So, if somebody wanted more they could pay a little more and get one with a bigger HDD. I don't feel that I need that much since I have all of my stuff on it now and still have 90GB free, plus I plan on buying a terabyte external HDD to put on my network.

The reason it is 13.3" is for portability. You know, what laptops were designed for. If you want a bigger screen the MacBook pro has that, (15", or 17") but many people prefer portability. It isn't like its poor quality, it still has a pretty high resolution, even though it is small.

You can get them with up to 4GB RAM, but Apple overcharges for RAM, so I ordered it with 1GB and installed 4GB myself.

Haha, you're a dumb bitch, because you're going to spend the same amount on something that has lower specs in areas that actually mean something. I.e. CPU

Eh mine comes with 2GB, and 320GB harddrive.....

Like I said I have a 15inch screen right now...I perfer bigger, more pimpness! Also, 13 inch is far too small I didn't even want the CR series vaio b/c it came with a 14inch screen.Come on, you talk up Macs, you shouold have atleast got a macbook pro, yntil you do I'd stop talking like you do about macs,


I prefe tweeked laptop, you apparently do not. The specs on the macbook are not impressive....not by a far, I see a few things on the Pro that seem good, but not for me since to me it's a backwards computer

Oh, my fuçk, could you be any dumber? I already explained the reasoning behind the screen size, I don't want to lug around some big ass laptop the size of a table. There is no damn reason for me to get a MacBook Pro. Its like you're buying a truck, and you can pay extra for a model that has a snow plow on it but you live in California. The version with the plow may be excellent for some people, but if you don't have any snow to plow then wouldn't it make sense to save $1,000 and get the model without the plow? I'm only going to be doing light video editing, so I don't need a discrete graphics card.

The specs are fairly impressive, and more so than the cheaper Sony that you were looking at. Quit being so ignorant.

I beg to differ, the laptop is the same price as a what you have....if it were more, i'd hear a dial tone, but so far it's just *click*
"
Then post up the specs on it. Because my cousin as the same thing you have, but hers is white I've messed around on hers, and I was NOT impressed. I think you are gay now. MacBooks are for women, and MacBook Pros are for males. Stop being gay, and go get a Pro

Just from the very basic hardware tab in the System Profiler, we can see that it has a faster processor, double the cache, and double the memory. Do I need to go into more detail?

Your cousin probably has the older model anyway, because they were recently upgraded.

MacBooks are for women? Now you're just making completely irrelevant and idiotic arguments. I could go around saying "Sony is teh ghey" all day, but it isn't going to mean anything.

Oh, and mine is also white, because black is teh ghey.

I'm not saying that it has unseen specs or something, but they are fairly good, and far above that of the average computer. The main thing I'm trying to get at is that while you act as if it is inferior to the Sony, it is actually the other way.

A computer is personal prefference in my opinion. It's just you have talked up MAC for the longest time and it's become OLD real FAST. You come off as if MAC is the best computer out there. I wasn't going by the specs. I was going by word of mouth from you. How you are obessed with Mac, and everything is below it, other people out there will tell you HP is better, and again, thats PERSONAL prefference so instead of building up Mac so much why don'y you just wait until you are packing a 3,000 dollar laptop, until, then you could zip it, and let others with other opinions about other computers have an opinion as well.

LOL Hypocrite? You say to let others have an opinion, yet you are trying to stifle mine? The price of a computer has nothing to do with having the right to judge it. Thats like saying that you can't say how great Porsches are unless you have the most expensive one available.

Oh, BTW Mac is not an acronym, so stop capitalizing the whole thing.

And that makes it any less hypocritical?

I don't really give a damn what you want to hear about, so your efforts will be wasted anyway.

We know you don't give a damn. Because you continue to talk up Mac.
You are just a high school, kid that sits in the house on the "interweb".
