How bright is the display and difference between MacBook Pro

I have not decided which MacBook/Pro I will buy. An issue is the display. The display of my old 500Mhz G3 ibook looks quite dim compared to external displays.
Usual you find the specs for the brightness (eg 300cd/m2) and contrast ratio's (1:800) in the technical data sheets. However, I couln't find this information for the MacBook or MacBook Pro. Does anyone know this values and how do they compare to iMac or the Apple Display (I still have the feeling that external displays are much brighter).
My second question is, how compares the MaBook display to the MacBook Pro (glossy), besides the different size. I will definite go for a Pro in case the display of the Pro is much better.
Many thanks
ibook G3, 500Mhz, 640MByte Ram   Mac OS X (10.4)

Hello Friends,
Here are some questions I have pls reply back with complete description and url if any ..
1)How Did you tune Query, Use EXPLAIN PLAN to see exactly where it is spending its time, and address those areas.
See the forum FAQ
SQL and PL/SQL FAQ
"3. How to improve the performance of my query?"
2)What approach you take to tune query? Do you use Hints?Hints can help.
Even more helpful is writing the SQL efficiently (avoiding multiple scans of the same table, filtering early, using built-in rather than user-defined functions, ...), creating and using indexes, and, for large tables, partitioning.
Table design can have a big impact on performace.
Look for ways to do part of what you need before the query. This includes denormalizing (when appropriate), the kind of pre-digesting that often takes place in data warehouses, function-based indexes, and, starting in Oracle 11, virtual columns.
3)Where did you tune the query and what are the issue with query?Either this question is a vague summary of the entire thread, or I don't understand it. Can you re-phrase this part?
4)What is difference between RBO and CBO? where u use RBO and CBO.Basically, use RBO if you have Oracle 7 or earlier.

    No difference other than one is for the Russian market. Specs on both are the same, standard Apple Store issue versions.
    Of course the screen choice of anti-glare, glossy, high res or low res is not included.
    The default is likely the cheap glossy and low res.

  • Whats's the difference between MacBook Pro 13 and 13.3 ?

    This, Whats's the difference between MacBook Pro 13 and 13.3 ?

    Firstly, you are not in MacBook Pro forum, so you need to get your bearings.
    2nd check the specs page
    http://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro
    Then Bing/Google for reviews, Ars is always good but dozens have done one.
    2011 brings Intel Sandy Bridge processor boards, Thunderbolt, SATA3 (6G) along with options for SSD and much more RAM (can save buying RAM and doing the upgrade yourself)

  • What is the difference between MacBook pro 2011 and 2012

    What is the difference between MacBook pro 2011 and 2012

    understanding that at the time of the question, there has not been any Macbook Pro 2012, now it is later and there is.
    The difference is:
    -CPU being used (2011 models: Sandy Bridge, 2012 models: Ivy Bridge)
    -Graphics (2011: intel 3000 + on 15"/17" ATI, 2012: intel 4000 + on 5"/17" nvidia Geforce 650M)
    -USB (2011: USB2.0 only, 2012: USB3.0)
    -Bluetooth (2011. 2.1 + EDR, 2012: 4.0)
    Ivy Bridge CPUs are smaller and are a little bit more energy-efficient.
    Other than that, currently the devices are not much different in respect to performance (Apple's graphics driver performance is known to increase during upgrades, though, so the performance gap may widen up)

  • What are the differences between MacBook Pro 2008 and MacBook Pro 2012?

    AirPlay Mirror in OS X Mountain Lion, allows the user to connect a MacBook Pro to a TV using Apple TV, but only if the MacBook Pro is early 2011 or newer. My MacBook Pro is 2008, 2.5 GHz Core 2 Duo with 4GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM. What am I missing that would allow me to use AirPlay Mirror, and is it possible for me to upgrade my MBP to early 2011 specs?

    About four years of hardware change. You csnnot upgrade your hardware. You can simply buy a new computer or find an alternative:
    About AirPlay and Airplay Mirroring
    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). For non-qualifying Macs you can try using Air Parrot.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    All the computers are Mid 2012, and the difference between the first two are that one is designed for India and the other for other countries. They are the same computer but for different markets.
    The third one is the high-end 13-inch MacBook Pro, that has got 8 GB of RAM and a 750 GB hard disk. Also, it has got a better processor. This is the one with the best hardware of all the three you mentioned, so if you want more performance, consider this Mac

    If you look at the table which is output of the given query , there is column called "STATE_ID" It shows the current state ie open or closed or all report.
    The column 'PREVIOUS_STATE' shows the state before the current state. .In the table in 2nd row in previous_state column there is state_id = 1 (open)which is the state before 'all report state'
