The tech sites and macrumor fanatics have really been slacking off, the day is almost over and noone picked up a new mbp from apple store and took it apart yet? We need answers!!!
1) What kind of ssd is it using
2) Does graphic auto switch work good?
3) Are there any performance difference between 256 vs 512mb graphic card
4) Can any 2.5" ssd still be installed
and just general reviews.

I've been pouring over the various threads on this forum and around the internet and I thought that I would share what I feel is the most useful info out there regarding the 5400 vs 7200, size, heat and noise issues.

Hope this thread will work out. I'd like the community to put all their Windows 7 Reviews in this thread. Please keep it "nice" - this is for reviewing Windows 7 and how well it runs on Macs, PC's, under Virtualization, etc.
Please state what machine your running on, the version, and your likes/dislikes. Also, will it be worth upgrading from XP or Vista? Would you need to get a new computer (Mac or PC), Virtualization or Bootcamp?
I'd like to know.. I'm testing it on a few different machines. Will post my findings on at least my first machine a bit later.

I've been considering purchasing Bento 2 and was wondering if anyone on Macrumors has experience with the app. I'm going to try the trial version but interested to see what other forum members think of the app.

This last weekend I bit the bullet, put a pile of Bens on the counter, and walked out of the Apple Store with a top of the line iMac 27" with the high end video adapter, 1TB drive and 8GB memory and wireless mouse and keyboard.The system rocks, is very quite, blazing fast and a real joy to use.I ask your opinion(s) on which virtualization software I should use to run Quicken Premier and one other financial package (Fund Manager) which are Windows XP based

New owner of a Alum Macbook 2.4/4gig coming from a Macbook Air Rev B/SSD. My question about the Macbook is the fans, I feel like even when just Safari is on, my fans are on at a constant hum at 1994rpm-2000rpm. Is that normal? Even when nothing is open? My Macbook Air was dead silent but then again that was with ssd. Would like to hear your opinions.

In the last month I decided that I wanted more portability for my laptop so I decided to get a new one.At first I was going to get an alum macbook but I was scared off by all the critcism of the screen quality.Then I was going to get a Rev B Air but I was tempted by the refurb A prices so I bought a 1.8/SSD rev A. Nice machine but I was not happy with the performance or the compromises (Hulu video stutter, Eyetv download of old camcorder movies stutter, ichat video stutter, lots of beach balls as I was scrolling in Safari, fans blaring at 6500 rpms with RSS screensaver, etc). I was depressed as I did not want to spend the big bucks for a MBA rev B, so I decided to look at the Alum macbook again. I read a thousand posts here and headed off to the Apple store with my thumb drive filled with all kinds of pictures in hand. After viewing many pictures at all kinds of angles, comparing with the Air, I decided the screen wasn't near as bad as the hype. So off to ebay to find a deal. It took 1.5 hours to do a 15GB time machine migration over wifi. Here is my review.

unsure if this has already been done, but i wouldn't mind having MBAir owners post their xBench results here...i would like to have the results for all 8 configurations eventually..shouldn't be too difficult to get all of the info I'll start it off with the xBench results for the rev B 1.86 SSD config.

If you had to take an educated, when do you guess the Rev. B aluminum MacBooks will be released? (Yes, of course no one knows, and that's why the operative word here is guess.)

Web designers or the like,I'll be buying a 15" MBP for Web Design (as well as obviously other casual use) and still undecided on whether to get a standard res or high-res.From your experience, when designing sites, do you find the standard-res too little (i.e. do you design for bigger screens, meaning you'll need to keep scrolling around) or do you design for a similar sized screen to the one you use and the browsers upscales/downscales the site accordingly?

I had an initial thread in Mac Software as I initially thought it was just a Safari 4 Beta issue.(Original thread here)But since then, it's spread from Safari 4 to my trash can and now to Numbers and Pages (It has not done anything to Keynote), the bottom panel (but not the top one) in Yahoo messenger... Even the silver navigation bar on the Apple website shows up as this weird metallic brown.What's even weirder is that the trash can is the normal silver metallic when the OS first loads and then changes to the brownish one. No amount of messing with display settings helps. Resetting the NVRAM initially got everything back to normal, but then boom, it's all stuck.

Is this not the right RAM for the 2009 iMacs? Looking at the reviews, I see this:
"Other Thoughts: Crucial never claimed this was compatible with iMacs so I can't complain really."
I think this is the same RAM that I found on Crucial.com... It is not exactly rocket science to find 204-pin SODIMM 1066MHz RAM... PC3 8800. So, are these "reviewers" just off or am I looking at the wrong RAM.

I've seen a lot of HD 6970 reviews hit the streets today. Can we hope to see some "investigation" from Cindori & company in the near future???
I would love to stick a modded version in my 2008 Mac Pro.
Retail on these cards is looking at about $370.00 (Yeah... 80 bucks cheaper than Apple wants for their single-DVI 5870 )
Requires 1 8-pin and 1 6-pin power connector.2 GB of memory on-board.

well I assume most of you know all or most of these apps, but I will be making more and more of these, so it's worth keeping an eye out, maybe I'll find some cool apps you don't know that are worth your time
