I came this close to buying a 27" Apple display to
compliment my 27" iMac.
However, I thought that money might be put to better
use on a new Macbook Pro.
My current 17" Macbook Pro is not particularly old. It
was bought in 2009, and is a 2.8GHZ Duo core.
I do a lot of video editing on the laptop using iMovie
and surprisingly, the Macbook keeps up with it, though
you can tell that it's straining to do so.
I am fascinated with i7 technology since my iMac has
it and I can throw anything at it without any kind of
performance strain.
Sooooooo.....
I am looking to buy a 2011 Macbook Pro either in July
when Lion is released -or- wait it out till early next year
when the next refresh happens.
Anyone have any insight into what may happen with the
next refresh that I would benefit from?
A small bump in speed would not bother me. A total
redesign, on the other hand, might. Retina display is
also being rumored.
