Will Amazon carry the high-res (1680x1050) glossy / non-glossy option? I'm wondering if I should wait for Amazon to carry this or just bite the bullet and order from Apple. Does anybody know?

I suppose Amazon is offering it:Apple MacBook Pro Z0J62LL/A 15.4" Laptop (OLD VERSION)

Just a clarification, this is the first time that Apple (at least since its switch to intel in 2006), offers a Hi-Res option. So in turn Amazon has never offered Hi-Res because Apple never has either. But, if my memory serves me correctly, I did spot glossy (when antiglare screen were the default) MBPs on Amazon.

In the past Amazon has not carried the custom configuration models (which in the past has included the high-res option).

It's now 12/28/07. So what's the situation w/ leopard etc? Has any one ordered a macbook from Amazon since nov 25th 07?Amazon.com? What's the deal with not stating what OS comes with the Macbooks you are shipping out? It might be actually causing drop in Macbook sales for you guys. Get with it and state that 'yes they do come with Leopard now!' I'd rather purchase from Amazon (less scary return policy) but I might have to order from Macconnection.com as the price is the same (actually with them you don't have go thru the hassle of the rebate as their price reflects $100 discount) and their site clearly states that they do come with Leopard and iLife 08....

Yep, amazon only carries the generic versions. Dont think Bestbuy will do it either, I tried and they only carry the generic ones too. If you want 16gigs of ram you will have to order it from Apple.

I preordered the 16gb directly from Creative (because Amazon's wait time was much longer than Creative's) and mine shipped yesterday.I would think that Creative is in the process of shipping their large orders as well, if they haven't already and hopefully Amazon will have them soon.

I send the Mac with OSX Mavericks. Amazon does not let Sellers Update Specifications on All Amazon Listings. I cannot speak for Other Sellers. The Finest Macbooks -

I got mine on Black Friday. I saw the price and my eyes almost popped out of my head. I couldn't order it fast enough! Keep an eye out, you never know when the price might drop again. Even at this price it's still cheaper than any other reseller I've seen or even the Apple Store is. I live in Texas and I have no sales tax when purchasing from Amazon which is a added plus!

Just recieved ours a week ago and it has a matte screen. I totally forgot that it never asked for my preference when I was ordering! So I think you are right, Amazon doesn't offer the glossy.I personally like the matte better, less annoying reflection, though I've heard the glossy screens have better color, personal preference.

2880x1800, I believe. Haven't tried that myself; use 1920x1200. Your best move would be to visit an Apple Store, if possible, to actually view the different resolutions and decide whether it works for you.

I believe that stores other than the Apple stores won't have them for a while. I went to BestBuy and they told me they didnt think they would have them til December, which might explain why Amazon is on preorder

I have tried contacting Amazon to find out when the iMacs with Leopard be available and no one seems to know... does anyone know when it will be?

You can download from the Amazon Apps store, but the resolution will be too poor to be of value. This is not a "retina" display and the angle of viewing is extremely critical.

Unfortunately, you can only purchase the versions they sell online. I called Amazon.com Reps and confirmed they don't customized Macbook Pros.

I'm a pro photographer. This is a bit of anecdotal apples and oranges, but I just returned a glossy 17" MBPro because the screen brightness was obviously very uneven. While in the store I saw a matte 15" MBPro that looked very uniform in brightness. And I'm not talking about glare or varying angle of view here. My recommendation: look at the 15" matte in person and watch out for the glossy, at least in 17". Hope this helps.

I talked to support, they said '06. PC Connection has it with '08 and glossy if you want. Guess I may go shopping over there. Apple did once have an up to date program for iLife like they do now for Leopoard, but not anymore.

Hi Enrique,The Glossy Screen is a build-to-order option from Apple, and is not offered on the retailer model of the MacBook Pro. If you're not satisfied with a matte screen, you will have to purchase from Apple directly. I was in the same situation, and ended up getting the glossy screen from Apple after I compared the two side-by-side.

It seems like Amazon received a small initial shipment and those who got in early had theirs shipped. Based on the availability from the Apple online store, it might be a month or more before Amazon may get another shipment of MBPsI checked JR.com and they have them in stock. YMMV thoughhttp://www.jr.com/apple/pe/APP_MC975LL_SL_A/
