Mac Users Of Mtc (apple: Go Ahead, Take A Bite!)


Recommended Posts

Did you guys see the new stuff they presented? Cool.

 

I like the Macbook (formerly Macbook Air) coz it's so tiny but no other ports, for obvious reasons. And the color too!

 

I just checked it now and wow ha, pinalaking macbook air tapos binago lang ang kulay :huh: appealing yung 8gb built-in RAM pero medyo deal breaker yung absence ng conventional ports. Eng eng lang siguro bibili neto

So ako na eng eng? :P

 

But thank you for highlighting.

 

I just really need to give up my MBP. Ang bigat e.

And I love the color so yes eng eng here :)

 

ngek, dont take it the personal way. Pero kasi practicality lang parang hirap mag transfer ng files nyan. Kung yung normal MBP lang eh nakakalito na mag transfer from OS X <-> Windows ng files pano pa pag wala yung ports na kelangan di ba? Besides, lighter and thinner nga sya pero mas prone na masira mga ganito at mahirap humanap ng pagpapaayusan.

 

Ako rin naman nabibigatan sa MBP ko na late 2008 model pero I'm happy na rin kasi I got it loaded up to 8gb RAM at 1TB HDD tapos meron pang CD drive. Battery cycle ko buhay na buhay pa at 96%. And to think I got it as second hand for 30K+ lang 2 years ago. Still serves me well up until this day for my designing needs.

30k?! Ang mahal. Sana you just bought mine. Sold for 20k.

 

I usually change every two years but with your long explanation I might reconsider postponing :)

 

Thanks and nothing personal taken against you.

 

:)

 

Sa singapore ko pa kasi binili yun and that was 2 years ago pa. It was in a very good condition and considering upgraded na yung HDD (SATA not SSD) at RAM I figured it was a steal. Kung tutuusin natawaran ko pa nga yun kasi the seller posted it as 40K pa. It's not retina pero it's a MBP so who wouldn't want that di ba? hirap kaya maghanap ng MBP na ganun.

Still have the non retina mbp because it's upgradable. Swapped the cdrom with an hdd carrier, removed the hdd, and installed 2 ssds. Plus upgraded the ram to 16gb. That's the office based laptop. I also have macbook since I also need to be mobile at times.

 

The specs are obviously not mbp grade, but for on the go work, the new MacBook is a good laptop.

My wife used to think my Macbook Pro is a waste of money. Hirap daw gamitin etc. Blah blah, like every windows users afraid of change.

Now, nasira na totally yung Acer aspire na binili nya around 2011 and she's using my MBP on her work (Virtual Assistant)

 

Ngayon gusto na nya arborin. Bumili na lang daw ako ng bago for me.

 

Bought might early 2010 btw. Problema lang battery cause it can only last now around max 2 hours.

^ser, kung nasa SG ka pa, tingin ka sa HWZ baka makatsamba ka ng murang MBP, dun ko nabili akin hanggang ngayon buhay pa at matatag ang battery cycle. O kaya naman kung battery lang gusto mo replace merong pc hospital (not sure kung yun nga yung name) malapit sa aljunied MRT na pwede mo mabilhan ng parts for apple products. B)

I'm back here na sa Pinas for good :)

Sayang nga maganda sa website ng Apple SG, merong 'refurbished' macbooks for sale. halos 50% off discount.

pareho pala tayo haha for good na rin ako ... ay oo, nasubukan ko din yung refurbs ng apple sg website, bumili ako ng ipad 3 dun na refurb and sulit naman kasi pinalitan ng bago yung mga parts na may topak. Yung box pareho nung mga nakikita sa retail pero may nakalagay lang na label na refurbished sya. Took 3 days for the package to arrive kasi galing pa mismong china haha...

 

As much as i hate to admit it, yun yung nakaka miss sa SG, yung convenience na madali ka makakahanap at makaka-afford ng mga ganung devices as long as you have the budget for it. Dami kasi dun puro "bought on impulse" kaya kahit second hand mabili mo guaranteed na ok sya.

 

Either way, dapat talaga marunong ka humanap at pag nakatsamba ka ng item na talagang gusto mo then nataong may budget ka, bili agad or else wala na yan mamya! :D
