In terms of speed, there is no noticable difference, although the SE is supposed to be a bit faster. The keyboard of the SE is much nicer, especially the extended keyboard if you intend to run QuicKeys or some other macro package. The function keys become quite useful here. Also, having two internal disk drives is nice (for those of us too broke to get a hard disk) especially if you plan to move your Mac a lot, as I do between school and home. I personally recommend the SE; however, if the Plus keyboard doesn't bother you and if you don't mind an external disk drive, then go ahead and get a Plus. Tony Lalli Carnegie Mellon University
