[QUOTE="newmacbrodude, post: 1002816, member: 144646"] :D Just got my new MacBook! The latest build, 6,1. The prettiest thing I've seen(besides my fiance). I've been a windows user/pc user for years. This is my first MAC. I am in love with it. Runs so fast(4GB of RAM). Just loving everything. I have a few questions though if the more experienced dont mind answering. 1) Can I as a user upgrade the RAM one day? Im sure I'll need a boost to 6GB or 8gb(unofficially supported) one day. Is it easy to do? I have a 320GB HD, I have about 200GB left :) wont need a new HD in a year or so I think. I heard Crucial had good prices, but when I looked I only saw 2gb versions, I thought the MacBook stacked 1gb on top of each other. 2) I purchased a MiniDisplayPort to HDMI for TV output. I can't have sound through the HDMI?(Im on 10.6.2) No way to enable it? I suppose I'll have to use the optical out through the headphone jack. 3) Is AppleCare worth the $250. I have my one year until Feb 2011, should I purchase applcare in Jan 2011? 4) How to clean it? Im not a messy person, so I dont imagine many scrathes r stains on it, but I know I'll put smudges on it. I purchased a ZAGG shield, just like I did for my iPhone. Thanks all, Im happy Im now a MAC person, I'll never go back to PC/WINDDOWS again! Have a great day all [/QUOTE]
