New Apple MacBook

[1mband]

Check out Apple's new toy: http://www.apple.com/ Watch the video to see how they make the aluminium body. Of course, feature-rich, as usual.

Anyone looking for a recording tool?

[GrimRiffer]

no firewire 400 on the Macbook , the OLD ones had them


and only ONE firewire 800 on the Macbook pro , is it possible to convert firewire800 to firewire400 with a cable head ?


They've gone crazy. i wanted to order the macbook but i saw no firewire?

how to use apogee or rme or firewire audio interfaces ???

why?! why must Apple tempt me so much?

OMG! I want to trade in my current mac now! Is it possible : /

same here!

yes theres a 400 to 800 firewire conversion cable.

IMO having no firewire port on the macbook is a major blow and will affect the sales abit. Not completely affect but its a decision Apple probably made after alot of thinking. After all, how many people actually use firewire?

Unless you're a musician who records with firewire interfaces or use a firewire external HDDISk drive. so yeah.

But I have to concede.. they do look good. haha. i wish i had waited before getting mine. Im on tiger now and would have very much loved to have leopard instead. got my mac last march.

my macbook is barely 7 months old and now it's yesterdays story hahah technology eh !

 

[VinOnBass]

No wonder they had the student offer...

it was such an insane deal...300 SGD off your macbook pro and + a free itouch

Now I understand that they're trying to clear the stock and thus releasing the new MAC BOOK PRO!

 

[sj2six]

Weel, reason is bcoz they want to make a more distinct difference between MacBook and MacBook 'Pro'...so if you need to use F/W audio stuffs, then you must get 'Pro'..if you are just a normal mac user, then get the 'no-Pro'...

Ultimately, their marketing is trying to emphasize more on user's experience. Their aim is to let MacBook Pro user feels Pro from the non-pro...

Now the old macbook pro is selling for $2488 almost everywhere and some comes with free 4gb ram upgrade....cool....

 

[dtrulez38]

orh?they still sell the old macbooks?

 

[Phil]

Nice nice. Something else to figure into my spending budget.

 

[neuro182]

And now they got nVidia Graphics on the new MacBook!! WTF!!

My MacBook Black becomes obsolete liao!! TMD!! Haha, time to change to the new MacBook

 

[niteblade]

firewire is pretty important for many interfaces. hope they revise it
