Two questions:
(1) I am trying to decide between the white and the aluminum Macbook. My question is, what are the real differences? I see the aluminum Macbook has a bigger hard drive, the memory is DDR3 rather than DDR2, and... the case is aluminum. Why is that $300? Is the memory difference worth the money? Is the hard disk? Is the aluminum so much better, sturdier -- or is it just aesthetic? $300 seems like an awful lot of money for what appears like very minor changes to me. Am I missing something?
(2) I would like to use Windows Vista with my Mac.
Thank you in advance! I hope these questions aren't too amateurish for the forum.

(2) I would like to use Windows Vista with my Mac.
- (a) Do I need to buy anything separate (other than Windows Vista software itself) to use it, or is everything I need included and pre-installed?
- (b) Is it possible to get viruses on my Mac with Windows installed? Do I need to invest in antivirus software? If so, which is recommended?
