I promise, final set of questions!!
1) I was going to go with a black 2.0Ghz, 2Gig Ram, 120GB HDD. But then I read on this forum that the black actually feels cheaper, and someone mentioned fingerprints. The white still looks nice so I'll go with the white. But now that I'm going white, I can choose between 1.83 and 2.0 processor speeds. Question: is there a sharp difference (browsing, moderate gaming (nothing too heavy), multi-tasking, etc)? Keep in mind, I'll have 2GB or 1.5GB Ram.
2) THat's as far as upgrades go unfortunately (macbooks really don't leave too much choice, do they?). What about accessories? Anything that you would recommend?

I don't think you'll find too much noticeable difference in speed between the two CPU's.
As far as accessories, don't need too much really...... get a nice case that will protect it, maybe get that Marware Protection pack which protects the wrist rests and also provides a sort of nice suede-like covering to rest your wrists on. -
the wrist rest thingy doesn't have great reviews though...
-
The difference between those two CPUs is really more or less negligible.
As far as accessories go, I'd recommend buying an adapter for connecting an external monitor if you ever plan on doing that - it's something that you'd want to get off Apple anyway if you were to ever need one down the road. Of course, the Macbook uses mini-dvi so you'd have to get two if you want to be able to connect to both dvi and vga monitors.
Other than that, nothing in particular pops to mind offhand.
I'll add that in my opinion the white Macbook feels cheaper than the black one. -
the obvious slight slight speed difference, and 2MB v. 4MB cache.
Is it worth the money? :dunno
Big Difference between 1.83Ghz and 2.0Ghz PBs?
