[QUOTE="CBJammin103, post: 426502, member: 26010"] I may be trading in (rather, selling) my 6-month old Macbook for a Macbook Pro. I have absolutely NO complaints about it at all, but I'm just seeing that I might need a professional-level laptop. The cost difference would be about $800 USD (hopefully) and I would also get the student free iPod nano (or $200 off another iPod, I believe). So effectively it would be a $600 or so upgrade. Anyway, before I do this, I would like to try to find out about anything possibly negative about the Pro. In CompUSA, it seemed that the lighting was disturbingly uneven vertically, but the in-store models could very well have been subjected to abuse and misuse and so on. Also, the trackpad seemed rather rough on my fingers compared to my Macbook. Are these issues for anyone? Basically, to all you pro owners: if you could change 1 or 2 things about your MBP, what would you change? And what would you suggest to a new Macbook Pro owner or buyer? Thank for your time!
