A small help about comparing the MB & the MBP!!

Hi guys,
When i was thinking about getting a MacBook/Pro the main couple of things that took my attention about getting a MBP is the ability to make its HDD 320GB, Backlit keyboard, better graphic card & its bigger screen...
now with these new AMAZING MacBooks, u can have the 320GB HDD, Backlit keyboard, and of course its 9400M NVIDIA graphic card with 256 MB!!
now, HOW GOOD is this 9400M on the MacBook?? i watched the podcast of the launch for these new line of MacBooks/Pro and saw the difference between the last gen and this new gen!!
but how good it is compared to the 9600M 256MB that u find on the MacBook Pro??
i love working on Photoshop, not that much of a 3D, Flash, Gamer...etc guy! maybe some games but not a heavy game user, but as i said i love working on the photoshop and these pack of graphic design!!
WILL the MacBook be a good deal holding its 9400M graphic card??
and is there any difference between the "Sound" of each of them? or both have the same quality but the speakers are in different locations?
oh and the MacBook i was thinking about is:
2.4 GHz
4 GB RAM
320 GB HDD
it's 256 MB 9400M graphic card
and all the other default stuff!!
I am a PC user STILL (I know!!) and now i so much want to BE A MAC person!!
pls give me your advise guys and what do u think!!
Thank you so much

Displays:
Yes, there is a difference between the screens on the MB and MBP. The MB screen horizontal viewing angle is pretty good, the vertical one is fairly restricted. Both angles were better than my PB 12" 867MHz laptop but worse than my iMac 24" (2006, non-glossy screen). The MBP screen angles were very good in both directions but were just beaten by the MBA which I also looked at.
Bottom line: IMO all of the displays are acceptable for consumer use and better than my current laptop.
Well, i read the Engadget review for the MB & MBP! and there IS a difference with the screens, i guess i better have a look myself when they are available here so i can judge how much is it good/bad!
Trackpads:
No it wasn't me, there is a difference between the MBs and MBPs on display at the Store. This has nothing to with the OS catching clicks, it is purely the mechanical feel - as I said before I found it difficult to double-click reliably, I kinda stutter.... No such problem on the MBP. Strangely, the MB in John Lewis did not have this problem so I noted the machines' serial numbers: they were both Week 41 of 2008 assembled in China.
Bottom line: I'd probably get used to the MB trackpad's feel. It is strange that machines made during the same week exhibit, to me at least, different feeling trackpads. To come to a conclusion I need to try a third or fourth store and probably a different week's production.....
hmmmmm so the feel is different between the Apple store and JL (and yeah i know it very well )
so i guess the MB vary with their Trackpad feel/touch!!
and i read as u go up on the trackpad the resistant get higher for the click even tho it is still clickable!!
Did that help?
IT HELPED A BIG TIME really! i don't know how i can say Thank you other than words
u r wonderful
and i guess of course they will feel/look better than ur PB 12" and i know coz of the glossy screens!!
so all what i must do is just wait for couple of weeks till they are available at our Premium Reseller so i can run there and have a compare in real life
Thx again my friend (flower)

  • Need help about how to print the report landscape

    Hi,
    I am using Oracle Developer 6.0 Report Builder to generate reports and I am new to it. My boss asked me to generate the report in landscape style. In the Report Builder for Windows 95/NT, I went to FILE->PAGE SETUP, clicked Landscape and OK, but it didn't work. Also, I saved report as PDF file, in Acrobat Reader 4.0, I did FILE->PAGE SETUP->Properties and chose Landscape. But after the report was printed out, it was still in Portrait style. By the way, the Landscape Properties of printer working for MS Word.
    I'd really appreciate it if someone would give me some suggestions.
    Best regards.

  • Need help about how to capture the name of an object before inserting.

    Hi everybody,
    how i can capture the name of an object before it inserts in a table.
    i will use a pre-insert trigger to do this, but i don't know how to specify the name of the object that's inserting.
    any help about this issue will be appreciated.

    Mentioning objects you mean: You have a procedure which inserts data into some table and this procedure needs to know the name of the caller (another procedure or ...)
    Can this be of some help http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:382218730166 ?

