To get back to the design students’ question about laptops I’m a freelance designer myself, and for goodness sakes, buy a desktop! You get WAY more performance bang for the buck (not to mention that all-important bigger, better monitor), that way you’ll have a solid system to work with for a few years. Well hope this helps people contemplating the switch the way I am currently. Interestingly, Anandtech’s tests indicate that the dual-channel RAM mode available on the MBP actually doesn’t improve performance any. **crosses fingers** ? I wondered if the shared video RAM will have any impact on performance myself, and haven’t seen any conclusive test results one way or the other (then again I haven’t checked anywhere for any benchmarks recently). Anandtech is a good place to go for benchmarking data, and I’ve written them a couple times asking for a head to head analysis of the MB and MBP.

Then next year, when the MBP has had another full rev and a nice speed bump, I can pick one up to use as my main development machine. I’m thinking that the MB is probably the right machine to buy now – to replace the PowerBook and Dell as my travel machine and primary mobile kit. Price – a $1000 difference when each has 2 GB of RAM and a 100GB HD.Ability to drive a 30″ display – the MBP can, the MB can’t.Size and weight – Though the MB is 2 diagonal inches shorter in the screen 2, it isn’t that much smaller in other areas.It will be easier to read and work on the MBP. The MBP has a 15.4″ 1440 by 900 screen (110.25 pixels / diagonal inch) while the MB packs 1280 x 800 into a 13.3″ screen (113.5 pixels / diagonal inch). Screen/pixel size – remember, pixel size matters.A fast drive is a must for any real development on a laptop. Hard drive speed – the MB doesn’t seem to have a 7200rpm drive option like the MBP.I’m hoping that the MB will have improved battery life, if only because of the smaller screen. Battery life – the reports I hear are that the MBP has decent battery life, but nothing great.The main differences between the MB and the 15″ MBP for my consideration are as follows:

In fact, I hope this machine will functionally replace both my 17″ PowerBook and my 12″ Dell, becoming my main/only portable while I continue to use the Quad as my main development machine.Īs I plan to have this be my road warrior machine, and I’ve had numerous issues with the bulk of my 17″ PowerBook on airplanes, I’m only considering the 15″ MBP at this time.

The ability of either machine to run Mac OS X and Windows will accomplish one very nice feat – I won’t have to travel with two laptops when I do consulting work. This year I plan to get a laptop, and there is no doubt it will either be a MacBook (MB) or a MacBook Pro (MBP). I got my 17″ PowerBook back in April 2004 and my Quad in October 2005 1.
