I know many of you on this list are Mac users and so I'm asking for help. I'm looking to upgrade my computer (new workstation, and two new monitors). I'm budgeting about $1500 - $2000. A co-worker of mine said that a friend of HIS is selling a Macbook. Since I know that's an Intel machine I was curious so I asked about the specs. Can you guys tell me what you think this machine is worth? It's a late-2006 Macbook. 2GHz Core 2 Duo with SuperDrive. He upgraded the RAM to 2GB and the hard drive to 160GB. The model number is MA700LL/A (Google says that this is a 13.3 inch screen). But, that series is generally called the Late 2006 Macbook. It's the white 2GHz one from that series. He's got all of the original packaging, accessories, disks, etc. More importantly, I'm needing a new machine to work on. My PC is nearing the end of it's useful life and so I'm wanting something that kicks some hiney. I need to run Photoshop, Illustrator, etc. on it. I also need to run code on it. At the moment I only have CS2 and I've heard that CS2 is pretty slow on Intel Macs. Finally, I need comparisons on this computer to a newer Dell workstation. I prefer to have a desktop machine, but if I can get away with a laptop that can run fast, can run Windows, and can be hooked up to a real monitor, then a laptop is okay. Amazon has this price listed for the machine: http://www.amazon.com/Apple-MacBook-MA700LL-Notebook-SuperDrive/dp/B000GABVO S
