    Color Macbook Pros?

    Hi Guys: Anyone thinking that the next lineup of macbook pros will be in a variety of colors? Macbooks now come in the spectrum of colors and I don't think it would be that much of a stretch of imagination that Apple will do it for MBP too. I would love to own a space grey mbp. Just don't...

    Price-conscious storage for MBP

    Hi all. Getting a new computer for college. I'm coming from a 2011 MBP, and I find it just about powerful enough for most things I do - a bit of coding on Xcode, some music-making on Logic, otherwise just word processing and web browsing (usually with too many tabs...). It's starting to get a...

    I'm updating a friend's mbp (mid 2009) and wondering what would be the cheapest ssd in range of 500G or a little less, that fits to mbp5,5? Any trim problems with some ssd? The mbp won't be used to do any heavy work, but fast boot times, better battery life and quicker overall usage would be...
