Re: OT: New MBP... or not? (Firewire still necessary?)

Hi Per

Actually, I made a mistake:
The new MBPs (all of them) seem to support 8GB.

Same with me :)
Also keep in mind that the computer you buy _today_ should be able to run 
software of _tommorrow_ with reasonable performance - and you can be sure 
you'll need it for the newest plugins, tools etc.


i.e. notebook.de is selling exactly something like this for 1750,- EUR and 
13" :
Sony Vaio VPC-Z11V5E mit Intel Core i7 620M 2.66 GHz (Win 7)
- 33,3cm (13.1") Vaio Display Premium Full HD mit LED Beleuchtung, max 
Aufl. 1920x1080
- Intel Core i7 620M 2.66 GHz (4MB L3, 1066MHz FSB)
- 4096 MB DDR3-RAM 1066Mhz
- 500 GB Serial ATA (7200 U/Min)

Why should I pay 1450,-EUR for a C2D MacBookPro if I can have this baby?
The only thing stopping me at the moment is Logic/Mainstage...

best regards
