- They're both good choices, the 230 is a little faster, but the real
- question is do you want the internal hard drive to come along when you
- pick up you mac and go, and do you need the video and other ports on
- the rode? For me the answer is no. At the lab I don't have a color
- monitor, and if I did I'd probably get a second $300 mini dock (yes
- academic), and I can do all my file transfering via appletalk. Still
- it's really a preference call, depends on what you want the machine
- to do...
