@schizophrenic, You asked about ACPP - well it's really peace of mind; some of us believe in it and some of us don't. You gotta make the decision for urself but U have up to the end of your 1st year warranty to activate the ACPP so U don't have to buy it now

Both are 2D application. MB is more than enuf seriously. Usually i running 3 applications, AI + PS + DRW. 2D application need ram and processor juice

@=Hanxz=, It can't be much better in terms of aesthetics since the shell and casing's the same as the current models; the difference is perhaps in the track pad but that doesn't really change aesthetics much

I've been eye'ing for the macbook since late January in anticipation for a new release and when they finally released the revision models i managed to get the 2.2 MBP baseline model clearance stock (5799) from switch for roughly the same budget as the old 2.2 macbook price (5499). I must humbly say that there's been no regrets so far and it's definitely a bargain buy. gotta love the ambient light change feature.
