so i have decided to be a newbie and post pics of my comp and the roomies as well. i just bought this about a week ago and must say the macbook pro is a fun little toy. i also have to admit i have been lurking and reading different reviews prior to purchasing the macbook pro as i am an avid gamer. i should restate that; i am an avid gamer who doesnt need the 1900x1200 res to enjoy a game. i would rather play with lower res and more details. the pro does this with flying colors. i left the x1600 all stock. anywho enough babbling on to the pics...hope u enjoy...sorry we are college folk and the house/desk is a bit messy.

In the mac store and at home on my iMac
the 24" is great, but you just bought a macbook pro, do you really need it.

I wish I could slap sense into you, but I am pretty sure I will be picking one up for a Christmas present to myself this year. :batman:

I bought my MBP RAM from Crucial....the best on the market IMO. I ran memtest and everything checked out fine....it's been perfect since I got the machine about 2 months ago

for sure i just sent the ram back to newegg today so they should have it by thursday and i think i might have them change the order and throw on some crucial instead...thank you. hope it works.
