motherfucker

just picked it up this weekend, replaced my MBP C2D 2.16 GHz.

 

the new design is so sexy

screen is awesome too, i was always a glossy screen hater, but this is pretty sick.

 

mine finally got here this morning. Can't wait to open it and check it out

 

grats... i see at least two other ones in the background, although not new-gen

 

will the glass on these be as easy to break as the iphones....? thats what worries me

 

You seem to forget that all other laptops use glass for their LCD screens.

 

What the fuck are you doing to your laptops that this is a real concern?

 

i havent seen any with glass on the front of the lcds

not me personally...just wondering...i have read multiple stories of people with cracked iphones...just hope it isnt has easy on the new macbooks

 

so is there no clicker button on the trackpad... or am i blind?

 

iphones arent easy to crack, the only way to do it is to drop it on tiles or concrete. you going to do that with a laptop?

 

the trackpad is a button in a way...you can press it in

 

Just because you see stories doesn't make it easy to crack...

I dropped my first gen iphone off my lap onto cement when getting out of my truck 10+ times and it only had a few scratches on it when I sold it....and those scratches werent even from those drops

 

way cool

 

yes, yes you are.

 

ya lol, where have you been

 

he be dancing on the lid

 

fix'd

 

I tried it in the store last night and I have to say I wasn't very pleased with the feeling of pressing it. Not to mention anytime I clicked on a text field on the 3-4 I tried (using one finger) I would get the option screen as if I control-clicked it or something. Became really annoying after the first two times.

The coefficient of friction though is something else completely....pure ky warming liquid on a trackpad

 

i second that

 

I wouldnt be able to do any work on a glossy

 

pansy.

 

you crazy for this one rick. Yeah, i do hate the gloss + glass effect. Half the time i feel like i'm looking at myself in the mirror

 

its that bad, huh? i thought it had a lot to do with lighting & current angle of the LCD

 

you're right, which for me is half of the time under some obnoxious lighting in my design classes

 

Pah, work. Glossy is superior to matte for catching the lights in starbucks and directing attention towards myself.
