What is the best I7 Intel processor to get on the Macbook Pro 15"? Are these processors 2nd generation processors? Does it matter? Should I wait until - when? - for 2nd generation processors to be used? Does the 2.5 Mh processor make a difference?
I'm about to order a MacBook Pro 15". I wonder if the I7 processors are 2nd generation or if it matters. Also, is there significant benefit to getting the 2.4 or 2.5 Ghz processor over the 2.2? I'm not a gamer or graphics manipulator, but I do look at (not edit) a lot of video for my work, and I typically multi-task, having many applications and internet windows open at once. Also, I will be running Windows for work access and applications. Of course, I have little idea what makes a difference in my use experience, except I plan to get max RAM and probably the fastest hard drive. Any advice welcome.
