DrDrrae Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 And they're probably going to be updated late this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+jamesyfx Subscriber² Posted January 11, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted January 11, 2010 And they're probably going to be updated late this month. Just like PC's, you mean? Apple only have a few products, so people notice it more when they refresh their range. They don't depreciate as much as PC's do either, so it's not like your money is being wasted. Resale value is still very high for older models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew S. Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 I used to use a Mac years ago in school (my school never had and windows pc's till a teacher one day brought in his IBM Aptiva LOL!) I do plan on running Windows on it too, but I'm generally able to use any OS without fuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurë Veteran Posted January 11, 2010 Veteran Share Posted January 11, 2010 Well the MacBooks have been updated since I bought mine. It still works just great, does exactly what I need it to. Buying a computer that suits your computing needs = win. Buying a computer to have the latest/greatest tech = destined to perpetually torture yourself.

D!ABOL!C Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I just placed my order for my first MacBook :) Cool deal man, welcome to the party! Which one did you get the regular or the Pro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew S. Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 ^ I believe I got the MacBook ;) I bought it because I need a Notebook as my Netbook wasn't cutting it. Now I just gotta convince the warehouse where I work at to let me in with it lol (and I should offer to redo their website, it isn't Halloween anymore...) Now how well does OS X network with Windows 7 x64? My Windows desktop is still where I store all my files so I needs to know ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resale value is still very high for older models. I know that but there's a difference between buying a product near the beginning of it's life, and buying a product less than a month from when it's likely to be updated. Dell, HP, Asus, Sony, etc. don't usually hold a press conference when they're going to release new or update old products so it's harder to time when a good time to buy is as well.

See i didn't know there was gonna be a product refresh this month (nor do I actually care). This is shocking to say the least. How long have you know about your little problem. :pj/k. Congratulations. Hahah my desktop tower was the "little big problem" at times. It just isn't as portable as it used to be... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
