Nah I purchased my through work from a supplier, get some discount and work cover the VAT for me :D

Just need to go and see them and collect it today, will get some pic's up too once I have set it up. I'm a switcher so really looking forward to using this after spending lots of time with XP and Vista (x64)

Can't wait...

I got HE discount so the upgrades were "free" in a sense!
 
Very nice!

Is that a 17"?

Can't wait for the backlit KB as I tend to surf and send mails whilst lasying in bed in the evening (not good for sleep I know) so having the light off will make the missus happy :D

Lol

There is a 17" behind the mammoth! The 2.8 is a 15". Physically there not much different dimensions wise.

The screen on the Unibody is amazing! The LED backlit display really makes a big difference! So much brighter!

Excellent stuff.......

Enjoy, no doubt will see me on here later asking questions (after I've read the very informative sticky's in the software forum that is:) )

Your's is rubbish. Mine is amazing! Cant believe you spent $4Grand!1
 
Haha! That's never going to get old that! :p

I visualise Alrik at the other end in complete "bah humbug" mode rocking back and forth with his windows laptop on his lap, just shouting out "4 Grand" randomly, in the style of Father Ted.
 
Well got home and unboxed the new MBP!!

I'm so pleased with it, the keyboard is a pleasure to use, the screen is stunning, my work (Lenovo T60P) laptop screen look absolutely terrible after using this for 5 minutes, even flicking through facebook pictures is a real eye opener.......lol

Trackpad scrolling etc is smooth as you like...

I can see me roasting windows when at home from now on....very very happy

 
Glad your initially enjoying it! :)

One thing though! Get Adium! The microsoft messenger you are using is terrible!

Also get Perian and Flip4Mac.

Hope you enjoy it and learn all the little nuances and intricacies of the OS. :D
