Macbook Pro Trade-in Cancelled


Several days ago I wanted to trade-in my 4 months-old Macbook to a brand new Macbook Pro. The seller who happens to be a friend of mine even offered a trade-in facility and a cheap price (even some layaway). However, this struck me (click to enlarge):

Car

It’s an incident that involves my car and some motor bike and safe to say that I don’t have enough money for the trade-in (minor dent to my car, major dent to the other party). I’m very pissed of but however, I realized maybe this is just a warning to be less shopping-addict (I’m addicted to new and shiny gadgets! — alas, most of the time my wallet is screaming for mercy). Probably this is a warning to hold my self not to buy stuffs that’s not urgently required, in fact how much graphic power does a trading station need anyway?

In part, I also relieved actually to cancel the Trade-in because the rumors are swirling around that Mac might release a new model with Back-LED LCD instead of conventional LCD, meaning less power consumption and lighter weight. With Intel Core Pro line on the horizon, it’s also a wise decision to hold the purchase. For Noto, thanks for the offer, I might not need it now (don’t have enough money anyway — and I don’t like to be in debt), but I’ll surely buy future Mac stuffs from you (how about if we start with APP and LCD replacement? Heheh…)

Wow.. you really love ‘apple’ stuff.
What makes you very comfortable with it?

@Ricky: It must be the ease of use. Granted that it doesn’t run many trading software but still, it’s an easier system to maintain.

New MacBook Pro Out Now! get it one bro!

@Jauhari: I might not need it right now. It’s a tad bigger than my 13.3″ Macbook (the size that I don’t need right now). Probably if the new form factor iMac comes out, I might buy it.

My friend has an apple notebooks, but I wasn´t very comfortable with it at all. I´m a satisfied user of Fujitsu Siemens notebook and I´m sure my next notebook will also be Fujitsu Siemens;)
