  • Glad your enjoying your 17". I cannot recommend a better bag on the market than the STM 'Convertible'. The padding and protection is quite astonishing. It transforms from shoulder bag into backpack in a matter of seconds and will suit whatever mo…
  • Many of you have seen me moan about the "one thing and then another" lines from Apple that I have had in regards to recieving my C2D 17" MBP, well, it's happened again today on the day I was looking forward to getting it!!! I am just about spit…
  • This whole thing has been a farce! I don't think they know what they are doing. I recieved a mail on Tuesday saying sorry we promised you 14th Shipping it will go out on the 16th...THEN, they did actually ship it on the same day anyway. It was sa…

  • Anyone else think that Apple should sack all its marketing staff and use us guys on these forums to dictate its future plans ( ). Funny how when we all want something we become fast talking marketing experts. We are the consumers after-all, we …

  • Hi, This problem of freezing and Office:Mac on the MacBook is a major worry of mine right now! I am about to buy a MacBook Pro 17" and will be getting MS Office for Mac 2004. I am just about to start the most important year of my life at uni (…
