Yup, the Apple logo is backlit on Apple's laptops. Q. for all: is the Flash plug-in on Macs still *that* much slower than on Windows? It sure as hell used to be, but the latest …

I use it and find it perfectly fine, it runs at a decent enough speed on new macs (mines an old G4 800 powerbook) and if your content is running really slow you probably need to op…

Note: for reference, check out my game at www.ninja-man.com All done in flash. First up, plugin performance. Yes its been **** forever, but flash8 is substantially better - on a G…

Hmm. Flash opens in around 7 seconds? That's faster than my current computer. But my computer is getting old anyways. :x

Donald Trump is not a graphic designer. Even if he was, don't use something because you saw it done that way on TV. As for Flash, it runs better on a PC. Both the Authoring Enviro…

Studio 8 works pretty fine on Mac, can't expect everything to be lightning fast

As far as developing the Flash itself, it's more or less a toss-up. Macs tend to have better tools for working with the media you'll incorporate into your Flash content, though, so…

Has anyone found a Neoprene carrying case for the MacBook Pro yet? I am looking for one in black. I cannot seem to find anyone carrying it for the MBP, yet. Thanks.

I expect Tucano will produce one, I use their SecondSkin range for my Powerbooks and I love them!

@bloodline: do you know who sells tucano products in the US?

I have a Marware sleeve for my 15" Powerbook, which I'm very happy with. I'm sure it would still fit over the Macbook Pro.
