honestly, the 8GB nano sales are weak because: a) The iPod 30GB is the same price (22 extra GB for the same price!) b) the iPod 30GB+ plays video The only plus the nano has is that it's small and uses flash memory. I doubt many people would …

I don't know much about decibels and all that. Is 22 dB silent from a couple feet away? I have an MBP and I'm one of those people who like their computer silent... I assumed the MBP would be this way. I bought the MBP for its portability but no…

Thanks for the responses! Well, actually I never installed RAM in it but same thing. I just noticed the dent one day when looking at it. If I give them a complete list of the problems, they'll try to fix as many as possible, right? I'm not…

Thanks for the replies! It's one laptop purchase per academic year, so technically September is a new academic year and they can't do anything about it. I looked around the education store but couldn't find anything. If anybody else knows mor…

This is just to make sure Mac OS X (for Intel) is running on a Mac and not a non-Apple PC, right? This doesn't have anything to do with music, am I right?

I'd recommend the iMac (20" 2 GHz, especially since it's free). Unless you ABSOLUTELY need a laptop. Though I agree the MBP's noise issue is getting resolved (I think they just needed time to "settle in..." my MBP hasn't buzzed in a while), th…

To answer your other questions, you will have no problems with DVD- and CD-making and all of that. Macs are made for those things. I recommend you check out iLife, which is a free suite of applications included with each Mac. For word processing,…

Unfortunately, I don't know. Apologies. However, I'm bumping this because I'd like to know as well and it's falling off the first page.

I hate to generalize here, but if I may guess, you're a former PC user, aren't you? Macs generally have less built-to-order options than their PC counterparts. If you don't like the options of a model, choose a better model. Notebooks aren'…

People have said that the MBP has a warmth comparable to the PowerBook G4. Since the PBG4 has been out for several years now and a couple with the same anodized aluminum as in the MBP, with no problems regarding shortened life due to heat, I think …

I like both equally. I like the iMac G5/Intel because of the iSight, very slim design, nice screens and iPod-like style. Also, it's awesome when I show people the iMac (for the first time... PC users) and they say "where's the computer?" and I s…

In my honest opinion, you don't need an iMac. For you I'd recommend the Mac mini Core Duo. (I wouldn't ever get the $599 model... yuck). That's a nice machine, and it works since you need more deskspace. Just get a cheap LCD monitor and you're…

Thanks! How long did it take to change from "dest sort facility" to "out for delivery" and were there any steps in between? I have to leave for school in fifteen minutes and I'm really hoping it's there by the time I come back. :P

Yesterday, my package arrived at the "destination sorting facility" at 5:40 AM. Does that mean I'll get it today?

Quote: Originally posted by Purgatory All the flights from Shanghai are going through Anchorage, so far as I know. I thought it meant "International shipping release." In any case, I'm not sure exactly what it means, but it's the step befor…

My FedEx page says it's shipping from - get this - Anchorage. I live in the Northeast U.S. Just a quick question, though; Does anyone know what "initial shipping release" means?
-
I'd give it 20 minutes. :P Maybe then they'll shut up about the whole "The MBP is 1" thin so why doesn't it have a DL SuperDrive?" thing.
-
Nobody's received their MBP's yet. The person who "received" it was actually someone on the Apple team, and they just took pictures of the packaging. EDIT: I don't think so, anyway. It's possible FedEx was able to ship in three days. (Maybe …

Most people believe the battery life is not posted because Apple was (and is) still working on that. I imagine they're still doing tests, even now. But don't worry about it. SJ said the battery life will be about the same as the PB's, so that…
