So,how are you running it on your CoreDuo MBP?
It comes in one version that runs on both 32-bit and 64-bit processors and on both Intel and PowerPC platforms. There's just one Mac OS X and it is designed to accommodate all users. No two hundred different variations like those of Windows Vista (and even XP).
 
Tell me,does the iMac (non anti-glare) screen affect our eyes?Do all Macs lack anti-glare screens?
LCDs are anti-glare,dunno how iMac doesn't have.

Well, if LCDs are anti-glare, then the iMac's is anti-glare too. Why ask if you already know it? :rolleyes:

@Preshit,
What was the second package for? The Apple Wired Keyboard?
 
From what I know Matte screens are Anti-glare but Glossy screens are not.Any conformation?

Also, if you are in a qualified university you can get a free ipod touch 8GB or ipod nano 8GB. In the US, you also get a free printer after the rebate. Good deal huh? Better get the deal or else it'll end.
 
Is it true that Apple is now offering student discounts on buying macbooks in India ?
MacBooks or MacBook Pros or all macbooks ?
Yes, it is. 12.5% flat.
What was the MRP again ?

Is it there in India also ?
And by university, do you need to be doing your masters course only ? Or do even bachelor cources qualify ?

Are there other companies doing something similar ?

No, I don't think it is available India. If you have a friend in U.S., Canada or somewhere supported, he/she can buy it for you. I got the full set. Macbook Pro+iPod Touch+HP Photosmart C4480. All for paying only the discounted Macbook Pro price. It was totally a blow off deal. I couldn't imagine another deal better than this.
But, I still had to pay tax of the ipod and the printer.:mad:
------------
BTW, there is a discount for all macs. I checked

Hey, let's reserve our comments for after his having used Mac OS X for a month. Let's see then whether he feels it's a "big deal" or not. :)
