Which Macbook? New user here and need advice, Hello everybody.
|
Looking at my first Macbook coming from a PC background so I need some advice. This is what I'm looking at used:
1)Macbook base model 2.0Ghz,80gb HDD, 3gb RAM, new condition, and I mean spotless, includes everything but the box. Price is $500
2)Macbook 2.4Ghz, 160gb HDD, 2gb RAM, bought in September '08 and comes with a Best Buy 2 year warranty, box and everything included. $800.
I like the specs on the 2.4Ghz Macbook but is it worth $300 more? I am on a tight budget but can swing the $300 if the system is a lot faster. Sorry I know nothing about speed and Macbooks. Looking further at specs the 2.4Ghz has the newer Intel GMA X3100 card vs the Intel GMA 950, again not sure if it makes a difference or not. Also the 2.4Ghz has the 800Mhz bus vs the 677Mhz bus.
