[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1553553, member: 56379"] Yes...that's the way it goes sometimes! But I would strongly recommend doing at least the ram upgrade. Extra $100 I believe. I would also recommend checking out the refurbished area. Save a couple hundred.:) This may interest you: [url=http://store.apple.com/us/product/FD102LL/A/refurbished-macbook-pro-29ghz-dual-core-intel-i7]Refurbished 13.3-inch MacBook Pro 2.9GHz Dual-core Intel i7 - Apple Store (U.S.)[/url] - dual core 2.9ghz i7 - 8gig ram - 750 gig HD - $1269 * Nick p.s. And the ram is upgradeable later on to 16gig if you would so choose or need it. And you can either upgrade the HD to a larger capacity HD or and SSD...AND you can remove the optical drive...and install an SSD (two drives in the same laptop)!:) Can't do all this with newer models.
