Hi all,
I have been trying to make a decision on what machine to buy, but it seems near impossible.
I need a laptop for college to type so documents and enter so research data. I will probably access the lab server using RDC. I will also use it for presentations.
1. I like the look of the middle range Macbook (white) and I can get is for $1199 (student discount). My objections are weight (>5lbs), non-LED 13.3" screen, non backlit keyboard.
2. I also like the Macbook pro and can get the top of the line one for $1999. My objections are the price (way too much for a laptop) and aluminum case (gets very hot).
Please help decided.
