Should I buy a MacBook pro13?

**rivryan** · 07-28-2010, 07:56 AM

I'm thinking about getting the most expensive MacBook pro with duo core and 2.66 ghz and 320 gb. How does that compete with other laptops out there? I have 1500 to spend. Also when do you suppose rh new MacBook line will come out? (such as 13 inch getting i3 or i5 or i7)? Thanks!I want to get MacBook asap bit I don't want a newer version of it coming out the moment after I buy it

MacBook Pros with the i5 and i7 are already out.

specifically though a 13 inch macbook, will it ever come out with i5 or i7? becaue i dont want to buy one next week (with duo core) and then a month later macbook 13 inch is released with i5/i7 processors

Likely.

Apple generally updates their laptops at least once a year.. sometimes twice. You can't avoid it... so just buy what's out and be happy with it

Guess I'm going with a Dell studio 14 :/ i7 processor

When they came out with thier new line I weighed my needs and found that the 13in would do the job. There are MANY times though that I wish I had more screen room. Other than that I am happy with my choice. The beautiful thing about these is that they hold their value so well. When they do upgrade the 13in I will be able to sell this one and move on up for a small bit. JMHO

I am buying the 17" since I kind of develop and edit videos that takes the graphic card memory, needs fast processor, etc.
