[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1573358, member: 56379"] If this is the case...how do you know that you're not paying way too much for the MacBook Pro?? I think that there's always a way to determine how much a computer is worth. You just may not know how to do it. Which of course it different than it can't be done.;) This website for estimating used Mac values (Mac2sell.net) has many many European countries in it's database. Even if your country is not listed...maybe the values from a nearly country (and using a currency convertor)...you can come up with a close estimate. You may also have eBay in your country...so you can check eBay as well. If this MacBook Pro has a better display (in your estimation), more ram, and a larger SSD...these all could be good things (even if cpu performance is not better than the MacBook Air). But it still comes down to how much more do you need to pay to get these improvements. Over-paying is not a good thing. Since your MacBook Air is only 2 weeks old...do you still have the option of returning it to the place you purchased it (or returning it & exchanging it for a better model + more cash)? - Nick [/QUOTE]
