2GBx2) Package: 200-pin SODIMM Feature: DDR2 PC2-5300 (72 Ratings) US $43.99 |
