I sure hope the screen opens wider than the 15" MBP. I took the 15" MBP back because the screen faced my chest while it was on my lap. Unfortunately I don't see any indication it w…

I wonder how long it will take Apple to drop 15" pricing. Quote: Originally Posted by Stratus Fear For me, there's a point where resolution becomes too much at a certain scree…

At least they list battery life for the MBPs on their site now. 5.5 hours for the 17" seems just a bit optimistic, though... what did they say the 17" PB would get? I didn't think …

but then you go blind from having to stare at tiny pixels all day. My flatmate is the same - he goes for the highest resolution possible. And then can't see anything, not even th…

Come on guys! Apple delivered a new laptop that fixed most of the problems that you were all whining about - too few USBs, no DL DVD burner, no firewire 800. And now you're complai…

I think that these new Intel-based laptops should use the same technology that the Mighty Mouse has to make a "stealth" right-click out of a one-button trackpad.... This way, if yo…

The main complaint is on the laptops. Sure, you can plug in a two-button mouse, but that's one more thing to carry with you. And cntl-click doesn't work for everyone, especially pe…

On a mouse, you have a natural primary and secondary button, the primary being under your index finger. It's fairly intuitive. On the other hand, I can see two laptop buttons bein…

I dont agree with that. All of the Widows laptops have two buttons and there are a ton of "regular" users and beginners using them. The problem with control-click is that it is a p…
