    Can Apple store price matching?? Because of colour preferences.

        • Techie4066 on 20/09/2022 - 21:25

          And going the route of taking TCN cards to JB to buying Apple cards makes this the best possible price anywhere. You can add as many as needed to your Apple wallet (or use them for normal Edu pricing in-store).

          The best possible price across the board will be during a 15% off TCN cards sale.

          • tc423 on 20/09/2022 - 21:47

              @tc423: Yes. Just swipe it at the terminal with the PIN scratched and treat it like any other card. Don't tell the cashier it's a "gift" card because that might throw them off. It's allowed.

                @Techie4066: Got ya. Well it may still be worth getting TCN cards and using them to buy Apple cards. I do have a trade in though so I am not sure if that will cause any issues down the line…

        nice! im really stuck deciding between this macbook m1 VS this intel $1040 laptop below
        https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/724496

        macbook will be the better quality machine hands down, my only concern is that i cannot install cracked microsoft office and video editing software on the mac m1. also slightly smaller screen at 13.3

        the intel obviously bigger screen and has windows (im used to windows), those are the only 2 positives.

        • Snacky on 20/09/2022 - 22:24

          M1 is more powerful and has more cores than the windows laptop you’ve linked, but then again if you need a bigger screen and more ram I’d say go for the windows.

          I haven’t had any issues with my M1 Air, good battery and ram management even with 8gb. The screen size just grew onto me and much more portable.

          • striker5950 on 21/09/2022 - 18:34

            @Snacky: first world problems, yeh i mean bigger screen is ideal, but than i read about screen ghosting issues on the intel by some people when subtitles are displayed, and some say no there is no issues, than i read about the fanless m1, for years i dreamt of a fanless powerful laptop now it exists, if the macbook could install windows with bootcamp like the old intel macs, it would make this decision 10 times easier.. im also sure the macbook would outlast the intel. still cant decide smh
            im wondering how much work i can get done on the macbook if i cant installed cracked software on it

      AFAIK, for customized RAM, you have to order from Apple Store.

  • [Deactivated] on 20/09/2022 - 22:08

    How do these compare to new chips used in PC laptops?

    • Snacky on 20/09/2022 - 22:22
      +1

      Pretty well actually, much more power efficient causing less heat and performs on par with i7 and i5s

    • littlesoldier on 20/09/2022 - 22:45
      +3

      CPU benchmark M1/M2 are very good in compare to chips in standard PC laptops

      But user experience cannot be compared given M1/M2 Mac cannot install Microsoft Windows
      (it might be able to install Windows 10/11 on ARM and run via Parallels Desktop, but there's no license copy atm)

      So, you have to stick with MacOS, which is great for office use, web browsing, programming, video editing etc.

      But for gamers, games available on MacOS are so much less compare to Windows

      Also, if you have any specific software to use, make sure they have a MacOS version otherwise they could not be run

  • Dan83 on 20/09/2022 - 22:45

    Nice. I just started up my new Macbook Air M1 that arrived today which I bought with the student discount. I presume the discount would be much the same.

  • datafellows on 20/09/2022 - 22:54

    Bought one for daughter yesterday for $1717 from Amazon, they dropped to $1709 as well. It should have been delivered today, if not shipped by morning I'm going to cancel and reorder.

    If you buy from Amazon don't forget Cashrewards, 1.5%.

  • Murpha on 20/09/2022 - 23:05

    For use as a development machine, is 8GB RAM really enough, particularly when shared with GPU? I mean my phone as 50% more RAM…

    • littlesoldier on 20/09/2022 - 23:13

      depends on what type of programmings and which IDE
      Based on my exp using M1 Mac mini (8GB ram / 256GB storage)
      running xcode is fine, visual studio code is fine (eg. for React, Node JS etc)
      visual studio on Mac will occasionally having out of ram issue
      and similar experience with Android Studio

    • Fybre on 20/09/2022 - 23:44

      I'm working on a 2019 macbook pro with 8gig. It struggles occasionally when running android/ios simulators from Android Studio. Visual Studio is ok, but VS on windows really is nicer. If you have to bring up parallels it starts to strain if you're trying to do other stuff. Parallels is definitely superior to fusion though.

    • Kabal on 21/09/2022 - 18:22

      If you need to run docker, probably not.

      If you are doing general web dev or normal/basic native app development … you can make do.

      Ideally you would have more.

    I bought one of the M1 MacBook Airs last year and the screen cracked without any impact a year later. Apple store declined to acknowledge the issue even though it seems to be widespread. Currently pursuing a case via ACCC.
    There are numerous similar complaints online both in Apple forums and other forums where users have been complaining about cracked displays (links given below) without any impact. There is also a class action suit filed in USA for this issue. I really hope this issue is fixed in M2s.

    • littlesoldier on 21/09/2022 - 11:45

      Unfortunately no
      the marketing promo explicitly says it Excludes customised to Order
      so only those standard models are on discount

      Better to get from AOC store if you want to add memory / storage

      M2 256gb is way slower than m2 512gb as Apple has decided to use a single slot of SSD , this issue wasn’t happening in M1 MBA 256gb

      https://www.macrumors.com/2022/06/27/m2-macbook-pro-256gb-ss…

      So either get M1 256gb or M2 512gb

        to add to that point, yes he is right 512gb and above, and if you are buying the 512gb ask your self if its worth paying 700 dollars extra for %10 faster cpu. most reviews say to buy the m1
