@neekun

Oo,i see.But still better than pay 4799 and get original spec.lol

I still havent make decision want to buy now or not.I might just wait for january Macworld then only see how it goes. biggrin.gif

err u do realize that macworld doesnt necessarily mean a refresh on the mac line up do u? Yes there is a refresh but normally this time around its just the mac pro or the desktops. Theres a timeframe apple adheres too,not every 3 months change new product.

but dont write off the possibility of a new/refreshed macbook coming, especially with the known bugs that the current rev a macbooks have. the macbook air was first introduced during macworld.
*
i seriously doubt there is,apple wouldn't just create a new line of products after less then 2 months of launching the current line up it would be a PR nightmare and on top of that those early unibody adapters would be furious,to know their macs are discontinued. Macbook air has already been refreshed String has the new one. Whenever theres a new product dont buy it straightaway,as it is the first version thats what apple has thought us so far bugs also existed in the core duo macbooks and pros,they didnt immediately change to C2D macs did they?

How to do the calibration?
*
use the battery until its totally dry,it'll go into sleep mode but the white indicator on the bottom right will still flicker wait for it to go off first and then fully charge your notebook.

Added on January 5, 2009, 10:00 pmHmm. Is there a way to maximize my safari like that? The + doesnt seem to work that well.
*
eh safari only opens the website according to its intended site,if you stretch it there'll be that unnecessary white space that looks odd,to stretch drag the open window from the bottom right.

the old/new MBP bro~
So far i see most "Mat Salleh" love to use 17"
i think they got it quite cheap at US compare to Asian Country~

Too bad the graphic card for 17" MBP is the same as the 2.5Ghz MBP only...should adopt higher graphic card spec for better usage biggrin.gif
*
actually i have seen a fair number of people using 17inch MBP normally those heavy on video and graphic editing,mainly for the screen but the new macbookpro last 8 hours and has the option of going 256 SSD,8GB 1066Ghz, and 2.93 GHz c2d,now that'll leave the 2.53 in the dust.
