Hello all,
I'd really appreciate your advice. I have a 2006 MacBook running Tiger 10.4.11. The battery died a while back so I have to plug it in all the time, and it can't upgrade to the latest iTunes without Leopard/Snow Leopard so I haven't been able to update my iPhone. Other than that it's still working fine and I really love it.
So...my phone contract expires in December and I'd like to upgrade to the iPhone 4 (3GS atm) but I can't with this computer. This is also my last year in education so from June I won't be able to take advantage of the education discount. Since I'm still studying this year I'll probably get most benefit from having a computer that is actually portable! I've also heard that there will be a complete revamp of the MacBook Pros in 2012 but I don't know when.
My dilemma is whether to:
- buy the Snow Leopard upgrade and maybe a new battery to give my MacBook a new lease of life (prob about £100 which will be a waste if I get a Pro in Jan or something)
- get a Pro now
- do neither and wait until the new Pro comes out in 2012 before upgrading my phone.
Does anyone have any advice? Thanks!
