VMware is just 209 today hehe at apple online store

well i dont use VLC i just extend the capabilities of quicktime through perian,it has multiple codecs.

its still 08,wait till middle of february by then it'll have ilife 09 installed already,btw even if you get now,you'll be entitled to get ilife 09,just pay the courier fee of RM39

previous gen,not that good imho

its not an atom processor lah its a fully featured C2D

err u do realize no one else has ddr3 ram apart from apple,and plus who u gonna sell 2? everyone's macbooks and pro except the high end 2.53 MBP comes with 1x1GB pairing,its not like apple notebooks has 4 slots,its just 2 slots,so even if machines give back the 1x1GB pairing you are just gonna stash them somewhere and becomes paper weight eventually,no point keeping it and also no one is gonna buy it,trust me since DDR3 has no backwards compatibility with DDR2.

err, cmon even the PC notebooks comes with 1x1 pairing so i stand corrected, whats with all the trouble of putting it on ebay and waiting for someone to get it? Might aswell trade it in and get the 2x2GB pairing, seriously theres no other pc manufacturer that retrofit their notebooks with 512x512 DDR3,the lowest spec now is 1x1 pairing. The new HP pavillion DV4,5 and 6 comes standard with 2GB DDR3.

@dvlzplayground

lol,i meant i was corrected when he said there are some pc laptops with ddr3, but again if the ram breaks makes more sense to persuade you to go for a better 2x2 pairing. Actually IMHO the 7200RPM wont be that good for the previous gen MB white,or the merom MBP,the rattle can be felt. Battery consumption will also be high.

zarule im assuming you are illiterate about currency conversion and i have taken the liberty to show you the price differences.

UK
MB (White) 2.0 = GBP 719 = MYR 3800.15
MB (Alu) 2.0 = GBP 929 = MYR 4900.07
MB (Alu) 2.4 = GBP 1125 = MYR 5945.99

MBP (Alu 15inch 2.4) = GBP 1369 = MYR 7235.61
MBP (Alu 15inch 2.53) = GBP 1712 = MYR 9048.48
MBP (Alu 17inch 2.66) = GBP 1949 = MYR 10301.10

Add 15% VAT to the goods to get an accurate pricing

MY
MB (White) 2.0 = MYR 3699
MB (Alu) 2.0 = MYR 4799
MB (Alu) 2.4 = MYR 5499

MBP (Alu 15inch 2.4) = MYR 7199
MBP (Alu 15inch 2.53) = MYR 8999
MBP (Alu 17inch 2.66) = MYR 100099

Malaysia wins hands down,like they say, hujan batu di negeri,hujan batu di negeri orang.lebih baik di negeri sendiri

haha time kasih,lol

even this is true i aint getting one,thats for sure,imagine the enormous heating issues arising? theres no such thing at the moment. Plus apple is secretive,nothing is revealed.

its actually 273pounds which is about 1463.15 MYR. If you come down to Malaysia you might get taxed try to lose the box

nope,if you bundle with the macbookpro its 273pounds for the student purchase

the MBP box,they were instances where the kastam here charge tax on site once u land so lose the box and stash the MBP in your luggage

haha there is some cases where they say you buy from overseas you have to be taxed just want duit kopi

the edu price there is as same as malaysian retail price,malaysia edu is cheaper

dude,dont u ever do research? 17inch MBP alu is not even out anywhere in the world.

@crazyee
hmm,seems your school is one of the selected schools who partners with apple to give the students more discount. I came across the 50GBP ACPP from an apple support page earlier,very good deal indeed.
