[QUOTE="jaywong87, post: 560285, member: 16440"] No, the Macbook cannot handle Sims 2 with a decent framerate, its hardly playable. But from what you're telling us, the Macbook fits your needs more. Trust me, having the extra features the MBP gives you are nifty, but it quickly wears off if you're not doing anything really extensive. You said light film editing, and the MB can handle that just fine. The MBP is overkill, and you'll have buyer's remorse for spending near 2.5k on a machine you wont be using to its fullest. If you do go for the MB, be sure to get the Invisible Shield, it makes it so that the finger prints dont "smudge" on the machine, but rather, on the protective film. Also, if you apply the top film, it'll give your Macbook Black a glossy finish. Avoid if thats not your thing. Oh, and one more thing: Sound. The MB's speakers are absolutely horrid. Some headphones or some speakers will fix that quick. [/QUOTE]
