Get a Macbook Pro, with 2GB RAM would be my advice.

My mate has it on his Macbook Pro with 1GB, and he says it really does need the extra RAM.

But, who cares, the main reason I bought mine was because of OSX and it looked mint

Aperture is s**te. Stick to P/shop you ghey. Happy Birthday too.

They're 2 different products. Adobe lightroom is comparable to Aperture.

Aperture makes extensive use of the capabilities of the graphics card so a macbook pro would be a better bet. I don't think the macbook is even listed as a compatible computer (it wasn't, I don't know if that has changed).

You'll also be wanting lots of RAM!

The 2GB of Ram is a must for it, that and a 17 inch MacBook Pro and your sorted.
