So the Apple refurb has the black macbook for 1049 right now. Lowest price I've seen it as
13.3-inch glossy widescreen display
1GB memory
120GB hard drive
6x SuperDrive (DVD+R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)
Built-in iSight camera
I currently have an HP dv6000t (15inch) with 2 ghz C2D, 120gb HD, Geforce graphics, 1gig RAM.
Seems to be like identical systems. Would a Macbook suffice as being a good only computer? I like to encode video and edit photos. I do a little graphic design freelance as well, but I've done everything with the HP, only thing struggling could be the 13-inch monitor of the macbook.
Should I snag this before it goes away? I'd sell my HP for hopefully 800-900, so basically just be spending a hundred or so more
OR
Well what about this scenario: I sell my HP laptop, buy an iMac. Either 17-inch refurb (849), 20inch refurb(1049) or new 20(1149)
17-inch widescreen display
1GB memory
160GB hard drive
8x SuperDrive (DVD+R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)
ATI Radeon X1600 with 128MB GDDR3 memory
Built-in iSight camera
20 inch refurb
20-inch widescreen display
1GB memory
250GB hard drive
8x SuperDrive (DVD+R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)
ATI Radeon X1600 with 128MB GDDR3 memory
Built-in iSight camera
or new 20-inch low end iMac.
I already have an iphone so I guess if I really need portability, I can use that? I work as a technical support agent at an ISP so I'm around a computer all the time. I'm possibly thinking that having a desktop would allow me to use my computer LESS, (Which isn't really a bad thing). Ya know what I'm saying?
