    500 quid for 2 extra inches seems a bargain...oh you were talking about laptop not about something else :p

    Oh I am sure apple will find some way to spin the lack-luster specs into something that sounds logical.... :rolleyes:

    13"! :D

    And it probably won't be a mbp but a macbook bindi :D

    Morpheon if you compare it to the similiar price dell and its not far off the same price (Dell have an offer of £200 quid off at the moment and a better graphics card) you then have to allow for all the extras the apple offer.

    OSX & windows option
    Aluminium chassis
    Thinner
    Lighter
    Quieter
    iSight camera
    Bluetooth
    Backlight keyboard
    Remote
    Mag safe power supply

    etc they all add up :)

    £1800 ish for the dell I think and £1929 for the apple with same ram config.


    The silly thing on the pricing is that you can spec and 15in mbp to be more expensive than the 17in for less hehe. That said alot of people prefer the portability of the 15in I know I do.
