Hi!
I'm in a big dilemma right now.
I'm pretty tight on budget but my iMac started being kinda slow, I can't multitask through heavier software like Adobe and Logic Pro which I use a lot.
Also my wireless mighty mouse is becoming a pain and the scrolling ball barely works anymore no matter what I do to fix it.
My iMac specs are:
24" Aluminum (mid 2008)
2.8Ghz C2D Processor
2GB Ram
320GB Harddrive
1.5TB External hard drive (so no problems with storage whatsoever).
My question is, since I'm pretty tight on budget, should I upgrade the RAM to 4GB + buy a new mouse (which should be like $200)? or should I wait another 6 months (the least) as I am right now and just buy a brand new 27" iMac?
It's just that I'm not sure when my iMac will be ready to retire, I still think it's in great shape, just needs an upgrade.
Thanks
