Dhalamar Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 What's going to happen to the 13" MacBook Pros now (bought one a bit over month ago)? The new MacBook is just far better and you also save 200 euros... :/ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/835912-new-apple-hardware/page/2/#findComment-591729706 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new MacBook is just far better and you also save 200 euros... :/ Thinner, lighter, aluminum, backlit keyboard, firewire 800, SD card, 8GB ram support is what you get with that extra money.

DrCheese Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 i never said it does :rolleyes: I just am pointing out what real use is server edition on that hardware that you can't use standard OSX for... Kiosks? why do you need a server edition for Kiosk? A lot of organisations that have a few mac's for various reasons will just buy a mac mini and dump server edition on it so they can manage the mac's properly instead of buying a full on xserve. This is the market that apple is targeting. The new imac's are lovely, but it bugs the heck out of me how Apple continue to ignore blu-ray because of the whole poor "bag of hurt" excuse. When every other PC company has the option somewhere, it makes them look stupid. and why haven't they learnt from the glossy drama with the macbook pro's? They were forced to eventually offer a matte option on them, so it's annoying to see them insist on it with the standard macbooks again Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/835912-new-apple-hardware/page/2/#findComment-591729738 Share on other sites More sharing options...

dead.cell Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Doesn't look comfortable by a long shot... I'll stick with my G5 thanks. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/835912-new-apple-hardware/page/2/#findComment-591729788 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanctified Veteran Posted October 20, 2009 Veteran Share Posted October 20, 2009 I don't know why you people say it looks uncomfortable. How many of you have studied industrial design. The slim curvature seems to adapt perfectly to the curvature in your palm, a curvature that is not exaggerated by an unnecessary thickness in the device.

SolidSapphire Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 It looks uncomfortable because i don't think you can rest your palm on it.. Correct?

Rudy Posted October 20, 2009 Author Share Posted October 20, 2009 Local Apple Store doesn't have any in stock :( I guess I'll order online.... Edit: What would be the fastest?

sanctified Veteran Posted October 20, 2009 Veteran Share Posted October 20, 2009 It looks uncomfortable because i don't think you can rest your palm on it.. Correct? But you can, this design is not new. Other companies, like Iomega or Logitech have tried this design with great results.

The slim curvature seems to adapt perfectly to the curvature in your palm, a curvature that is not exaggerated by an unnecessary thickness in the device. Judging by every previus mac mouse, I don't really think the apple designers and engineers have even heard about industrial design.

(Ottawa) Order online would take around 2 to 5 days, while the store could either get the stock tomorrow or in a week. It's a gamble.

.Neo Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Just ordered the Magic Mouse. It's a bit of a gamble I know, but if it really doesn't work out I'll just return it.

I was going to wait for the store but then I noticed that the canadian store has a mistake....the upgrade for the video card is free :) *HINT HINT to the canadians* So I already ordered with the video card upgrade :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/835912-new-apple-hardware/page/2/#findComment-591729906 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoL Veteran Posted October 20, 2009 Veteran Share Posted October 20, 2009 Love the new MacBook design and the mouse looks super sexy and I like the multitouch stuff but I agree it doesn't look very comfortable. Looks like your hand is going to hurt after some hours of use but I don't know I haven't use it yet.

profets Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Come on, it's really simple to understand: it's targeted as a mini sized server. but with 2.5" 5400rpm drives? it would have been cool if they kept the shape but just made it taller, so at least you could add multiple 3.5" drives Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/835912-new-apple-hardware/page/2/#findComment-591729952 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ci7 Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 wander why didn't they opt for 5850 instead of 4850 shortage maybe and their Ci7s are nothing more then "lyenfield " lastly thought i would find SSD as an option but none that tell you something about "performance" :rolleyes: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/835912-new-apple-hardware/page/2/#findComment-591730068 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorbing Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Here's a link to the new 27" imac :) http://www.apple.com/imac/design.htmlthere's also the new mini http://www.apple.com/macmini/ and macbook http://www.apple.com/macbook/ and the new mouse http://www.apple.com/magicmouse/ Although they look great, I would wait a while. The first generation are the ones with the bugs and problems. They don't really get sorted out until after the second generation. I am sure they are going to have their issues.

Shadrack Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I fell for the marketing hype of the Mighty Mouse a few years ago... I think I'll pass on this new one. Fool me once, shame on you.

suspiria Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 According to Engadget regarding the Magic Mouse: Right clicking requires a lifting of the left click finger, just like the Mighty Mouse Count me out then.
