MacBook Confusion
Yesterday I spend some more time in the Apple store looking and drooling on MacBooks.
I thought I had fully made up my mind about which MacBook to get, but I still find myself a little confused. The smaller MacBook is one pound lighter, $550 cheaper (based on how I would configure it with more Ram and a larger hard drive) and smaller. I like how small it is, and it I’d quite usable.
The 15 inch. MacBook pro has a better screen, and this is my hanging point. I can’t get past the better screen. It’s larger, but it’s also better. The contrast is better, and when watching a movie on it, the black parts of the screen are really black as opposed to dark grey. I think this will be important to me.
It also has better graphics, an even larger hard drive, FireWire, and an expansion port. It looks as though the speakers would be better as well, but I’m not sure about it.
It is heavier, it is larger. I would like to take it with me often, so that will be a bit of a minus.
I think I will still go with the 15″. But I don’t feel as certain it’s the right choice as I was before.
Anyone else have thoughts ok this?
