Hello I need help deciding on a notebook, I have did months of research and have been ready to buy a couple of times but financal and life issues got in the way
but anyways I was wanting help deciding on a notebook.
Heres what I want out of the machine, it will be a desktop replacement. I will use it for college,work,home media,games, and life. So it needs to have good specs. I know on the current Macbook Pro I cant change the video card. But can I change other parts, HDD, ect? Also how does the Pro do with games, say for example could it run Assasssin's Creed, Mass Effect, or dare I say Crysis? And if it does how well. And I know you have to run them with bootcamp. But say a game requires windows Vista, iam I stuck since bootcamp only does XP, or does bootcamp run Vista too?
Also is there any way I can record TV on the Pro, and if so would it be in HD?
Or could I install a TV tuner in it?
And last but not least how does a Pro stack up against a Sony VAIO say there FW or AR models, now I know this is a Mac board but please give me a honest anwser. Or any other notebook, but if I got a PC then I would want a blue ray drive.
Sorry for another question but is there any rumor to Apple allowing us to upgrade the "new macbook Pro" like being able to install a new video card yourself, instead of it being stuck on the motherboard! Also is apple going to a Blue-Ray support soon?
Any anwsers to this questions would be appericated thanks!
