Well, the thing is there is the restocking fee, I think it's either 10 or 15%. But I just picked up a refurb and I couldn't be happier. It's a 2.0 C2D, with a superdrive and 120GB HD. I bought it about two weeks after the Santa Rosa Macbooks came out, and I was really considering going that route but people were reporting issues with the keyboard, display, etc and I realized the upgrades weren't going to benefit me that much and I should save some $$$ getting the refurb. And then I heard about the firewire chips.

So I would say if you didn't buy already to go for a refurb, but since you did I'd say just keep it. Even though the firewire chip set is a big deal to us I don't think it is for 90% of Macbook owners, and the newest version will always have the better resale. And you maybe totally cool with your setup.
