[QUOTE="daft, post: 1599846, member: 331409"] Hello! I have a pretty beat up Macbook Pro 13-inch from mid 2010. The battery is bloated and has expanded so much that the aluminium chassis has been bent out [URL="http://i.imgur.com/OLziiUc.jpg"]as seen here[/URL] . So this puts a significant dent in the performance. I am wondering how much I could improve the performance of this macbook and would it really be worth it? Getting a new battery, more ram and a SSD-drive. The plan is to use this as my work computer, mainly running fotostation, Adobe Bridge, Photoshop and Final Cut X. The performance right now is just ok, i can handle a couple of raw-files at the same time without the macbook suffering too much, but editing video is much harder on the machine. Would the upgrade be worth it, or would I just be throwing money out the window? [/QUOTE]