  • 9.5.3 Help / About reports version as 9.0.0

    After downloading AcrobatUpd953_all_incr.msp, installing it to patch Acrobat from 9.5.2 to 9.5.3, and rebooting, when I select Help / About in Acrobat, the dialog shows the version of Acrobat as 9.0.0. When I open Control Panel / Programs and Features, it shows the version of Acrobat as 9.5.3, when I look at the properties of acrobat.exe the file version is 9.5.3.305, and in Acrobat if I open Help / About Adobe Plugins, all the plugin versions are shown as 9.5.3.305. So it looks as though it's just the About dialog that is screwed.
    I checked with a friend who also has Acrobat 9, and he sees exactly the same bug. OS on both machines is Windows 7 x64.

    I tried this on my Win7 64 bit machine and its working fine.Please try repairing your Acrobat from control panel and see if it works.

    Your code is absolutely unreadable - even if someone was willing to
    help, it's simply impossible. I do give you a few tips, though: If you
    understand your code (i.e. if it really is YOUR code), you should be
    able to realize that your minimum and maximum never get set (thus they
    are both 0) and your exam 3 is set with the wrong value. SEE where
    those should get set and figure out why they're not. Chances are you
    are doing something to them that makes one 'if' fail or you just
    erroneously assign a wrong variable!

    If Other (the yellow bar) is too big something is corrupted.  The only solution (that I know of) is to restore from your most recent backup using iTunes (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766).

  • I installed teh update a few days ago but when I open Firefox it says :"You're not on the lastest version . . ", but at "Help" & "About Firefox" it shows 9.0.1 "latest release". There's a glitch somewhere.

    This is the message when I Open Firefox:
    "You're not on the latest version of Firefox. Upgrade today to get the best of the Web!"
    At <Help> & <About Firefox>, it shows
    Firefox
    9.0.1
    "Firefox is up to date"
    "You are currently on the release update Channel"
    One of those messages must be wrong. Either way Firefox seems to work fine otherwise. Thanks and regards, Peter Spielman

    Is your homepage set to www.google.com/firefox? If so, that page is wrong. You should change your home page to about:home or some other site instead. The google.com/firefox page is no longer supported.

  • I have three user accounts on one computer. On only one account when I when I check Help - About fire fox only one user account says apply update and won't apply. The other two work fine.

    One of three user accounts on the same computer appears to not be updating to 8.0.1 correctly. One admin and one none admin user account says it is up-to-date. The other non-admin user account, under Help About Firefox says apply update, but won't.

    As long as you installed MS Office into its default location (the top level /Applications folder) it will be available to all user accounts on the Mac.
    As far as licensing is concerned you only have to enter the license code once, which you should do right after installing MS Office, in the same admin account you installed it from, by opening any one of the MS Office applications.  There is no additional licensing required for additional user accounts on the same Mac.
    Each user account is able to run the Office apps.  The only thing you will have to do is go through an initial setup screen in each user account (but this setup does NOT involve entering any additional license codes).
    You may have problems if you installed MS Office in a particular user account (i.e. NOT in the top level /Applications folder).

  • My iphone 4 is telling me I have to restore but when I plug in and connect to itunes, it freezes about 30-50 % through the process. Now I can't use my phone at all? I am waiting about 1-3 hours for this process to finish and nothing ever happens. HELP!!

    Put it into DFU mode - hold the sleep/wake button and home button until the screen goes black (ignoring the slide to turn off slider). When the screen goes black release the sleep/wake button but hold the home button. Continue holding the home button for 10 seconds, then release it. The screen should stay black. Plug it into iTunes and it should come up with this message "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. It must be restored before use", that's when it is successfully in DFU mode. Now press the restore button in iTunes and it should run smoothly :)

  • I updated my iMac to 10.7.3 and about an hour later the screen began to flicker with a gray line on the upper side, and it also flicker green and red small pixel lines all over the screen, mainly green.

    I updated my iMac to 10.7.3 and about an hour later the screen began to flicker with a gray line on the upper side, and it also flicker green and red small pixel lines all over the screen, mainly green. The computer froze with these pixels, so I shut it off and restarted it, and there were this green lines everywere. So I turned it off, and the next day I turned it on and it began to work just fine, but suddenly the same thing happened again, and when I restart the computer again there are these green and some red pixels everywere.
    I've read 10.7.3 is giving people many problems, but I never saw that it gave one like this. How can I fix this, or what will Apple do to fix this problem they caused me with their update.
    Thanks

    Contact Apple Service, iMac Service or Apple's Express Lane. Do note that if you have AppleCare's protection plan and you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you're eligible for onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine.
