Ok, so I'm going to buy some type of macbook soon, but I can't decide what to go with.
1st choice: Refurbished 2.16 1gb ram, 120 hd, white macbook refurbished from apple for $1099, and then upgrade to 3gb ram from http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other World Computing/53IM2DDR3GBK/
First of all is this ram upgrade even reliable?
Total Price: $1232 ish
2nd choice: Refurbished 2.2 2gb ram, 120 hd, 15" macbook pro refurbished from apple for $1699.
Total Price: $1699
Is the pro worth the extra $500? I think in the somewhat near future i'll be able to afford either option, but the extra $500 would take a little longer. If I go with the regular macbook would i regret it? I'm not sure exactly how necessary the pro would be, but I'd at least enjoy the option to do some stuff with the video card as opposed to the regular book.
