The box as it arrived.


They weren't kidding when they said they reduced the size of the packaging.


Big surprise... well thought out packaging.


She's pretty!


And oh so shiny


Comparison to the Plastic Fantastic..

I am still here rocking the plastic fantastic, although I do have enough money sitting around for the MBP. Hmmm, tuition or MBP?

Stay away from forums if you are having trouble dealing with GAS, whether it be gear or computers. The constant posting of new notebooks on MacRumors tempts me to upgrade my current MBP when I know that I have no need for an update.

I'll be selling the plastic fantastic once I'm done transferring everything and making sure this one's set up exactly the way I like it.

You're going to be inundated with requests for pictures in all types of lighting and angles. Everyone is going to make you post your screen model. You know, the usual MacRumors deal.

Exactly why I haven't posted it yet...

I'm still amazed by this thing, but I'm not going to share it with a bunch of nerds yet... just you nerds.

Good idea. Enjoy it for a few days before posting it. One guy made a thread about his new MBP and people harassed him for pictures from every angle imaginable. It was a humorous read.
