I am upgrading from a powerbookG4 to a new MBP and have been lurking here for the last few months trying to figure every thing out. I ordered the new 2.5 15inch Tuesday (w/the educational discount) and was super excited.
But today I saw the 2.4 MBP refurb for $1650 US, and am thinking about switching my order.
I use it for Photoshop with files up to 4gb, and batch processing up to about a thousand images at a time.
How noticeable is difference going to be for me it seems like it is not worth the approx. thousand dollar difference after I upgrade the hard drive and memory.
Money is a considerable concern but not the only one.
Thanks in advance for any advice and thanks for all the posts over the last few months that have helped me understand a bit more about what I am buying.
