    Default apple macbook 2.26 or macbook pro 2.26??

    im deciding on getting a new 13.3" macbook but i cant seem to find any differences between the two besides aluminum case, sd slot, and firewire.... are these the only differences?

    Im running a macbook pro with 4gbs of ram and the 2.53 cpu. i LOVE this pc. no problems at all. NEVER experienced lagg nor has my computer ever crashed. i love the unibody because it feels sturdy and it looks very professional. the firewire port does come in handy depending on what u plan to use the computer for.

    Don't get caught up in the hype... Mac's are still PC's... Still consist of a mobo, hard drive and video card... the only thing different about a Mac and a Windows/Linux machine is simply the OS. Stick a Windows 7 disk into any Mac and reformat that baby and I bet you come out with a Windows 7 machine.

    But goes to show what a great job of marketing Apple has done.

    Well and you will pay twice as much for the Mac for the same hardware. Is the Mac OS worth double the money. Hell no. But vs vista i will give you a maybe, Vs Windows 7. Absolutely not.

    I built a dell to match my mac book and actually the dell was closer to 1300 and my mac book was 940 after tax. so actually macs are cheaper
