I thought I'd open up this thread because I am so lost with this new machine. Must say I was not impressed that they didn't give me a bag with it. They tried stinging me for one but I have many bags and I can just buy some Styrofoam and make one myself. Also they didn't give me a mouse with it and that didn't impress me either. I thought it was quite scummy, in fact. Anyway is there some way you can make the screen full? There doesn't seem to be any tab for it and I have been dragging it to make it larger. Then there is the problem that the menu bar down the bottom gets in the way when I do that. I am sure there is some way to fix it. I will see my son next week and he knows some things, till then I just need to get any advice I can.

Why would they give you a mouse w/ a laptop? What do you mean "make the screen full"? What type of computer are you migrating from? -Dan.

I think you just lucked out with that particular computer. I'm on my third laptop and I've never been given a bag or a mouse. Or any other accessory.

They don't give bags or mice with every laptop anymore on the consumer side. If you order is for a business they may throw that in.

Sorry you're not happy with your mac book :(. I'm an apple fan and have a macbook pro. I never got anything with it either except the charger and remote control. I have purchased laptops in the past but never really got a bag or any other accessories. Sometimes some stores offer promotions like that - but regular purchases, I don't think bags are included.

I am happy with it, just thought they could've thrown in a mouse and a case, I mean really! How much do they cost in comparison? It's the big thing to do. Anyway I got a Crumpler case and it's cool because then I can just put my laptop in my backpack and no one knows I have it. When I open it it covers the insignia and if I am in the street or somewhere getting eyed off it doesn't seem like it's such an expensive thing. Crumpler make great bags and they are true blue Aussie products made in one of the suburbs in Melb. I like buying Aussie. Aussies have great things and it is good to support our economy seeing we always get ignored in the world because there are so few of us.
