[QUOTE="Playwithbadgers, post: 538517, member: 42646"] Hello everyone. I've lurked around on these forums for awhile now, and since I'm about to purchase my first mac product, I thought I'd ask the people that know best. Now as much as I'm sure everyone loves to see the "macbook vs. macbook pro" threads, mine is a little different, and possibly even kind of a stupid question. I'm a musician and really want to get into recording audio, as well as some video on the side. Now as far as I know, if I opted for say the black macbook, threw 2 gigs of ram on there, it would be about as fast as the base macbook pro, correct? Or as far as audio recording goes, is there a significant increase in speed or efficiency? I really fell in love with the pro originally, but I'm really trying to decide if I can justify shelling out a few hundred more unless it's going to help improve productivity in those areas. As far as gaming goes, it's not an enormous concern, but at the same time I wouldn't mind throwing in halo or kotor every now and again. I apologize for such a long winded post, I've just been reading up for quite some time and want to make sure I make the right choice. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
