  Why do U want to buy a MacBook when U want to run Microsoft things?

  Ya...can dual-boot...but dual-boot can be quite problematic sometimes...so if U can avoid such a configuration...why not?

  you don't really need 4GB RAM with the normal MacBook..

  so it if was me, i'd get the normal MacBook...

  but if someone else was paying for it, i'd get the biggest baddest MacBook Pro

  graphic then it would be macbook pro. the best choice here but its bigger in side as compared the macbook so if weight is a problem you would have to reconsider..

  u'll have to list out all ur pros and cons between what you need and what you can live without here.. note book like macbook pro aint cheap to start off with..

  All Apple notebooks are using intel processors now, thus, they all can run windows with apple's bootcamp. you must buy a windows os.

  however, are you sure you would like an apple instead of a windows?

  How do I install the windows in mac book pro? Do I need to buy original xp to run it? Can I use a pirated one instead?

  Hi linyu, I am interested to know where u quote this price from? Bcos from the specs that u gave, I dont think there is any other place that sells cheaper than u, even online.
