We need to buy a new macbook in the very near future. On the off
chance that others on the list have just gone through and done this
research ....
It's primary use will be for Zab to use for homework, but it would be
nice if it would also work reasonably well for photography when we're
away from home.
We're probably looking at the 15", but are willing to consider the
17". She'll primarily use it at her desk, but will occasionally need
to take it to the library (she's getting a masters in library science,
so she spends a fair amount of time at various libraries).
First question:
Is there any huge difference in any of the screen options? I know that
they have glossy and anti glare screens, but are there TN, TFT or any
other technology choices that I should be aware of?
I have always worked on the principle that Apple charges about a three
times premium for disk space and memory, that you're far better off
getting the smallest amount they sell, and upgrading it yourself. I've
heard some rumors that you can no longer buy a 500GB drive for less
than the differential in price between the 320 and 500 from Apple.
Our plan was to buy a refurbished unit, but she also qualifies for a
student discount. Can you use a student discount on top of the refurb
price?
Are there any other questions I should be asking?
