[QUOTE="tkim, post: 712769, member: 62802"] To take this one step further, why pay more money for something you won't use? For the uses you listed, there really is no need for to get the MBP other than the screen size. If that's an issue you could always hook it up to a monitor. If you want maximum portability, the MB is the way to go, IMHO. I'd check the apple website at least one a day if I were you. Typically in the early morning hours because that's when they are listed and they are first come first serve. I checked it every day for a week until finally I saw a deal I couldn't pass up. I bought my MB for $300 less and it was basically new when I got it. No case defects, came with the latest version of leopard. I was weary at first but Apple puts all refurbs through stringent tests so they can resell them. I read up on what all that entails on their website. Obviously some deals are better than others, that's why I suggest checking it everyday. Once something is listed and bought, it's gone.
