Ryan's Tiny Titan moment was hilarious.

I'm so glad to have the Brodeo back ;_;

Tina is an excellent addition, Matt seems to fill the hole Sean Malloy left as well. Keep up the good work dudes.

The black MacBooks are higher spec, it's more than just a premium color option, or was, they're gone now.

(And they've cut the firewire from the standard MacBook, what the fuck Jobs?)

Larger HD != Higher specs. People were paying for colour.

Okay, after going through the whole thing, I think Chuff and Max Chill ammount to about 75% of a single Shawn Elliott, but the whole crew works well together with Ryan hosting. I think they've found a decent stride, and I now fully give this podcast my blessing.

Also, Ryan's whiny nerd voice making fun of the people at the Blizzard Q&A was great.

It had a 2.2GHz processor, as appose to the 2.0GHz in the white model, and had an optional 2GB RAM, 1GB RAM was the cap on the white model.
Double RAM is far from a color option.

There was a matching white model with the same processor spec, and every single MacBook has 2 RAM slots. I'm not sure if they eventually differentiated the black one from the better of the two white ones, but at launch it worked out you were paying something like $50 or $100 for the color.

EDIT: At launch, it appears it was $150 extra for the black after configuring a white MacBook to it's exact specs. After the refresh, that premium was shortened to $50.

And on topic, this podcast was GREAT. Glad to see Robert is back, keep this group together!

Maybe when they first launched they were the same, but all I know is in the UK the black MacBook had higher specs and higher optional specs then the white one. It was not just a different color.

But on-topic, as you say.

I enjoyed the podcast, much better then last week, I look forward to it.

Just a relaxing podcast to be entertained by.
The intro music is a nursery rhyme ended by a fart sound and some highlights

In Starcraft, you either build a Scout because you are fooling around, or you are being bad mannered to your opponent that you have so thoroughly dominated that you can afford to build expensive useless units and send them to their deaths.

When the Black Macbook was first introduced, there was no difference except colour. It was after criticism that they gave it a larger hard drive.

Really enjoyed the podcast. I loved how it still had the classic GFW style of mixing games and random off topic shit all together and just going with the flow. Yea sure it will never be the same as it used to be but sticking to that formula is what most of the fans would want IMO.

I am very LLTP to this podcast, I am an idiot I know.

One question: Is the Megamen lover in this episode? I can't stand his voice.

Ryan Scott? He's the host. Don't hate on Ryan because of his voice, hate on him because of his women preferences! :lol

I made a fool of myself at the gym today while listening to this podcast. The Tiny Titans bit caused me to burst out laughing.
