[QUOTE="JapanGuy, post: 998903, member: 143559"] Thanks! Based on what I'm hearing, I'm leaning toward getting a 15-inch MacBook Pro (2.66GHz, Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB Memory, 320GB hard drive, SD card slot, NVIDIA GeForce 9400M + 9600M GT with 256MB) and doing my music work using "Garage Band". That would run me $1,999. I see that it comes with a 320GB Serial ATA Drive @ 5400 rpm, but I wonder -- is getting the optional 128GB solid-state drive [+$300] a good idea? (I also use an external hard drive, so a 128GB drive on board would suffice, and the thought of a solid-state drive is very appealing....) Also, is the Antiglare Widescreen Display (+$50) worth it? Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
