Help me out... (1 Viewer)

[Goodbye]

I need a new laptop.

I dont need a full bells and whistles jobbie as I've a desktop at home and an 8core ordered for work.

I'm lovin the Black Macbook.
I have an old g4 TiBook so I'm done with the silver thing...
The black reminds me of the old g3 powerbook (apples best looker)
but heres my dilemma...

I'm buying in the states...
So it works out, for an extra 200 quid aprox, I could get the low end 15" MacBook Pro. Same specs, but bigger screen and graphics card.

What would you do?

go for the mac book pro. It's not made of plastic, you get firewire 800, better graphics, bigger screen etc

The black one is nice but I've seen them with oil stains from the palms of your hands on the keyboards. No amount of cleaning removes it.

I've got a black one, the finish is cack, matt weird plastic and seems to get marks from everything wish I'd gone for the ordinary one, would consider one of those skin things just to make it look tidier. go pro

Pity you cant get a Black pro

I'd stick with a Macbook, not the Pro.
If you have a decent desktop at home then you'd be better off keeping your laptop light & portable.


I have a white one, the girlfriend has a black one.
I thought the black one looked cool at first but the novelty wore off pretty quick.
You can get the white one to the same spec as the black one for €100 cheaper too.

The lack of cd/dvd drive on the Macbook Air would just piss me off.

I actually toyed with the idea for about half a day
