Hindi ba mahirap gamitin mga sis? Windows user kasi talaga ako ever since eh. Planning to buy new laptop kasi need na mapalitan yung Vaio ko na gamit ko for 3 years na.

[ayami]

^ di ako nahirapan sis, may iPhone na kasi ako. Parang mas steep ang learning curve pag nakagamit ka na ng iOS like iPad/iPod. Mula 5 years old ako Windows user na rin ako, kala ko mahihirapan ako nang bongga di naman pala.

[whitebishop]

three things to note lang on the difference between mac and ibm compatibles are:
1. keyboard: yung command button ng mac is the counterpart of ctrl button sa windows/ibm-compatible
2. yung touch panel for mac kailangan mo idiin ng konti ang pindot para magclick as opposed to tap lang sa windows/ibm-compatible
3. start button for windows dock for mac

Not at all Some stuff like mentioned above like the Ctrl button is a little odd sometimes but you'll get used to it. Mac's aesthetics is so seamless, you would hardly notice

[mizzybebz]

Thanks mga sis sa response. Been using iPhone naman since 2010 kaya kahit papano meron na rin ako experience. Haha

Ask ko lang din, mga gano kaya tatagal ang MacBooks? I read somewhere, 4 years daw ang life span?

Got a good deal with Power Mac Trinoma (ata?)
P74,990 MacBook Pro 13in with Retina (256 SSD)
Free Apple Superdrive
50% off Office for Mac
6 months installment

Will buy the unit on Saturday! So excited!

[ayami]

^ nice deal yan! to think 256 na tapos may superdrive ka pa. I bought mine last November naku I should have waited pala no. Sayang! haha

I read somewhere here sa GT na around 6 years. I'm planning to extend mine rin for around 4 years. I bought mine around 80K pa. and 128 GB lang siya without freebies

[mizzybebz]

^ Thanks sis! Grab ko na nga 'to. Haha

Wow! 6 years! Ang saya nun pag tumagal ng ganun din yung sakin. Pero 4 years, okay na rin ako dun.

Go na Good deal yan.

[mizzybebz]

Still confused! 

Sir Charlie of PhilMug gave this deal:
MacBook Pro 15in Retina (256 SSD)
P78,000 CASH
P6,690 for Office for Mac

Super liit lang ng difference ng price to think na Quad-Core i7 na yung 15in.

ang issue ko na lang talaga, eh I travel a lot. Usually, during weekends, umuuwi ako sa province namin. Maging issue kaya kung 15 in. yung kuhanin ko?

Need your advise mga sis.

[teeyah]

Medyo heavy din sya if lagi dala, IMO.

[mizzybebz]

^ Hindi naman lagi dala sis. Usually, pag umuuwi lang sa weekend. :/

[whitebishop]

I had the 13 inches macbook pro as a gift to my wife.  I ended buying her an ultrabook because mbp pro 13" is still heavy for her.  I suggest buy a macbook air

[teeyah]

^ Hindi naman lagi dala sis. Usually, pag umuuwi lang sa weekend. :/

You should be okay. Though for me, I drive and rarely bring my MBP na 13", bigat na bigat pa din ako Or maybe it's just me.

[karla1o]

Hi mga sis! bought MBP 13" last week...

anong masusuggest niyong cover and sleeves?

may nakita na ko na usual na gamit, yung brand na Speck... saan available yun? thank you

[ayami]

^ I don't really recommend sleeves. Nagaaccumulate pa kasi ng dirt pag ganun e. pero yun nga medyo cute ang dating pag may kulay or something or kung palagi mo tinatransport yung mac mo. Pero pag sa bahay lang parang di na kelangan

[whitebishop]

^^i'd rather go for the hard cover than the sleeves plus silicone keyboard protector.
