New macbook pros

Postby paliometoxo » Fri Apr 16, 2010 7:00 pm

so i was sent an email from apple telling about the new macbook pro.. 10 hour battery life on the 13 inch and 8 to 9 on the 15 and 17 inch models,, before i wanted a 15inch now i am going to get the 10..

it has more ram better processor more space including a new 512GB SSD!!! :D imagine 512gb of ssd, but it costs an extra 1,200 added to the bill :O costs more then the laptop itself!! haha

anyway maybe they will release another with the new iphone or make it cheaper.. link

I got a 32Gbyte Corsair SSD and ran my PC on it for two months until it broke... :cry:

Customer service was very good and they replaced it (I had to send the broken one to Holland) but it was very disruptive as you can imagine...

I now have a 500Gbyte WD Caviar Black with 32Mbytes buffer and a 32Gbyte ReadyBoost drive!

:lol:

Be patient mate, wait a few weeks and the 15" will come down in price. 13" a bit small isn't it?

edw eimai re file :)

yes the 15 inch seems a bit small but the 15 inch when i see it from close the mouse looks far away form the keyboard, the 13 looks nicer plus has 10 hours of battery, i am going to wait until the summer maybe june to get it..

really frag? ssd looks good to me, but i never had ssd only sata

I would suggest to get a 64gb ssd for the OS, programs, games. More than enough. 512gb is just to extreme :S
