I will up the RAM to 1GB anyway, but will I see much difference in performance if I max it out to 2GB...

If you're going to run Parallels, buy as much memory as you can afford.

Seems like a no-brainer unless I decide I really want the superdrive - the top spec model with 2GB Apple RAM and the standard 80GB hard drive is AU$1644 while speccing the lower end model with 2GB Apple RAM and the 80GB hard drive upgrade costs AU$1424 - $220 just for a slightly faster processor and a DVD burner.

An external firewire DVD burner would probably be faster anyway.

(I know that 3rd party RAM is cheaper, this is just to compare price differences).
