Not a big difference at all, for normal things- if you were doing real time final cut pro stuff, it would show up. The real performance boost you'll see out of either of them would be simply adding the 48gig 5400rpm travelstar drive. The 550 has a lot less heat and noise also. -- Michael Bryan Bell http://homepage.mac.com/michael_bell/ -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
