I've been using the MB for a week.. I should say that the thing that I love the most for the moment is the touchpad. I mean the multitouch.. for the 1st time, I would prefer the touchpad rather than an external mouse smile.gif
anybody else agree?

Hi!
I'm new here.
I've been considering getting a mac for a while now. But something has been bugging me. Its the Performance-to-price ratio.
The mac i've been considering is the macbook 13'' unibody(which is 4799)
The thing is, on my way to the Apple store, i saw this acer notebook at 4499 but with 90gb more hd space, a 9600m GT, "Blu-Ray"!!!, and a 16'' full hd screen.

I intend to make this a desktop replacement so i'm asking whether the macbook would be worth it?
*
Bluray? i bet you wont use it. cuz review back youself, how many original DVD you buy b4? if none, then i hardly see the way to go into bluray world

Acer quality? crap! I was acer user b4
another thing, i have a fren using almost same acer as you describe, bluray, 16", battery life like crap! 1 hours, that's all!
screen viewing angle is shxx! maybe you can go to understand why ACER does make cheap laptop, and what kind of component quality they use.
and it's very very very heavy, make you dont even thinking of bring everywhere

you rather go for Sony Vaio FW instead

Hi, just get myself Apple MacBook 2.4Ghz yesterday. 1st time Mac user here. So, please mind my noobness  notworthy.gif .

Got it for RM5899. Miss the Christmas promotion coz of long company holiday but the sales person nice enough to give me some freebies  : CaseLogic Neoprene sleeve + Capdase Keyboard sleeve + Mouse (for XP use  tongue.gif ) + 4GB Tumb drive. Good enough for me coz never like the Belkin messenger bag. Going to buy Deuter Backpack instead  thumbup.gif .
Nway, my 1st question. I already found out that need to buy Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter to connect to LCD TV/Monitor, but I'm not sure to buy which one
user posted image  or user posted image

to connect to the Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter.

p/s : going to use hdmi cable to connect to my LCD TV
*
i not sure whether i work or not
like last time, mini dvi to dvi, if you try to use DVi to VGA adapter trying to convert it, it doesn't work, pin abi different

i recommend directly use dvi to hdmi cable

new Alu Macbook pro users beware, my MBP is having a problem

the trackpad click is getting less responsive. I have to click for more than 5 times only works for once, tapping works fine.

I will probably call Hotline when i wake up later (Not in malaysia). will keep you guys update.

Did you apply the trackpad update? That supposed to solve the clicking problem.

Try this link
