I'm placing an order for a 15" Powerbook 1.67ghz, Superdrive, and 128mb of VRAM. I get the educational discount, so the total with $100 rebate comes out to about $2200 after tax.
I was at the Apple Store, though, and the 17" really caught my eye.
I found a used, 3 month old, 17" powerbook 1.67ghz locally, for about $2050, with superdrive, 128mb of vram, and 1gb DDR (1 stick). Also comes with sleeve and extra battery.
They're basically the same model, but the 17" is cheaper, has more memory and hard drive space, and comes with an extra battery. Am I going to find the 17" too bulky? I want to do a lot of live music, so I think the 17" would be easier on the eyes and be easier to work with, but would it look funny in Starbucks or Barnes and Noble (too big?)
Thanks
