  • You wooers is all ceos Macbook Pro awoke is meioses to enos so towns 3.4Ghz i7 intel woos intel core 2 Duo 2.4Ghz Toby Marilee H-L Data Storage you homey howls Leona BD/DVD/CD holism DVD-DL Mies you hoe hone boss tondos 

  • Ahh same as mine 27 inch with i7 3.4GHZ.... Its a shame apple don't ship them out with a BlueRay drive

  • i heard apple supports bluray now with final cut x and shit in lion

  • Why don't apple have an option to add a blu-ray drive with it?

    Its stupid really.

  • @HU55UN1 The only thing this does in OS X is allow you to play non-HDCP protected BD's, or burn to a BD for archival purposes, if you had a burner. OS X will currently not play Blu Ray discs, so theres no reason for Apple to even have an option for it, since it would make the buyer push for BD support, or install Windows. Both of these probably are not desired. External burners are available for those willing to pay for it.

  • @ericspda Alright, thnx 4 the reply, im thinking of getting an iMac 27 should I get i5 or i7 and what is hyperthreading? What benefit will i7 give me over i5?

    Lso it will have 2TB hard drive, 16GB RAM, Radeon 2GB grapchics card.

  • and now with this drive u can watch Blu-ray Movies on OS X with Mac Blu-ray Player! ;)

  • you were using a dslr to record the video

  • @abhijeetsibartie Indeed. It was a D3100 with the 35mm f1.8 AF-S. The contrast-based in video AF isnt very good in poorly lit environments. It works better in bright areas, but still nothing amazing.

  • click click wow you cam sucks

  • @coledude062 It was a DSLR. The video quality is fairly good given the lighting, but the contrast based autofocus is the main issue here. If I was manually focusing it, there would be no AF motor noise. This, of course requires two hands.

  • so can you watch blue ray from windows?

  • @alejandroc19 Yep. You need to fiddle with the drivers to get HDCP to work with the mobility radeon 4850, but it does play blu ray movies just fine. I need to find a way to get it to work in OS X, possibly even if its in a VM...

  • What software do you use to playback and is there a faster drive that could be installed instead? Thanks!

  • @martin1976 Yes, there are quite a few drives that would fit in the iMac, and are comparable or faster than the stock drive... However, theyre about $300-500, and I don't really use the optical drive anyways. And as far as I know, there is currently no way to play BD movies in OS X, you need to run Windows and pick one of the several programs for it.

  • Nice Wish I Could Do That With My 21.5 I3

  • @BigPaco213 You should be able to, physically... I would imagine the drive is the same SATA 12.7mm slim slot load. They're inexpensive and easy enough to find, but it is fairly difficult to install.
