So I went to a officially licensed Apple Store (not a real Apple Retail Store, because they don't exist where I am atm.) and asked if it's worth to upgrade to the i7 in the new 13 inch rmpb compared to the 2,6 ghz i5 processor. I did not tell her about my need, just whether the extra performance gain was worth the extra money.....

She said....."No, you should not upgrade to the i7, it's not worth it".

Got to say...that the most honest answer I have ever received, or she just hates her job. Still funny though :)

I agree. Why pay £160 for an i7 when said i7 isn't quad core, but it is in the 15" version? Good to see that staff aren't all for upselling you though.
