Was so curious when reading the article as I've been having Airport issues with my Macbook also I used to be able to get full bars in my home and I haven't moved, using MB in the same spots but now I'm lucky to get one bar

This may seem like a silly question but are you able to use other branded LCD's with a Mini? How does it work 2gether? Is it decent enough or is it ideal to have an Apple Cinema Display work with the Mini?

My opinion, I feel that the MBP's features does not really warrant the extra price esp. if your considering the 15" MBP. There were a few features like a dual drive that the 15" does not offer whilst the MB does. I think that the MB has the best val…

I would say it's either temperature (running too hot) I've heard some say that comps are doing randow shutdowns and it has been founded that for some it is because the MB or MBP is overheating OR Logic board Either way as you said, it shouldn't…

I think sometimes it could be better to buy refurbished items for the sole reason that a tech has specifically and personally checked the system out whilst you cannot really say that about ones sold in shops. Since you have the normal warranty &…

Go and download Coconut Battery. This tells you your battery's original capacity when first purchased, the current capacity and the current charge great lil app

Understandable that this is quite a petty post to some but if I was paying that much xtra for a Blackbook I too would expect matching accessories. I'm surprised that Apple even made the batteries black

Is it unhealthy so to speak for the MB or any computers for that matter to run at full throttle? How would I know if my computer has the ability though to run close to full throttle so I know that it's got the capacity to do so and I don't have a co…

I have been told that each time your Macbook or Macbook Pro is turned on or any other computer for that matter that you are automatically using my HDD space and RAM regardless of whether you have physically opened apps/documents. Just for running th…

If the specs are the same look at other features of purchasing from one store from the other such as warranty, location of store, compatibility etc etc. even price. I purchased my RAM being in Oz I got it here for $119 AUS$ which is quite well pr…

So it doesn't mean that my battery is wrecked?

This is kinda in with topic I downloaded the Coconut Battery Meter and about two weeks ago when I first got my Macbook it told me that my battery was actually HIGHER than it's original max capacity, now it's only 99% what could have caused the depr…

I've actually been taught that unless you are turning it on quite soon say within the hour sleep is fine but if it be longer than that you shouldn't leave it on sleep. I've been leaving it on sleep after hearing quite a few leave it on sleep. Is thi…
