3. I like to test for dead pixels before buying. Return and restocking is not an option I fancy going through.
It's $1988 here - http://store.apple.com/sg_edu_4911/b...ok?mco=MTE3MzM

Price...

Bought my 2.0 Unibody at Pacific City, IMM today... Got a Microsoft Arc Mouse (Citibank instalment plan promo), crystal case, keyboard protector, screen protector, sleeve and 2 years (after 2 years Applecare) add on service warranty FOC as a package. Pricewise $2088.... Ram upgrade to 4Gig DDR3 Kingston brand cost another $119.... Friendly and helpful guys there, gave me a tour on the Mac platform cause I never own a Mac before... gave me 10% off for the accessories as well.... Better service than their Marina Sq branch...

Heard they say Office is at $208 if u buy Mac from them, think Applecare at $300plus...

Before this purchase, did check around for any good deals from other shops... seems all have their good/bad points and extras... but to me, customer service is also important...

Another offer to look at... Was at Courts today, seems they give Microsoft Office with any Macbook purchase...

Cheers..
