13 or 14 inch Powerhouse laptop

I would go with a MBP. They are a little pricey, but hold up well (for your bike rides) and will function as desired.

Build wise this doesnt seem like a quality laptop

And I assume you've held one in your hand to support this

Not the envy in particular but I've had two other HP notebooks in the and did not have a great experience.

 

[speedyink]

Yeah, well, HP makes some real shite as well. Doesn't automatically make their nicer line of laptops crap.

Regardless of the laptop customer support will be the same. I did not have great service with there tech support.

 

[speedyink]

Ahh, I'm not one to use tech support. Gots no idea how any of them are, lol.

If I get the MBP which alot of you are suggesting should I get the 13 inch MBP with clock speed of 2.4 GHz (starting at 1249,00) or 2,66GHz (starting at 1549,00)? The 13 inch MBP also comes with intel core 2 Duo compared to other quad core processor we are seing in various other models like the 15 and 17 inch MBP.

So my questions are Should I wait for a quad core processor in 13 inch MBP models? If not which clock speed would be best to run Adobe CS5 Master Collection?

Ideally I need the computer by mid August but I could wait until September 2011 at the latest.
