I am in desperate of a new Macbook and was trying to hold off until next year (when the rumored Pros will turn more Air like) but I can't wait any longer because my computer is about to die. I need something relatively cheap. I was looking at a refurbished 13' MacBook Pro2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (4gb ram) for $930 as a cheaper temporary fix so when next years refresh come out I can sell this one off and get a new one.
I mainly use: web, email, word processing, iMovie (moderate use), handbrake and photo edit using Gimp.
I am relatively ignorant about processor speed so I need a little help. I am guessing it wont have a problem handling almost all of those tasks, however I am bit worried about the video editing. Will it get the job done? Your advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
