The new late-09 model?
Apart from screen size (17 vs 15") and having a 2.83GHz CPU (170MHz faster) and a 500GB HD (as opposed to 300GB) and 512MB video RAM instead of 256MB, and the 7 hour battery, is the upgrade justified?
I do a LOT of website design and photography...
I'm thinking 'no' to this, even though I could likely sell my current MBP for $1200 or so (has protective case and 3 year extended warranty), but having glanced at the 17" screen, the menu bar up top is very small when you consider 1920x1200 is nice on a 24" display...
