hey,
i've been looking into getting a macbook.
as you know there's the option of either black or white.
if i spec both the same - 2gb ram and 200gb hdd - there's a cost difference
black - 1,616.56
white - 1,494.35

but both seem identical - is there any reason to pay the extra 120e?

If you don't get the Black one you run the risk of being viewed as terminally unhip! Worth every cent......:-)
