that mouse is pretty cool. I've been using my trackpad on my MBP for so long now that even if I set it down on a desk, I wouldn't want to bother with a mouse, it saves time between clicking and typing, but i can see that mouse being nice for someone with a full blown desktop.

 

I am very bitter about anything Mac. Someone at work needed a new Macbook Pro and budget is tight so they had to find a Macbook in inventory. Since I *can* work with a PC I had to give up my Macbook Pro.

I can tell you that I hate Lenovo Thinkpads. They perform absolutely horribly in so many ways.

 

You should have lied and said your mac is mission critical.

 

This new 27in iMac is nice! I like the screen! I'm kinda in the market for a new screen. Someone needs to to make this as a display only and sell it for $600 or less and I'll buy it.

 

Buy their led LCD display???

 

Anyone know if it's worth it to wait for the new MBP's or should I just get one now?

 

I would wait.

My guess is they will be introducing the i5 into the Macbook pro soon.

The Mac Pro is also due for an update shortly as well.

A relatively good resource pointed out to me by someone else on the board (who it was escapes me right now):

http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/

 

^ I actually had just finished reading the buyers tips on that site before I made my post. Looks like I'll keep waiting...

 

Wow, 64MB to run a mouse.

 

If you want to run a Logitech mouse to it's full program, you have to load their 60MB program.

 

I picked up the magic mouse today (finally in stores) this thing is SWEET

And the new 27" iMacs are fucking insane in person. just tits.

 

Sweet! hopefully the weird flash performance issues are resolved soon.

 

So I got into macworld 2010 Feb10-13 for free

What day do you think they will have the announcement for all the new goodies??

 

I think it's usually Tuesday.

Is it in SanFran you want to goto CEO Massage?

 

i have the 27" i5 and its so fast...i got it off of ebay brand new upgraded to 2tb hd and 8gb of ram...im gona try to update the ram to 16 gb but its gona cost me like $800 do u guys know it is worth doing it? the speeds i get now are pretty good

 

Unless you open alot of programs at once and/or memory intensive programs, no I do t think it would make too much of a difference.

 

Ohh... Then I guess there is no point on me going I think since I put my badge on will call I can't pick it up until the Wednesday or some crap like that, plus I have to work on that Tuesday

what CEO massage?? ??? What?

 

There is a rumor that the new Dell U2711 will use the same panel as the 27" iMacs

 

^Actually, didn't Apple say they would no longer be attending MacWorld?

 

but what do you mean about the CEO massage?

 

^They offer a happy ending, and then some. Of course I've only heard about it.

 

they have a apple lcd screen already im not sure the size its pretty big but it cost $899

 

Where??

and what does this have to do with macworld??

 

The place is in SanFran. You can google it. A bartender told me about it while I was out there for VMWorld. Never made it over there to see what was going on though.

 

Can't wait to check Google Trends for "CEO Massage" in a couple days...

 

Apple is no longer attending MacWorld hence why it was free this year. It's going to be lame. It's going to be a trade show for Apple products in which Apple will have no official presence.:theghey:

Supposedly they'll announce the iSlate (iTablet) b efore then, not sure though

 

Did anyone buy an imac?? My dad is looking into getting one, just curious to see if anyone on here got it, and has some remarks about it?

 

Buddy of mine has a 27" iMac, loves it. I have the previous generation iMac, love mine.

There were some issues with the new 27" screens though. You can get a lot more reviews on macrumors.

 

I've got the 27" iMac with an i7 and 8GB of RAM. haven't had any issues with mine. I also heard issues of people having problems with screens arriving damaged, or yellowing. Haven't noticed the yellowing problem on mine, but I did get the warranty on it so I'm covered.

I'm running SL and Win7 via Bootcamp.

 

My 24" previous gen aluminum refurb is just dandy

 

nice, this will be our first mac computer. The only thing we have from apple are iphones. Although this won't be my computer I look forward to playing with it whenever I go home.

 

Looks like I'm going to have to buy a Mac. My wife has been brainwashed by the Apple marketing machine over the last 5 years. It was inevitible, first the iPod, then the iPhone, now a Mac.

Looking at the MacBook Pro 17".
Any recommendations on specs? Will be primarily to work on photos and video. Probably Photoshop Elements and Final Cut Express.

2.53Ghz Intel Core i5 or 2.66Ghz Intel Core i7?
4GB RAM or 8GB RAM?
Base warrenty or extended AppleCare?

 

Core i5 should be plenty enough for you, I think. I may be wrong. Do you only have choices of 4 or 8gb of ram? No 6?

Since you will be spending over 2grand on your laptop I would suggest applecare. But see from someone who has a mac. My friends who have had macbooks, have had a few hardware problems here and there. But these were older models. So I dunno how reliable the new one is. But I would get it.

 

I just picked up a 15" MBP i7 4gb ram and it is SMOKING FAST. Runs quiet and cool. Couldn't be happier.

 

I'm really liking the new Mac Mini with the HDMI port. I haven't read all the specs on it yet, but can it play 1080p videos to an external display via HDMI?

 

 

what's this magic trackpad??

27inch led cinema display

Geebus Mac pro with 12 cores!!

 

Core i3/5/7 iMacs.
