Hi,

I have some small questions regarding Macbook Pro:

1. The Display Surface of MBP with Glossy Screen is made of Glass or Plastic?
2. Does any of the Apple Remote work with any of the MB/MBP? Or some software/hardware pairing needs to be done between them using some code to use them together?
3. I am getting mine Online in Singapore, So want to know do they provide any Notebook Case/Sleeve free along with the purchase ?

Hi, cool! Here are some answers:

1-the surface you'll come into contact with is plastic, whether the screen is matte or glossy.

2-I don't think you have to pair a remote with your computer, but it's a very quick and simple process anyway, so it's no big deal. Edit because mduell beat me to the post: You DO have to pair a remote with the various remote-capable iPod docks, and that's probably what I was thinking about.

3- I know nothing about Singapore, but a lot of authorized resellers make up for having fixed prices by offering free goodies, so you can probably find one there that will offer a sleeve or case. Look around.
