I heard that Apple is developing a series of more apps to challenege Adobe, should be interesting to see as I really dislike Adobe.

Have you noticed any screen flicker with your LED screen when set to the lowest brightness setting? Do you know the manufacturer of the screen?

No flicker at all on my screen, I don't know the manufacturer's name.

Thanks. A friend of mine is considering getting a Macbook Pro. Is thinking about the 17in model but I'm trying to sway him to the 15in. I've got a Dell XPS M1330 with LED and love it. LED is much more vibrant than TFT.

I would have loved to at least tried the 17" model. There isn't an Apple store near me and the only models out in the PC stores where the 15" model which I have now, so didn't get a proper play. Besides, not that I would want to pay like $500 for 2" of screen but hey lol

If he is going to get one, I would wait till February-March time when they should be releasing their new line.

The screen does seem crisp but without comparison, I automatically think its pretty neat

Btw, I am actually starting to do something with my site now, starting with my Macbook Pro review... http://main.muffindcc.com/macbookpro-review

That's a good point. I always wait if I know new models are on the near horizon. However, he needs the computer for an important business meeting next week. I forget, does apple come with 30 day trial period?

Nice review by the way I'm going to be writing a review on my M1330 soon. I've got Ubuntu 64bit installed on both of my rigs and it is screaming fast.
