Question for the readers: I have an early 2008 15" Macbook Pro (2.5Ghz, 4GB, 250GB, 512MB 8400M) that I got an insane deal on when the unibody MBP was released. I like it, but am considering getting the new 13" MBP if I can sell the old one.

Though I would lose the dedicated graphics memory, I would pick up better battery, lighter weight, better battery life, unibody design, SD card slot and an ever-so-slight processor speed boost. Would you take the plunge or not?

The latest macbook pro (17 inch) is said be the best in performance so far. And the 8 hour battery life as well

How will it compare when Open CL comes out with OSX SN? Then they might be more worth the upgrade!

Well nice man, u did benchmark a mac book model where the main upgrade was the GPU & implementation for graphical advanced UI or rendering operations ….. and since snow leopard will use the gpu much more then the system right now … ur benchmarks are .. lets say …… JUST A WASTE OF TIME …..

go and benchmark some IBM oder DELL powerhorses if u want to check out CPU performance …. what a dumbass …….

It’s hard to choose between Macbook 2.0GHZ and Macbook 2.4GHZ.Is that worth 300$ plus for the minor enhancement of CPU and harddrive capacity?I am a little comfused.Can anyone make a choice for me?Thanks,guys!

Will the speed of the base model macbook be adequate? The more expensive model is faster I noticed. Possibly… coming from windows I am unfamiliar with the speed required to effectively use the OS.
Thank you for your comments.
