Hello all, i'm new in this forum. I have finally take the decision of going mac. I visited the online Store in order to buy a Macbook (I preffer the 13.3" than 15.4"). But since the customing mac page loaded, i'm in a big doubt. My explanation: I am costumed to Windows Xp(1GB RAM, 2.6 Intel DC) and previos versions, and i hated the 'No response' messages, which took me to the famous alt+ctrl+del keys many many times. In particular, when i was gaming and watching a movie at the same time, or running 'eMule' and...nothing more, only eMule made my computer to have problems opening word documents/jpg images. And when I tried to upgrade Vista with 1 Gb... it was ridiculous. I could'nt open almost anything. That's basically why I moved to Mac: I've been told that Macs are much more efficient than Windows systems are. But I'm afraid that 4GB will be too much for me, because I'm not going to run any game nor use emule (maybe sometimes Torrent, or other programs which take less requirements, but not often). My intentions are to save at least 12-15 movies, lots of music, pics, and work programs. Also I noted that MacBook's haven't the 8600Gefore grapich card, (only 64Mb), so when I use graphing programs, the RAM memory will be spared (And also notice that 2,2 Ghz aren't 2.6 which I have in my Windows PC). My final arguments are that I usually have 30 web pages opened, with 2 or 3 videos, etc. and that I'm not thinking about buying a new mac next year... I wish having this one at least for 3 half or maybe 4 years.
So here i leave the question: Do you encourage me to buy the 4GB, instead of the basic 2 GB?, or is it an insanity to pay that money for 2 GB plus?
