    need to get a new macbook. figured i'd go with a refurb as I don't need the latest and greatest...but still want it to be useful for everyday design needs.

    which one should I get? I'm not sure but aside from the HD size and the video card they are pretty comparable.

    • get the second one: more storage and a better video card. those are things that you'll want for long term use. they're close—but get the better video card.jaylarson
    • good call. i usually hold on to them for like 3-4 years anyway :)lvl_13
    • Agreed. And it was appropriate that you refurbished an old thread for a refurbished computer.CyBrainX
    • haha, for sure :)lvl_13
    • i'd love an upgrade myself. those 5k iMacs look tasty! actually, anything with an ssd sounds good.jaylarson
