bought mine Saturday, came with old leopard (but i bought snow leopard)best macbook pro ever. snow leopard really makes it come alive (with speed)my adobe and pro apps load up with the greatest of ease (it's scary how fast they run now), heck, even firefox doesn't slow down the system anymore! (though it does take it's time)and now you can add more than 10 items to you dock (when dragging a folder down), soo awesome!

I'd like to know if amazon's mac book pro will come with snow leopard too. It's already out on apple's website.

Bought mine at Best Buy two weeks ago and it also had Snow Leopard. Updated all software and contacted apple for the free upgrade that they all are eligible for. They sent me a code a day later and was able to download off the app store in 3 hrs and another half to install. It's up and running now with Lion.A different keyboard would be nice but its a great machine, why wait?

I have yet to get it to work on my MacBook Pro but some of that may be my own error. Apple just sent out an OS upgrade called OS X which is listed on the label of the Zoombinis box. Before this upgrade when I would put the disc in the drive it would show up on Finder with the circle and slash of something now allowed or not supported by the OS. Now I get the symbols clearly but still haven't managed to get it to run. Like I said, that may be my fault, I'm still learning how to use Mac rather than PC.

You (and I) might consider buying the laptop from Apple who has it in stock and buying the warranty and other accessories here. I don't know why amazon lists this if they never have it in stock and there isn't a reliable ship date estimate.

Lots of rumors in last day or two about the next refresh of Macbook Pro. As per the rumor mill:1. MBP will have a complete redesign with SSD (Solid State Drive) similar to the current Macbook Air.2. No optical drive3. Will have Intel Light Peak to connect peripherals4. More reliable as no moving parts, faster due to SSD instead of Hard disks, more efficient power consumption and so on.Boy, I never knew Mac world is whole new dimension away from Windows world. Never seen such buzz about a Windows model :) Seriously, I hope these rumors don't belong in the tinfoil hat territory.If any of these rumors is true, what about the price? Will Uncle Jobs jack up the prices? Lots of rumors in last day or two about the next refresh of Macbook Pro. As per the rumor mill:1.

download all the updates from the website first. then youll need to buy snow leopard from apple. if im not mistaken you can now download this update (for a fee) from their website. If not, order the disk directly from APPLE. DO NOT ORDER FROME HERE.

Don't get me wrong I think macbooks are a great computer and I own an early 2008 model. However, while these new aluminum look really nice and have new features such as trackpad, graphics card, etc....the price has gone up 20% over earlier 2008 macbooks with the same processor speed(checkout macworld's benchmarks). This is revision 1 of these new macbooks....thus you are going to pay top dollar for something that has a few known bugs already(screen, trackpad). Like anything else, you will get more bang for your buck if you wait until early next year when revision 2 comes out at cheaper price points. I love the macbooks but can't recommend this one to ppl based on value for your money. Not to mention apple's new improved snow leopard OS will be coming out mid next year too.

If you take the first generation MacBook Air to the apple store, they can reset it back to its factory settings for a fee. The original MacBook Air comes with snow leopard so if you do not upgrade the software, you will be left with the old operating system (OS) that you want. This would be the only way to go about it being that apple only sells its newest products. Snow leopard is no longer available for download from the App Store. However, this does not necessarily mean that snow leopard is no longer obtainable. The pirate bay and other sources may have the software available for download for any apple computer.

I have Mavericks OS 10.9.4 and it works fine. I don't know how far back it goes. The box it came in was destroyed in our earthquake so I don't have the Mac specs handy, but I would guess it might go back as far as Snow Leopard, maybe earlier, but that is just a guess. Is it not supplied with the sales specs for the product? Sorry, I don't have more info handy at this time. I do have to say that I have moved on to Rosetta Stone. They have a terrific sale (50% and I bought the full program Levels I-V for about $250. Don't know if it's still on, but I received it just before the quake. Now that Our house is about restored, I'm getting ready to load it up.

I TOO am looking for version B1, not only on amazon but everywhere online. I havent found any site that actually posts the version they are selling. This is crucial for me since I was informed that ONLY version B1 will work with my mac. If you (or anyone) finds a place that posts the availabilty of v. B1, pleease let me know.

I bought this item for my MacBook Pro with Retina display which is 2012 late model. A1278 is unibody without retina that is different model to my Mac, based my understanding. What I remember was the Duzign Nobility Case has a description for different model of Mac. You should chose the one that is for unibody but not for retina. Hope this can help you. Good luck!

This Macbook Pro is operating on Mavericks, not the latest system software, Yosemite. It has, however been upgraded with all software updates available for Mavericks.

My order status is still "pre-order." Anyone knows when it will ship? My laptop is broken so I'm counting on this Macbook air.

I placed mine on May 8th, but haven't seen mine ship yet. Could anyone whose MacBook Pro 17" has shipped please let us know when you ordered it?

This Macbook has worked well for me, with no issues to speak of. I am running Snow Leopard, so I cannot answer how the newest software will work.

You are welcome! My advice: buy $29 disk of Snow Leopard OSX 10.6, and go online and keep upgrading the system software to 10.6.8. Stop there. OS 10.6.8 is the most stable OS Apple ever created. Mavericks and Yosemite are awful. MB404LL/A loves OS 10.6.8.

No clue but the base MacBook Pro model isn't being sold by Amazon.com anymore, its being sold by another store through Amazon. So not rebate on this model right now. I'm so mad! I left for work at 4 and it had the rebate, I come home and nothing!
