Now that the MBs have been updated and the US Apple Online Store is still down, I hope that the RAM prices have been cut. :rolleyes:
It sucks I gotta return my 4 day old MB for a new one but I would pay $140 more if it means getting a better MB that can last one more year (or more). :D

Ever since the iPhone came out Apple has been trying to get Adobe to write a more streamlined mobile flash player. one that:
1) won't crash and possibly make the phone reboot
2) won't drain the battery too much
3) won't tax the processor so much that it creates a heat problem
4) is secure enough to keep malicious code from running on your phone.
For whatever reason Adobe has been unable or unwilling to do this. So, Yes Apple has created restrictions, but very necessary ones. Anything less would be bad for the end user and for Apple's reputation.
I paid for my iPhone, not apple.... How about apple let me make the choice if I want flash to run on my phone or not.

Has anyone noticed that the refurb section at the Apple Online Store is completely out of stock of all 15" and 13" Macbook Pros? I can't remember this being the case recently and it makes me wonder if this is related to a possible new release of those size configurations. There are multiple configs of the 17" MBP available.

Do we atheists need our own "Good Book"?
No- how ridiculous. Atheism is not a religion.

I will have to call Apple. My serial number is within the range and it says it is invalid.
Dang this is, I just bought a new battery to replace the one Apple will now replace for free. I guess I can try and return it for something else after it gets here. I don't really like having two batteries.
Change the last digit of the batterys serial number to a "C" works every time.....

No, thanks.
I'm not going to pretend to be a huge fan, or even a fan. They were before my time, but I think that's a bit of a reach.
I mean, Imagine...not exactly a nursery rhyme.

Putting aside the fact that Flash is crap....
On Macs. It's great on PCs. Isn't it ironic - Silverlight, MS's alternative to Flash, is better in Safari than Flash is.

Integrate motion sensors! With a flick of the wrist, the page will turn. Hot Damn!
Heh, and just like a real book, if there's a sudden draft, all the pages will flick past and you'll lose you place.
Considering that one of the first uses for most new technologies (such as the "book" and "moving pictures") has traditionally been porn, why not have an emergency "boss" or "wife" button to flick to a boring business report or something else preconfigured. Of course that might only work if they don't know of the feature themselves. iPorn. Gotta Love It.

My girlfriends MacBook, runs at 15 degrees C pretty much all the time.
Here is a screen shot,
Rich.
well thats wrong pure and simple. any type of circuit WILL generate heat unless it is a thermoelectric cooler which this isn't
also about the update, i just got a box like 3 days ago to return it to apple for repair of heat sink. I have had only 2 days since July that the thing has rsd'd on me. The first mabe 1.5weeks ago, being only 2 shutdowns before being stable and the next a week later being 6.
would you guys reccomend still sending it in for repair? i need my computer for work and school but also need it to be dependable. any suggestions?
oh and does anyone know hoe soon you have to mail in your computer after you receive the box?
also i found out there is an apple store in denver(close to where i live). could they replace it there?
thanks for taking the time to read my questions

Apologies...if it has already been discussed...I am at an airport, and dont have the time to scroll through all the pages before my flight departure:

Looks like a hoax to me anyway.....
Update: We've received multiple tips that there would be Pro updates in the coming days. This latest one about the MacBook Pros may have been fake. Shame on us.
..
I think it could still happen, though. I still believe AppleMayhem had a credible story, and he said the 16th would be the day. Here's hoping.

The issue being that Halo proportionately seems to have a greatest number of jerks playing, as compared to say other games.
I think you're choosing to miss my point. The feeling amongst many is that Halo proportionately has the greatest collection pinheads collectively. Whether Halo had only 4 people, 3 of them would be @$$hats, while say Forza ( which does have some seriously anal players ) might have 1 out of 4 jerks. The fact that Halo is the biggest online portion of Live, is besides the point, law of averages aside.
The shame is that a game as great as Halo, somehow brings out the worse in such a large portion of it's players.
... And yes, the PA cartoon is dead on. :)
I also promise I'm done with this, I just wanted to make sure I was clear. :)

Oh there are soooo many good songs for the promo's:
Ticket to Ride
We can work it out
I want to hold your hand
Let it be
Please please me
You've got to hide your love away
Revolution **** My guess for an early promo!
You never give me your money
Don't pass me by
BRING IT!!! :D
They should use Revolution to advertise the Nike + iPod kit :rolleyes:

I suggest a thread on vehicle selection. My new bud, iliketyla, and I are on the case. He, iliketyia, has a scooter and I have a well equipped SUV. My nano is hooked into the sound system his, I suspect, is hooked into ear buds.
So, my dream car is the Audi A8. How about you?
Haha! Yes sir, got some Skull Candy earbuds that provide premium sound quality.
My dream car is Eleanor from Gone In Sixty Seconds.

Have the physical dimensions changed from the older Macbook? the prnews article mentions more than once that it's '1 inch thin'' - is this something new? I can't recall...
The old model was 1.08 inches (2.75 cm), so it appears not.

I do. But I'm sure someone will tell us that we are idiots for thinking so and why it is sooo obvious why they don't include them. My guess is they will use loads of acronyms ;)
Well the GBT Standard Methodology of Computer Hardware End-User Inclusions (GBT-SMCHEUI, for short) indicates that any machine weighing over 9.732 lbs. Must not, under the authority of the GBT-SMCHEUI, include the hardware in question, under penalty of law. Duh.
:D
Acually, I'm a bit surprised myself. I mean, they're not going to gain a huge amount of profit by charging people for it. Oh well, my guess in Rev. B it'll be included.
