[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1114516, member: 56379"] Probably a really good idea!:) The 17" MBP you mentioned has advantages & disadvantages. The 17" display is both it's biggest advantage & disadvantage. The bigger screen is nice...but then a 17" laptop can be much more bulky/heavy than a 13" Macbook. If you don't have a problem with the 17'' MBP's size & size & weight...then it might be the "better" computer for you. But if it is sort of big...then the 13" Macbook you already have is better. One things for sure...the 17" MBP is not going to be a faster computer...other than it does have better graphics hardware...but then the 17" is older, has the less modern Core Duo processor, and less max. ram. If the 17" MBP was a slightly newer model...with more things better or the same as your 13" Macbook...then the "better" computer would be easier to identify. - Nick [/QUOTE]
