[QUOTE="XJ-linux, post: 1399035, member: 33722"] I've done the yearly thing for a while now. My latest was a non-backlit keyboard MBA to a backlit-keyboard MBA. Curently, there's nothing new to upgrade to in the MBA arena. It's kind of a bummer because if you go too long you get less back selling your current hardware. Such is life. Anyhow, the idea is to spend out of pocket a few hundred dollars every year and always have the latest hardware -vs- spending north of a thousand every 3 or 4 years and having hardware that is a generation or two behind what is optimal for current peripherals, OS's and applications for a chunk of those 3-4 years. Most of the time, I can cough up a few hundred at will -vs- budgeting for $1500 at once. That's the theory anyhow... [/QUOTE]
