As of last month the difference was dual video cards in the Pro, so if you weren't editing video, etc you could drop to the lower power card, and the 12" MacBook was Aluminium. However, at the WWDC this month they moved the single video card Aluminium MacBook to Pro status changing the game. This is extremely odd for Apple as they now have only a single product named MacBook, and not a range.(Even if the range is only two choices) As such rumor hungry fans believe the only reason the plastic MacBook still exists is because an entirely new product line will be revealed this fall with the MacBook name. Also, if you are buying directly from Apple, don't forget to scroll to the bottom of the Store page and click on "Refurbished Mac" in the lower left hand corner. Very first option is a Refurbished MacBook 2.0Ghz Core Duo 2 - Plastic (White) 13 inch with 120 GB HD and 2 GB RAM with SuperDrive (DVD Burner) for $749.00 Don't forget, also, to check out LowEndMac (http://www.lowendmac.com) and click the "Deals" link and check out what a used one is going for as well ($594.99 1.83 Ghz 13 inch with 60 GB HD and 512 MB RAM and Combo Drive) to find the best deal for you.
