I can't wait for the new mbp to come out. just bought my mbp from ebay. sigh. it seems to be the stupidest choice since it's supposed to be updated now. but i need to get one now. too bad.

Recommendation from macrumors.
MacBook Pro Recommendation: Don't Buy - Updates soon Last Release June 08, 2009 Days Since Update 240 (Avg = 200) MacBook Air Recommendation: Buy only if you need it - Approaching the end of a cycle Last Release June 08, 2009 Days Since Update 240 (Avg = 255) I am predicting speed bump and bigger hd this month for mbp. For mba, could have cosmetic changes with trackpad and ram increased to 4gb. |

I am a macbook white user. So far no problem. Its just that the MBW can only support up to 4gb ram but I think thats enough already. About the durability...again its a macbook not a Dell ATG or what...

im using MBP 13". honestly...i think the new unibody macbook white is much better looking....specs are same aside from the illuminated keyboard, sd slot, firewire. I think they also came with bigger hdd size....

If you can find MBA for less than 4000 Id advise you go for that. You wont be sorry.

QUOTE(dvlzplayground @ Feb 3 2010, 11:08 PM) that's because Msians dont earn that much to support luxurious products. MBA is like a Rolls Royce to a MBP as a Beemer. U pay more for the a slower car. but the thinovation. I see alot of MBAs in international airport. we are just some poor basterds. XD |

Well, here's the case. I have about RM 2000, and I'm intending to sell my Macbook for 2k this weekend, which ends up with 4k.
With that money, I can get the Macbook Pro with nVidia 8600M GT for 4K, using all my money. OR, I can get MBP with X1600 + an iPod Touch 64GB. Can't choose between two. Oh, btw, I'm not gonna use Macbook after 2 years, and I'm intending to sell it off to get a gaming lap/pc. Which one should I choose? Any suggestion? Thanks. No insultions please. Added on February 9, 2010, 6:31 pmP.s i need macbook for my school, which I won't go to anymore after PMR. I'm Form 2 btw. This post has been edited by mematron: Feb 9 2010, 06:31 PM |

which MacBook Pro comes with x1600?
personally, I would get the nVidia 8600, but I am biased, cos I'm using it now the MBP w/ 8600 is a laptop, so you can expect to replace the battery cos it will not last 5 hours after using it for 2 years anyway. |

keep the money to get a custom build desktop rig or a gaming laptop like toshiba qosmio, then add on a nice 5.1 audio system.....
those are already enough to send the macbook and ipod touch to graveyard.... ps: school nowadays require macbook??? |
