  • Black MacBook. No problems with heat so far. Nothing more than any other Mac notebook I have had previously.

  • Quote: Originally posted by shetline Even though, say, $50 is more than an extra 20GB of drive space is worth, you can't order a MacBook with no drive at all and throw in your own 80GB drive. Since you have to pay for at least a 60GB drive, it en…
  • Yeah, me too. But my thinking is I replace the ram sticks on my own. And then maybe the hard drive in a year or so once with (hopefully) something like a 140-200 gig 5400 drive should those exist by then.
  • Why would more people buy the Black MacBook with added memory and hard drive when those are both user upgradeable for a lot cheaper? Am I missing something? I feel like finally apple has given us an option of being able to buy the model we want an…
  • I actually think that both are equally prone to scratching should you choose to scratch it, but I think the white would hide it better based on the way the iBooks held up.

  • Black MacBooks are sold out all in all the Apple stores in Los Angeles. Clearly they should have charged evern more for black.

  • The replaceable hard drive seals the deal. I'll be picking one up as soon as they are not sold out everywhere. (3 apple stores in LA today were sold out of the black model by around 1PM. Only one even had it as a floor display) Not only am I g…
  • Looks very cluttered. Not exactly easy on the eyes.

  • Presuming this is DVD quality... As long as it takes me a shorter amount of time to walk 5 blocks to Blockbuster and rent a DVD rather than wait for my SBC Yahoo to download the content, burn it to DVD (if I can or need to) and watch it on my Lar…
  • RE: 10 months I'm not a ROLO claiming insider info by any means, but I will bet that you won't be using ALAC more than a year from now. It is a bridge codec, Other than that, I am staying out of this conversation. This thread is not supposed to…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Telomar Wow if ever you needed proof that people speak total crap about being able to hear differences in sound quality this, and your previous post, are surely the posts to quote. Also good for condemning the mass pa…

  • Quote: Originally posted by melgross Have you ever heard of "Apple Lossless Encoding"? Yes. But more importantly I have HEARD Apple Lossless and it doesn't sound great. At any rate, my comment was that this is not a Hi Fi stereo replace…
  • How can you call anything that plays compressed digital files "Hi Fi"? This isn't necessarily a bad product, but nobody who cares about audio would replace their stereo equipment with this thing. It's embarrasing that this is supposed to be news…
  • Not to mention it only comes with an 80gig drive with a max option of 120gigs. if this is going to be my media center, I'm going to need a lot more room than that. I have 70 gigs of music as it is. Add in any photos or video and I'm out of room o…
