@ Spooner: That is the newest one. The first 2012 model is expected to hit sometime in April - May.
But it booted up and loaded a bunch of benchmarking apps. To my thinking if its a fresh boot it would be 10.
I am still in two minds on the SSD, tempted to just go fuck it and get a 256gb from Amazon for £320 but worrying about space, especially if I put on Bootcamp for those pesky windows only apps/games. The 512gb goes for £626 so it may be worth saving up and getting it instead. Either way I want one of those hardrive docks things in which I will put the 750 that comes with the Macbook & the one in my current laptop.

Kharrak, it would be safe to just totally disregard this^ post. :D

Space is always an issue when it comes to SSD. Also remember that SSD's have a limited lifespan. They can only do so many read / write cycles before they die. But it would probably last you long enough before it does die.

But I mean my Macbook only has a 250GB HDD and I manage fine. Obviously I don't store a lot of big stuff on it, but I have a external drive for that.

Thats my line of thinking also. Pick up the 256gb SSD & a 3tb Timecapsule. Hook my existing externals (a 1tb for data & 2 tb for my ripped dvds as well as the 750 the SSD will replace) to the timecapsule via high speed usb hub. Keeping all my media files and the like on the externals and only loading the apps onto the 250gb I should manage just fine.

Yip, then you will be fine!

Disregarded! ...for better or for worse ;p

Having been "on the internet" for one and a half decades now, I've witnessed the slow-but-steady rise of the female presence online. It's a bizarre thing to witness... mostly due to how the other males react :P
 
Right, so Wenzdayz is indeed female, based on responses ;)

Unless people are just all in on one of those insider jokes :|

But whatever! I'll just run with it! God knows I've run with worse things, and run from even worse. Anyhow, it's great to (slowly) get to know at least a small portion of the community!

/hands TK noob the TK Noob torch

welcome Kharrak
 
Haaaaaaaaaaai Oom Grim! How goes it?

I will have to bribe the techie to come in to the office and block a few ppl's computers from certain sites. The office idiot officially managed to get his pc infected. I just klapped him when he admitted to turning the antivirus off.

:DDid you really klap him... Remind me to never get on your bad side"whistling:

I dunno if you saw earlier but I came across this on Amazon...

Apple MacBook Pro 15 inch Laptop (Quad-Core i7 2.4GHz RAM 4GB, HDD 750GB, HD Graphics, Radeon HD 6770M SD) - The Model I was originally after for £1592

and this

Apple Macbook Pro 15-inch i7 2.5GHz, 4GB RAM, 750GB (7200RPM)Hi-Res Anti Glare HD LAPTOP - the exact same model except with the high end 2.5ghz L3 8mb cache cpu and the high res anti-glare coated screen for £1599.

Those items if ordered through built to order from Apple would set me back £310.
