Hey Folks....
My daughter was in a car accident that damaged her macbook pro so the other driver's insurance will be buying her a new one. She had the first gen MBP with the 1.83 processor plus a gig of ram that I added (1.5 total). So I told them the baseline replacement mac will be $1999 plus the ram. Now I will get an education discount, so that will drop the price, but doesn't matter because they are paying.
My question is do I get the 2.16 model or upgrade to the 2.33 with the extra video ram? She doesn't need it right now, but I wonder if I just don't go ahead and get the "latest and greatest" 15 inch.
Opinions welcomed!!
