I will be going to Uni next year, and am hoping to switch to a mac. And I can easily wait for the next mbp refresh so just using what the model specs are now can u help me out.

I was wondering is the 5400rpm hdd significantly worse than the 7200rpm drive, as this is a big factor in whether i shud go with 13mbp or 15mbp. With the few hundred pounds saved on the 13inch model, i could get an ACD instead.

the thing is i dont do any high video editing and stuff only using cs4 flash, database work etc. so the top end mbp isnt necessary but if i can spend the money why not?

so 13inch 2.53 ghz spec model + ACD. or top end 15inch mbp 2.8ghz cheers! :)
