<p>the only game i'd probably play in college is starcraft 2...if it ever comes out!</p>
<p>anyways, i'm trying to decide whether i should get the $1699 macbook pro or the $1999 macbook pro for these pretty basic functions. of course, i'll probably end up doing more, such as uploading photos, installing different softwares, maybe more games, etc. so i definitely can't just get by with a netbook. </p>
<p>my main question is: should i purchase a laptop now thinking it'll last me past undergrad (into grad school) or should i purchase one know assuming i'll buy a better laptop 4 years from now when I go to grad school? If the answer is yes to the first one, i'd get the $1999 macbook pro, and vice versa. With student discounts, the prices become $1850 and $1600, which makes the $1999 macbook pro look even more appealing. Anyone else thinking about buying one of the new macbook pros?</p>
