Yeah, don't get me wrong, my i7 iMac is the better machine, and it makes a big difference over the i5 on heavy applications because of the overclocking feature.
The boot times are also way faster on my i7 iMac, than the i5 MBP. But some of that's down to the slower 5400rpm drive in my MBP...
LOL. Hobbit has two 'b's', Mr Full Size. :o
Yeah, well impressed with the i5!
Does anyone have any issues with playing Windows games under Parallels? I know Bootcamp's going to be smoother, but it pecks having to reboot. I have a copy of Parallels so I'll try that if it's not too buggy.
Long story short, my old 2009 Core 2 Duo MBP had a recurring fault which was repaired, then eventually replaced with a new Core 2 Duo MBP. That turned out to have discolouration on the base, which I wasn't happy with. :o
A call to Apple and a polite email later, and this arrived yesterday, in...
I use a glossy MBP and 27" iMac 'professionally' with no issues.
That said, even if it was worse, I'd pick the glossy on the MBP purely because of the fugly border. lol.
Don't bother. It's better in some conditions but next to unusable in direct sunlight.
Plus, it gives your MBP an ugly silver border around the screen, which is even worse than the Maxi-Glare screen itself.
