uh guys...i think i'm already through with the 'cool looking' factor of a glossy screen
today i've just wasted RM50 on an anti-glare screen protector from Raytec. Yeah stuff are pretty expensive here, so dun comment on it things changed when i actually turned on my Mac. This screen protector makes everything grainy...can see those small red/blue/green particles all over the screen. i dunno how to explain this (a photo can't show it...well my camera cant) but it kinda looks like when ur screen is damp. so can anybody recommend a good anti-glare screen protector for me?? another shop sold me one 'anti-glare' from Walker...it was still damn glossy. i came back, fought n argue n fought until i get refund haha |

Hello...what an interesting and lively thread here. Should've been checking them out sooner.
I've been a Mac user for 2 years now. First one was the white 20'' iMac. Just recently bought the alum MacBook from MacStudio. Got it upgraded to 4GB transcend RAM. Been crashing and freezing a few times a day. Log says records it as kernel panic. It's not about the software because it can freeze even when I leave it turned on for over a few hours. Heat is also not a problem because I use a lappie fan. Did some research and it might be the RAM that's the culprit. Just got it back to MacStudio earlier and they were very helpful. Their taking a look at my MacBook now. It's only been half a day. I miss it so much. I'm wondering if anyone had similar problems and if so, how did they solved it. I was a little shocked because this never happened to my iMac before. It does crash once in a blue moon, when on heavy duty load on AE but not every other hour on the same day. Suggestions/insights and feedbacks welcome... Thanks. |

I don't remember seeing one. Still, the staff at MacStudio say they will check it out and change the RAM for me. I'm pretty sure
it's the RAM that's causing the problem. Well, I asked them to change to Kingston instead. They have to order it though. I'm waiting patiently. Seriously, I miss my MacBook. I hope they get it done in a few days and by this weekend tops. I need it for client presentations and and it runs the Adobe CS3 smoothly. (minus the kernel panics of course) Asking all sifu's in the art of mac to pray with me for a speedy recovery. To the gods of Mac, we salute... Added on February 18, 2009, 1:01 am QUOTE(cRazYee @ Feb 18 2009, 01:57 AM) I was there this morning when they performed the Verify disk. Everything OK.I did a hardware test with the DVD and it says OK also. I read in other mac forums that the new Unibody Macs have a problem with certain 3rd party RAMs. I think Transcend might be one of them. They've recorded similar problems with their MacBooks+Pro when they upgraded their 4GB RAM. This post has been edited by redashton: Feb 18 2009, 01:01 AM |
