[QUOTE="RNDdave, post: 357056, member: 20405"] I think the power brick supplies 60W, so the requirements are much less than your inverter. If this link works... [url=http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=94688C24&nplm=TJ375]Inverter[/url] from the Apple store for ~£50 (and it cuts off once the voltage drops below 10.5V so I think that would not drain your battery). As for speed - there will be a speed difference between the 1.83 and 2.0GHz MacBooks but I don't think it is something you'd notice in normal every day tasks. I think many people will agree with me when I say that the RAM is the most important speed factor in normal everyday tasks. If you can at some point buy more RAM then you will notice a speed increase. I'm not sure what a fresh install of OSX takes up in terms of HDD space. Welcome to the community I hope you're pleased with your purchase when it finally arrives on Wednesday. [/QUOTE]
