That's what I'm sporting and trying to sell it to get a new unibody, but if i can't, I don't think it's too much of a burden to live with this machine, it's still quite nice
I'm very happy with my classic MBP actually. I think a unibody 15" MBP would be a downgrade in terms of screen and keyboard quality.
I couldn't stand the reflections on my Macbook Air, and that wasn't nearly as bad as the new glass screens. A screen is something I'm going to be looking at for most of the day so I'm not making any compromises here.
I'm not too fond of chiclet keyboards either, although I'm sure they're cheaper for Apple to manufacture.
I prefer the classic design, it's timeless. The unibody with the huge black bezel and black keyboard looks too much like a PC notebook.
I'd lose an ExpressCard slot and a FireWire port, which I do use. (FW800 for networking and FW400 for external HDDs).
I'd have to purchase and carry around an extra adapter to use the DVI out, which I use daily.
I would love to upgrade. I was actually eagerly waiting cash-in-hand. But I won't until Apple gives me something worthy of upgrading to.
is another thread of this nature really necessary?
