So today i decided it was more important that i learn how to use a mac this summer then waitinf for the merom so i went to my local apple store and picked up a new 15" Macbook Pro 2.16ghz 1gb ram 100gb 5400rpm hd plus a free printer and a 2gb iPod nano (the nano will go to my brother as i already have a 60gb ipod video).

I must say, as soon as i powered it up i realized it doesnt matter what they will come out with in the future....this is awesome! Although i will say it gets HOT, i can still type with it on my lap and touch it wouthout getting scalded. So far i have heard no CPU whine although i dont know what to listen for exactly.

I can take the heat. This computer rocks. Thanks for everyone who's posts i have used for advice.
 
Congratulations:D :cool: I'm jealous!!!!

But with your HD, I think you mean 100GB 7200RPM? Or is it the 120GB 5400RPM?
 
the free nano and free printer only sweetens the deal... if only i waited another two weeks... o well :p
then again, i def dont need ANOTHER FREE printer and already have an ipod.
 
heh, i'm in that same "should have waited" boat... 2 weeks after my 17" MBP, they come out with the free iPod/free printer... of course i already have 2 printers and 2 iPods, but hey, free is free right

j/k I LOVE MY MBP, OP, congatulations
 
Congrats, mine is currently somewhere between me and the amazon.com wherehouse.... waiting SUCKS!.... oh well, Enjoy!

I am really sorry but I think you mean Proud. It was quite confusing at first when I read this thread title.
 
Based on your post, I'm led to think that you've made the switch. Congrats :D
