I am looking at upgrading my 2007 macbook (2.0, 2gb, 250gb) sometime soonish. My main complaints with my current machine are: its getting sluggish and losing compatibility (both possibly fixable with SL upgrade), my screen is and always has been horrible both in quality and I want more resolution, and my hard drive is too small for my media library (mostly pictures and music).
Looking at the 2013 rMPB options, I have to spend $1800 for the highest spec 13" to get more than 256gb of internal storage this seems ridiculous. I do not need the speed of an ssd and would prefer a large capacity HD, is there any chance HDs will be available to put in the rMBPs anytime soon or would I still be paying a slightly less high price for a big SSD in a few months?
I am not a power user, mostly internet, music with some office type work and light picture editing. I value screen quality and space very highly and speed boosts are pretty marginal for my usage. Is or will their be a reasonably priced new apple solution for me, or do I need to go the used 15" route?
