Anyone here who owns a Macbook? I plan to buy one in the following weeks and would like some feedbacks/reviews before I invest in a very expensive hardware.

I want to know the pros and cons...

I hear a lot of pros in other forums, but none of the cons, pretty much hard to believe....

Don't you think discussions in apple website are a bit biased? Puro magagandang reviews kasi.

I want to hear it from the users themselves.

Pinoy Mac is for sale?

 

Well, most probably Im getting a mac anyway....

it boils down to usage, actually... i was thinking of wither getting a shuttle or a mac mini... almost the same ang price, kanya lang, shuttle wont come with and OS and all the programs, comes comes with almost everything... downside, mac SW isnt really, uh, "freely enterprisable" hehehe... and most of my favorite games are Win-based... also mas sanay ako sa windows, although di gaanong kahirap ang learning curve ng mac eh

 

also try www.philmug.com

Well, one reason why Im shifting to mac is because of the intel core duo chips and I've heard that when you install bootcamp, you can use 2 OS, it lets you choose if you want Mac OS or windows XP. At least some of the programs Im using in windows will still be available. I really hope it really works. I also heard of a program called parallels... it also allows windows to run inside mac OS.. pretty cool....

 

Actually, I already ordered my Macbook, depends nalang on when the stocks will be available.

is the ram of the ibook g4 upgrade-able?

the ibook g4 has 256 ram.

 

It sure is! I'm using an iBook G4, upgraded from 256 to 1.2GHz...had it done by Sengco,my mac dealer.

 

The downside of upgrading my RAM is now that it performs so well, I don't have a reason to upgrade to the MacBook!

[smoothcriminal]

i've used mac along time ago.. it was with MAC i learned how to use a computer and perhaps understand its inuendos.

 

now, i mostly use Windows... i didn't change religion though... I am still a staunch believer of Mac... i only have issues on its economics.

[leurfz]

Issues with the economics? Macs are actually cheaper than their PC bretheren here in the Philippines (unless you count the Frankenstein computers cobbled together in China)

 

Toshiba laptops with similar specs to an iBook are around 10-15k more expensive...and don't even ask about the Sony Vaio series.

with laptops yes... i think what smoothcriminal is talking about is a mac desktop (that is, an iMac, eMac, mac mini plus its periphs) compared to your typical IBM clone. while a mac would cost you upwards of 60K, your typical PC package from gilmore will only cost you about half that price.... although, if you do get a branded IBM clone here, halus ganun din ang price sa Mac

wouldn't it be nice if there is an MTC widget on your Mac?

The Macbook 2.0 White is still out of stock! Looks like they're having difficulty in supplying thousands of Mac converts!

to reset your password, you have to start up from the software install and restore the disc

that came with your mac. after the installer opens, choose INSTALLER > RESET PASSWORD

from the menu bar. From there, just follow the step by step instructions on the screen.

Wow, dami ng Mac users. I'm game for a coffee EB. If I remember correctly, that Coco Grill restaurant along Kalayaan (where TA had an EB) offers free wi-fi but wait, coffee's not really their specialty. Well, there's always Coffee Bean in Greenbelt 3. Plus, they're used to having the PodCentral people there

 

I installed Warcraft III on my iBook so now I can play DOTA anytime I want. Gawd, how geeky is that. haha!

I am planning to buy a macbook the only problem is how to roam using pldt weroam.

I check with senco and they informed me that there is no external adaptor to connect the

antenna to mac? any suggestions?

My advise is to buy from someone else! mwehehehehe

 

Seriously though, I'm not sure how the weroam will work with the internal wifi connection of Mac products...I'm surprised Erwin (the head tech guy at Sengco) didn't know the answer to this one...maybe you should ask other suppliers like Liteware/LMK/Ynzal if they've dealt with this problem...I'm sure there's a way to fix it.
