Selling Macbook Pro For Macbook (Black)


Recommended Posts

Hey,

Basically I have a Macbook Pro 15" C2D 2.33, 2GB RAM and x1600. I have played with the lower end Macs as my Mum and sister both have them, but I haven't used them extensively. I want something I bit smaller and more portable than the Macbook pro and I was just wondering what the downfalls of the Macbook Blacks (or white) are for those who use it everyday. If I don't end up getting a Macbook I'll end up trying to get a Dell XPS 1330 laptop.

And insight would be great! Thanks!

air.

thought about the air for about 2 seconds looked at the clip they have on the site, but 1 usb just doesnt cut it. 2 usb's really isnt enough in the first place but I can at least deal with that.

Things I need are.

VMWare.

Cisco Configuration.

Email, Web.

messenger.

Music

Nothing really graphic intensive.

The Air wouldn't work for you also because most Cisco tools require a serial port. ;)

Exactly and I use a keyspan via USB all the time for the serial port.

I'm thinking of maybe now keeping and using the macbook pro as a desktop type machine and getting the macbook as my laptop.

Good idea, a MacBook Pro is a perfect Workstation Replacement unit, throw a 30-inch display on it and have fun running it headless!

Do they have Wake on LAN while in sleep mode for the Macs? because that would be very handy!

air is the silliest thing i've seen. just get macbook. whats the point of it being thin when you have to lug around a dvd drive? i call that pointless.

What's the point of spending 2 grand for a piece of ****.

Who cares how thin it is?

Get a blackbook, they're pretty cool, and portable :)

    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
    • Watch Louis Rossmann's recent experience on YouTube about trying to get a warranty replacement from Samsung. It's crazy.
    • That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.
    • They use FREE AI. They aren't paying for this meme-generating slopware...
    • Gotta' buy that there Rufus guy a beer if I ever meet him. He makes good stuff.
