[QUOTE="casper69, post: 996785, member: 125408"] wirelessmacuser i bought the same model but with a 3.06 cpu and glossy screen back in October and its been running smooth. i have it running FCP Motion 4 and the rest and it works fine (except the issue of motion 4 closing unexpected but as long as i've saved then no worries) all other programs work fine no unexpected closing nothing. regarding the anti glare and the glossy - glossy is best for video, movies and photo editing as like above its move shape and colour stands out, if your using the mac generaly with work and will be outside with it the get the anti glare.... to be honest i dont notice reflextions from the screen at all even when im outside...ok if i get some reflextion i just move the screen and no worries. and regarding the heat issue, yeah the Mac gets hot but i havent had any lose parts due to it and the machine has been running for hours on Motion 4. if you think it will be an issue work near a window or purchase a fan or one of the stands that generates the heat away from the mac hope this helps :-) [/QUOTE]
