Yeah, 200 bucks off just for going to the student store. People are expecting updates in a month or so, but it wouldn't be anywhere near as big as CD>C2D, and you could wait until the end of the year for Leopard if you wanted to wait. Either wait for Leopard or buy now, I say! (If you feel like waiting but not quite so long, give them until after WWDC in June!)

PS, I fell in love with Mariel's 17-inch PB, but only got a 15" MBP for myself and I'm beginning to have adulterous thoughts. Make your choice wisely!

So I'm thinking about settling on the 15 inch 2.33 GHZ model. Is this a good idea? Will this be GOOOOOOOOOOD??

That's the one I've got~

Oh wait, with the student discount, the 17 inch version becomes $2600. That's not as bad as $2800 but still...

All I'm saying is just think about it real good. If you want a 17-inch you want a 17-inch. If you don't, cool!

Does anyone know where I can buy OSX?

And, like, how to install it on a pretty Fujitsu?


Just do searches on your warez sources for OSx86. Buying it does you no good unless you just want to own a license (since you can't use the official install discs on non-Macs), but you're breaking the EULA when you put it on other stuff anyway so I don't see the point.

Wtf. Since when can't you install your own software on whatever you want?


I can't tell whether you're just trolling or what? OS X as it exists on its install discs cannot be installed on non-Mac computers. You need a hacked version from the OSx86 project to install OS X on a non-Mac computer. This is why I was confused at your desire to buy the operating system; the commercial version is useless to you without a Mac, and, in addition, the EULA that comes with OS X expressly forbids installation on non-Macs anyway.

The MBP with 1920x1200 is not LED backlit, only the 15.4" MBP has that.

I've played HL2 (Win) and Defcon and WoW (OS X) on my C2D/ATI MBP and been extremely satisfied with performance, even though people were complaining about the graphics card being "old" when I got it in November.

Persona, it's purely going to be your personal preference on the screen. Go check them out.
