[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 306705, member: 21101"] In a word, no. Real world performance differences between a CD and C2D is around 10 and 15%. Now CS3 may be coded to take advantage of the C2D, especially with 64-bit Tiger around the corner, but an extra $1000 for what might mean shaving 25% time of a render? That's your choice. If you are a photo journalist and uploading an adjusted image to your newspaper in record time is important, then maybe. For the hobbyist, I'd say spend the money on a lens or external storage, which you'll want a lot of. Not in a MBP. [/QUOTE]
