Which one is a better deal?

[waloshin]

- What would be the better deal?

last gen MPB 15" 2.4ghz 9600 gt vs
new MPB 13" 2.53ghz 9400m?

The last gen is 1500 refurb while the 2.53ghz mbp 13" will likely be around that price when sold as a refurb.

Definitely last gen model, it has dedicated GPU

Umm, do you need a dedicated GPU? Why pay for something you don't need 😕
