[QUOTE="simplysae, post: 715590, member: 65480"] Thanks Zoolook for your insights. And welcome NumberSix. In terms of RAM and transfer speed, I'll be needing to switch between multiple apps (Photoshop, Illustrator, Fireworks and Dreamweaver) at one time. As I am training to be a front-end web designer/developer, these are apps I use continuously. I feel you NumberSix, as my files do end up pretty big too. I could just get the bare miniumum and then upgrade it myself. Upgrading would be in 3 parts: RAM, storage and Video card. Will the 512MB of graphics good enough for your Photoshop usage, NumberSix? My biggest concern now is the timing...best timing to buy the MBP. I want to take advantage of the student promo, so I can get the ipod...but these rumors make me skeptical and guides tell me to wait. But I reasoned that, who cares if the new one comes out, esp. if i can't afford it? The only thing that may matter at that point that would make me care is that, the price may drop down *significantly* and I could've just waited another few weeks/months. What then? [/QUOTE]
