erkhh

hehe hardware shop sure got one. screws are worldwide standard parts

hi i was wondering if anyone knows where can i get a 27" imac? I tried machines at sunway however they said there won't be one til mid/end march 2010. Is that true?

Sometimes it's not always true.. I did had this problem last time with my G4, the screw for the processor is totally different. If you tried to use another screw it will never get totally fit. Still can feel the processor not intact to the socket.

Anyway do you all did found this kinda stuff for Mac Mini?


Moderator's NOTE: DO NOT DOUBLE POST PLEASE!!!!

well, the power users always in need of more RAM.

okay, this once and for all question.

Is it safe to use KVR instead of KTA ram?

^ from what i've seen, depends on your luck for some people it works flawlessly, for some people it kinda works but often got kernel panic, and for some people it doesnt work at all

RM2800 for 2X4GB RAM? Add a few hundreds, you could get an iMac.

for me, instead of burning 2800 for 8gb RAM.. i'd get an SSD

yep agree!
i spent same that same amount for my 250GB SSD huhu
4GB at this moment i think it is more than enough..

Done upgrading this macbook to 500gb hard disk and 4gb RAM. Now feels everything soo fast.

anyone interested in apple magic mouse can check out the pic at my siggy...

I have buy WD 500GB 8MB 5400RPM SATA HDD. After i install to my MBP the speed obviously slower then original HDD. Why?

Maybe the cache is low..My WD 500GB is 16MB cache..but 3.5 inch(desktop) n summore 7200rpm.

I'm using WD Scorpio Blue 500 GB, SATA 3 Gb/s, 8 MB Cache, 5400 RPM. It is different with the original?

i bought that HDD too. it seemed to work fine for 2/3 weeks..then become slower and slower. i cloned everything to the stock 250gb, swap it back n never experience the problem anymore. now i just use the 500gb as external for movies etc

no idea why though. i took it back to the shop already, got a new unit, and still same problem.

the 500gb scorpio blue shud b the best HDD for MBP...lots of reviews say so. tough luck :S
