A Macbook is plenty for it to be your only computer on the go. It's small enough for über portability as well, and you'll save a bit of scratch for ramen.

Don't spill any ramen broth on it though.

Screen size? In my dorm (office) I have a 22" widescreen LCD I connect it to. When out and about the 13" widescreen is perfect.

Performance? You're in college. Play games after you graduate or get a PS3/Xbox whatever.

I would go for the MacBook. Unless you are playing games (and don't have a desktop to play it on) and/or going into photography or graphics art/design as a major, then you don't need a MacBook Pro.

And you don't have to worry about the refurbished part.
