Hi :) I've poked my nose around this forum a few times in the past couple of weeks due to random iPhone questions.

Anyway, tomorrow I'm off to the bullring apple store to checkout the glossy/matte screens on the Macbook pro's, after which, I'll head over to uni and order one.

£1104 for the base Macbook iirc.

Firstly, does anyone have any opinions on the glossy/matte debate? I'm probably going to go glossy, as I use my machines mostly inside and like the rich colours provided by a mirror finish.

Well yeah, thats it, a random "getting excited" thread. I had been leaning towards OSX pre-getting my iPhone, that just pushed me towards the edge, and the recent penryn updates tipped me over ;)

I had considered the medium-spec Macbook for £400 less, but the poorer screen along with all the other MBP goodies, combined with it being my soon-to-be main machine means I think its "worth it".

I'll pop some pics up once I've order and it's arrived, everyone loves seeing a Macbook Pro boxing, as they all look unique, right ? :D
 
Oh, well in the case, I could have it this time tomorrow :P

Guys at apple support told me you can only get the standard education discount in store, which afaik, is less than the HE one.

Will find out in the AM I guess :D
 
Great! Let's hope they have the new penryn/multitouch MBP's in then!

To confirm, when buying with HE discount in store, does that include the 3 year warranty you get when ordering online via the HE store?

Thanks.
