need advisement with MacBook pro purchase

[Livid Killer]

Hello everyone,

I had a question. I currently purchased a 13" MacBook Pro (3.1ghz, 512hd) and am considering returning it to get the 3.5ghz, 16mg ram, 1 tb, version. I've came to the conclusion that I need a 1tb of storage, this is a non discussion. But are the ram and processor upgrade worth it? I'd like to hear your opinions...

How do you use the computer?

You will likely see no improvement in day-to-day tasks with the processor upgrade from base; my advice would be to save your money on that. The RAM will depend largely on what you intend to do with the machine... are you a heave multi-tasker or work with very large data libraries?

Both, there is music and other content creation, but the aim was more for portability hence the 13" inch. I understand the capability behind the machine. Ive been working with it for a while. The specs on it now are ok, definitely better than the base processor, but I'm not sure if another bump is worthwhile. I am leaning to getting the 16gb of ram as well, as applications are getting a little ram hungry...Mutli tasking is life!
