- Macbook Pro 2.4 GHz, 160 GB at 7200rpms 4GB ram...iPhone 3G
A few questions:
Is the HD screen worth the upgrade of 100+ dollars on the 17" inch MBP? Or is the normal screen fine? Verses the LED backlights...
Now the 15" inch also offers the 160 GB hd at 7200 rpms, and before I was sent on the 17" because of this feature but now it's in both, so If i were to get the 15" it lowers the cost by like 200-300 dollars.
Has anyone noticed the 17" to be a pain to carry around with them because of size or weight?
I'm was really set on getting the 17", but since the upgrades I'm not sure, if it's worth the extra money.
This computer will mostly be used for video editing, and some graphics, some gamming so the Hard drive upgrade was key, at 7200rpm, and now that it's 160 instead of 100 is even better. Same withe the Video card upgrade.
Screen real-estate is important but I also have a 19" wide external monitor for that.
So the question is the 15" or the 17".. ( both at 2.4GHz by the way 2 GB ram, 160 at 7200rpms)
