[QUOTE="jakep450, post: 395215, member: 31280"] So im going to buy a macbook in the next few days. My burning question is should i spring for the 2.16 ghz midrange model, or would i be completely satisfied with the low end model? The superdrive seemed nice at first, but i think i can just pop on my old pc if i want to burn a dvd or something (very rare occurance). and between 80 and 120gb, its just a laptop, so i dont need to have EVERYTHING in the world with me, and external HDs are cheap. As i type this, i find myself wanting to save 200$ since i dont think there will be hardly any noticable difference. Could one really tell between 2.16 and 2.0 ghz? I dont want to be dissapointed i didnt get the step up, but at the same time i wonder if id even notice?! One last question, is there any advantage between buyign it online vs at say my bookstore? Tax anbd everything the same at both? I doubt my bookstoer would have the updated models, or would it? Thanks a ton! [/QUOTE]
