The quod is already decided, but there is a difference, 2.2, and 2.0. but it seems that there won't be much difference. From what people on this list and another where I asked. Thanks.

Deciding between the 13 and the 15, dual and quad core, will make quite a bit of difference. Other than that I wouldn't worry about it. Moving up to 8 gb of memory is something worth doing for sure. The solid state disk makes all the difference in the world. You should determine what you want to do with the machine. Let that drive your choice of machine. If you are going to be writing documents, sending mail, browsing the web and using iTunes than a upgraded mac book air would be the least expensive way to get great performance. If you need a bit more processing power for audio recording, editing and mixing or photo editing than the 13 or 15 inch mac book pro would be the way to go. Solid state disks really make a difference and you get one by default in the mac book air. The minimum amount of memory one should have in a computer with 10.6 is 4 gb in my opinion. It makes it much more enjoyable to use. I have 8 gb and an ssd in my mac book pro and it's wonderful. I have a dual core i7.

Will it have a noticeable difference, and does mac software take up more hard drive space than windows software?
