The MacBook Pro's have bigger screens and, stock, run faster. The fastest MacBook isn't as powerful as the lowest MacBook Pro.

I like my 2Ghz macbook with 2GB ram, because it's small and easy to use @ school

Only thing I hate about it is, that I have to take it to the service for like the second time already. Keyboard plate is discolored and mousebutton is semibroken .
First time the motherboard broke

i'm always carrying my 15 inch pro though, i guess if you don't take your laptop everywhere a 17 would work...but 17 is more for graphic design and maybe gaming. As for the regular macbook, it's not like you will feel a huge difference in performance between it and the pro if they are similar stats.

I like the real estate, It's very useful for audio/video applications that require a bigger screen, but still portable.

Obviously but:

* 2GB 667 DDR2 SDRAM - 2x1GB
* 200GB Serial ATA drive @ 4200 rpm
* Superdrive 6x (DVD+R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)


$1,874.00

Macbook Pro (15in 2.16)

* 2.16GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
* 2GB 667 DDR2 SDRAM - 2x1GB
* 200GB Serial ATA Drive @ 4200 rpm
* SuperDrive 6x (DVD+R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)

$2,374.00

Macbook Pro (15in 2.33)

* 2.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
* 2GB 667 DDR2 SDRAM - 2x1GB
* 200GB Serial ATA Drive @ 4200 rpm
* SuperDrive 6x (DVD+R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)

$2,699.00

Macbook Pro (17in 2.33)

* 2.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

* 200GB Serial ATA Drive @ 4200 rpm

500+ dollar difference for 2 inches, up to 1/3 ghz+ and a nicer graphics card.

Is it worth it? i don't know, someone tell me.

haha , yeah for a second i got your joke but decided to disregard it because i can't comment !

yeah 15.4 can be quite a hassle too...wouldve been cool if they made macbook pro the same same size as the powerbook 12'' as well.

hey if you can afford those $500, why not. i wouldn't go broke just because i want 2 inches more and a better graphic card though. and 1/3 ghz is nothing. kinda like the 1.86 vs 2.0...theres very little difference..they just charge you more for insignificance.

The 2 inches will make a big difference, especially if you're going to be using the laptop a lot. It boils down to what you're going to use it for. If you're just going to use it as a laptop, for e-mail, homework, internet, playing music...get the regular. If you're going to be doing music production, graphics/movie editing, get the pro. I got the pro and my friend has the regular one, I'm much happier with the pro.
