this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Sweet potato fries are surpringly good with cheese.

Sweet tater fries are excellent with seasoned salt on them.

There's a 13" Macbook Pro that I can't afford (would have to buy on credit), but is the least expensive one that would handle my needs.

Macmall.com is clearing out some of its Macbook Pros because of the new ones that were just released. And I'm ashamed to admit this, but in looking at the specs, I cannot tell what makes a 13" Macbook Pro "better" than a 13" Macbook. I know one is aluminum and the other is unholy white. I know the Macbook Pro has a firewire port and the Macbook doesn't have one. And I know the Macbook Pro has a SD card drive, while the Macbook doesn't have one.

Beyond that, processor speed seems the same, as do the rest of the technical specs (I understand that hard drive size and RAM are variable; that's not my issue).

Am I missing something? Or is the different just in the SD card drive and the Firewire port?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Allyson, through academic pricing at my uni, I could get you a 13" Macbook for $845 (probably about $900 once you add in the various taxes, but still). E me if you're interested.

eta: Macbook Pros are $1049 (2.26) and $1099 (2.4).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Better graphics processor, I think.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Best of all, if you order animal-style

I've heard that the animal-style fries are pretty great and edible by me.

Sweet potato fries are surpri[si]ngly good with cheese.

Huh, really? Interesting.
