I read somewhere() that there is a 12 percent off offer on MacBooks and MacBook Pros if you're a student in an approved Indian University.

If that's true, then the cheapest MacBook comes to around 45K?

Heyy does anyone here have any idea where this drgrude is ??
I don't see his profile on the first page of this thread too

 

[goobimama]

Ashwin seems to have boycotted the forums ever since there was that big hoopla about him and his moderating thing. But that's in the past and let's not discuss that anymore. He however is in good health last I checked, and I assure you that you will see a lot of him in the coming future. That is all.

 

[jamesbond007]

Okay Boys we won't be able to access our .mac accounts from tomorrow morning 6:30am (approx) to 12:30 noon. That means after the lunch we will get our push notifications That is if my PDT to IST conversion is correct

Problem here!
My iMac gives me occasional shocks.Mild ones.Keyboard also does that but not doing now as I have plugged iMac into another plug.And I can feel the electric current flowing inside my iMac on touching it's surface.Earthing is properly done.So,no earthing problem.What else might be the problem?Aluminium?
We all know that metals are good conductors of electricity.
During summer season,as the temperatures are high,the metalic wires or appliances like iMac consume the electricity flowing inside them.It is the tendency of the metals to do that.According to Ohm's law,as the temperatures rise,metals start eating up the electricity.That is why there are power cuts in summers.When the temperatures fall low,there is almost no loss of eletricity.When I turn on my AC ,I experience less or no electric current.
Can this be the reason?

 

[narangz]

When Iturn of my AC ,I experience less or no electric current.
Can this be the reason?

Your AC has some problem. It is leaking out the current into the earth wire.

 

[SunnyChahal]

I experience currents even when AC is turned off

 

[narangz]

You wrote less or no current when AC is switched off

 

[SunnyChahal]

Corrected!

 

[iMav]

Earthing problem.

 

[SunnyChahal]

Any threat to iMac?

 

[praka123]

regarding the poll , apple mbp military edition

 

[iMav]

Any threat to iMac?

No. Get the electrician to test the plug point.

@Aayush: Shouldn't the profiles read as - Apple stuff he'd like to own.

Any more info about this discount?

 

[SunnyChahal]

I have tried in two different plugs but the same problem persists.I am running it via UPS.Should I try plugging it directly into the plug?

 

[goobimama]

So you aren't getting shocks after plugging it onto the UPS you say? That is, only UPS, with its plug removed from the wall socket. If you are still getting shocks, then get your mac checked. Otherwise, its faulty wiring.
