[QUOTE="moe-jiller, post: 988261, member: 44446"] Evasfunk, 1st welcome to the Mac world. I have an early 2008 vintage Black Mac and a Mid 2008 vintage Mac book Pro. The unexpected difference I experience is that the Mac Book Pro's WiFi reception and performance is much more robust that the Black Mac. Using both as 'do it all' travel machines I like the size and weight of the Black Mac but almost always take the MB Pro when I travel. Bottom line - Perhaps consider a used MB Pro. Also - With the new iTablet / iSlate being announced today you may want to consider looking at that product. Speculation data that is available now seem it would fit your needs, has about the same size screen, may sale for under $900 or so, and is brand new / latest tech. and under warranty. [/QUOTE]
