I'm sorry to add my tread,since it will increase the clutter... .
I feel the urge to kill my university pal samsung nc10 (atom 10" 6 cell netbook still up to 7h of light office tasks) that doesn't like very much decaf-tea (it still working after i opened it up and done some maintennance.
Sitting at home i have a imac 2ghz coreduo 2gb ram 500hd 256mb x1600m that i use mostly for everything else since the NC10 not only feels but it is SLOW .
I would like to have for 3-4y some decent portability,battery life and maybe some horsepower to grind : light office task and , but not mainly , some games , (i have steam with some source games i enjoy despite the lack of gaming performances on my imac) i enjoy opening like 20+ internet pages at time and doing little image editing at the same time or playing 720p content.
I'm mostly focused in a macbooc pro 13" base, but i long for a 13" upper version for that +166Mhz bump that while it isn't much it might help in gaming (still it won't be my main pourpose since i already have a ps3) but i don't know if i can justify the circa 300+ euro premium (that it might be lower since i'll get some 80$ 500-640gb).
Also i've thought about selling my imac for like 300euros ( dunno , would be too high?) and getting the lower end 15" but i think it would be small for home use (i really like at least 20" estate) and too big carring around at my university (since whe don't have a real table to place the notebooks but instead something more like an armrest)
Any thoughts?
