First off, the bait-and-switch would piss me off to no end. To the point where I doubt I'd buy from them. But that is just me.
I think the biggest difference you would see between the 2.0 and the 2.4 isn't necessarily the processor, but the memory. For $30 the processor jump isn't really all that much between a 2.0 and a 2.4. If you were running them side-by-side, I doubt you'd see too much of a difference. Think an S with bolt-ons compared to a stock S.
The big difference here is the memory. Going from 1GB to 2GB is huge. Memory means a lot more than processor speed nowadays, from what I've encountered.

MANY THANKS to you and Ellen
My IT guy said the same thing, 2.0, 2/160 is superior to 2.4, 1/80
I keep looking
Mac of all trades and Teksale still seem to be the best resellers
And I love Gainsaver :sarcasm: take a $484 unit and move it from 2.26, 1/20 to 2.26, 2/120 and the price doubles......

If you went PC you could even get carbon fiber shells
