David, could you please do a benchmark on your the new MacBook Pro and share the results. I’m thinking of getting the new MacBook Pro but if it is not a huge improvement then I’d hang on to my first generation macbook pro. Thanks!

Hi just cruising by your site, hows the mac book pro is it worth it? im on the fence right now due to the student discount etc. thanks!

Student discount? Definitely worth it! However, if you’re not a computer-engineer-type person and do not need a blazingly fast computer, MacBook might be good enough.
