an4rew Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 I don't see much point in having 4gb of ram in a macbook. Leopard is hardly much more of a hog, nothing like vista thats for sure as it runs on my 3yr old imac really nice. 2gb of ram is the sweet spot of the macbook.

apowerr Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Oh come on, I just got my macbook like 45 days ago. Boo. Why didn't you wait to buy? All the Macrumor sites were reporting that an upgrade was imminent. And if you had to buy then, why would you buy the Under-Powered-Over-Priced Macbook?

Synaesthesia Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Jeez, come on! Don't worry, it's not like there's much difference between the two. The gma x3100 is like only slightly faster, it's still integrated like the GMA 950...

Because what I was reading on Macrumor was stating that new Macbooks were coming out for the holiday season (which I assumed was December). I am (incredibly) happy with mine, but a graphics boost would have been great.

waradmin Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Well, I'm jealous that he got a macbook before me, if that counts! Works for me Im more than satisfied with the one I have. 2.16GHz C2Duo, 120GB, and Superdrive. I guess more video memory wouldn't be bad but onboard is onboard, aka not suitable for games anyway.

waradmin Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 X3100 (965GMA)> 950GMA Check this chart out Impulse purchasing to have item right away > waiting Who knows, i may sell mine in another month or two and get a new one. I got the one I have now on impulse really. Walked by the "apple store" (store that sells tech stuff, mac systems, ipods, etc) at my school, saw that they had 1 left, and got it.

iarora Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Sweet....... Sucks though since I bought a new black one about 3 months ago.

CLiDE FTW!!1 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 just minor updates but then again you getting it for the same price. So, when's intel/apple coming out with better drivers for the X3100? It's terrible in OS X. I had to disable screen saver, because it cut my battery life in half. (Fans are stupid loud) But battery life in general on the macbook is GREAT! Over 4 hours for me!
