no reason to be jealous...I have the black macbook from 2.5 years ago and seen a few new lines come and go and still not eager to get rid of minefor a new one.Originally Posted by AJChick23
I have a feeling that after I cop this MBP very soon...a new line will pop up..BUT..I won't be jealous..cuz I'll still have a mac.
You could, but it would cost more money for a new board and CPU unit which automatically would void your warranty. If you had your iMac for lessthan the return deadline, I say exchange it. But if not, what are you really going to use the Quad-core iMac for? If you are into heavy use in photography,graphic design, video editing, and music. Then try to sell it and pay the difference. If not, the Core 2 Duo is still pretty fast to handle that workload. Especially with the ram standing at 4GB, you could upgrade that up to 16GB if you need more juice.

Well what do you need them for and what will you use them for? It comes down to portability. I don't really understand the logic of owning atwo MBP's. Unless one of them was a previous model. If you need something portable and a work horse, I definitely would suggest that you go with the i5Quad core iMac and a 13" MBP. The benchmark on the i5 is really, really, good. If your budget cannot reachthat, the Core 2 Duo is also a solid machine as well. In regards to the MBP, try to hold off on them at the moment. Rumors are swirling that the new QuadMBP's may arrive early 2010. If you need a portable CPU to bring around, what about Hackintoshing a Dell Mini 10v? That may be my next project instead ofbuying a used MB.

i was gonna use the comps for home use.... dont the i5 quad core only come with the 27inch screen?.. that thing looks too big...
I have a a 27" and at first I thought the screen was huge, but I got used to the screen right away. A lot of room for photo work and somevideo work in my instance. Yes the Quad core only comes with the 27" model...But if you wait by beginning of January, MBP's should probably have anupdate with quad core processors. But it's really on how you work, if you need two MBP's then go for it.
