Hello everyone,
I've got one of the 15" 2.33 C2D models...about 6 months old...and it's a great system, no doubt about it, but I've been cringing over some of the upgrades in the new Santa Rosa models.
First of all, I am a gamer, Not a hardcore gamer, but a gamer nontheless, and I am going crazy over these new DirectX 10 cards in the new MBPs. A lot of games I'm looking forward to in the next year or so will require DX10, and having the hardware support would be awesome.
The new screen...I'm not in dire need of, but it would be nice. The .7 ghz increase in processor speed would be nice I suppose.
But the problem is reselling the MBP. Looking at maybe 2000 tops, and considering it feels like yesterday that I paid 2850 for the notebook + apple care, I'm not sure if it's worth taking the ~850 dollar hit to get the newer model.
So did anyone sell their MBP for the newer models? Was it worth it?
