Really depends on what I need to. I figure I get to spend at least a little of my refund money

Given what I need it for, I'm guessing I probably don't really need a Pro. What will a Pro do that a standard one w/larger hardrive & processor won't?

Forgive me, but other than the spelling I know nothing about Apples

For those needs, I think a MacBook would work well., The screen is only 13", but you could always buy a 17" monitor for watching DVD's.

Mine has been great so far and works well the wireless "airport" -- but that small screen can be a bummer. I only use it for the internet and some word processing, so it's good enough for now.
