Re: 2.0 or 2.4 Ghz ?
My thinking goes like this. You can upgrade the memory yourself and the prices will only drop. The Processor is soldered to the board and not field replaceable. The higher clocked processor may add some resale value down the road. I would say go for the processor depending on the price differance.

Re: 2.0 or 2.4 Ghz ?
+1 for needing a Firewire hard drive. Absolutely needed unless you are only doing MIDI stuff. Anytime you use digital audio, you should (read as "must") use a physically second hard drive.

Re: 2.0 or 2.4 Ghz ?
Mmmmm... and an USB 2.0 HD isn't faster than a Firewire (the same HD) ?
