Buyers remorse - cancel the order for new MBP?

The Macbook Pro will hold it's value much more than macbook... Like the powerbook compared to iBook... You still see power books for a 'lil over $1000 or more, while even the latest iBook is around 400-700 USD...

Just Something to think about... The Macbook Pro WILL hold its value more....

Also, the MBP has Firewire 800 now...

Well, actually, I see the iBook as having a better resale value. Here's how I figure:

You paid, what, $1300 for an iBook when it was new? And they're selling for $600ish now. That's only a loss of about $700.

The PB, on the other hand, cost you AT LEAST $2000 (probably nearer to something around $2300), and they're selling for under 1k now.. that's a MUCH bigger loss. Percentage wise and cash wise.
