You finally got a MacBook?
Yep. Simply for the reason I got this MacBook for a cheaper price than what a DLHR PowerBok would cost me!
Got a tip for us?

interesting its using 1333 ram. My 2012 air is using 1600 ram and is actually older then the new imac. Very strange they would use that memory instead of the faster version. Maybe because the airs is soldered on? I was considering an imac and that is a bit disappointing.
So you sold your ibook? Better than ibook?
I haven't had an iBook for about 2 years now. So yeah the MacBook is just not even in the same league in terms of performance as the iBook.
How did you get a mid-2010 MBP to run 16GB of RAM...?
Max is only 8GB...
At the time 8 gb sticks were not widely available. What apple says is the max ram and what it actually is, is not always correct. If you read my link from everymac.com they test max ram on different systems

you can see if you read the doc carefully its actually 16gb. its a little tricky because you have to use certain ram speed. you cant use faster ram like 1333 and let it downclock like some systems. If you do your mac wont boot it will just beep at you. OWC sells the 16gb kit with the correct speed for 2010 macbook pros. You also have to be using the latest version of lion or any version of mountain lion.
Windows 7 in boot camp is also able to take advantage of all 16gb of the ram.
Not strange at all. Probably the guy replaced / upgraded the RAM with aftermarket 1333 MHz sticks.
yea your right. i looked at another late 2012 imac posting and it was 1600. so he must have used his old memory. my bad. im actually happy about that because ive been pondering getting a 2012 imac.

dam. sorry to hear that.
The new iMac....It flies..3TB Fusion Drive in addition to the shot.
Nice machine! What will you be using it for?
Was too lazy to edit out the Serial Number, so I just cut that half off, not like there was anything useful there anyway.
I hope to replace my HD with Micron's new $600 M500 960GB SSD - WHENEVER that decides to come out...
