[QUOTE="danielr1990, post: 1413711, member: 256579"] I actually read recently something about the processor's higher frequency 2.9 vs 2.0 is not nearly as affective on actual speed compared for example to 8GB of ram vs 4 GB. Meaning a 2.0 with 8GB would be running much faster that a 2.9 with 4GB. What's your take on this. Also, thanks for clearing up the terminology. I am not a big fan of huge storage space on the computer. You can get a 2TB external for what you used to pay for a 200GB just a few years ago. Do you really need direct access at all times to more than 256 GB? If yes, than stick to HDD. Also, considering upgrade to 256 Flash is like $400 I believe, you might as well already get the MB Retina =] [/QUOTE]
