Need a new laptop and looking to switch to Mac. I can buy a new unopened 2009 Macbook Pro 15.4" (MC118LL) for $1300, or should I get the latest 13" Macbook Pro ($1200)? Which would you choose and why? Specs below:
2009 Macbook Pro 15.4"
2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB Memory
250GB 5400 rpm hard drive
NVIDIA 9400M graphics w/256MB
15.4" screen
73-watt-hour lithium-polymer battery (up to 7??? hours battery time)
Latest 2010 Macbook Pro 13"
2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB Memory
250GB 5400 rpm hard drive
NVIDIA 320M graphics w/256MB
13" screen
63.5-watt-hour lithium-polymer battery (up to 10 hours battery time)
Can't decide if I should get the latest and greatest 13" or go with a good deal on a year old (unopened-new) 15.4" (only $100 more).
Thanks for any recommendations...
