Hi all,
I am a student with little budget.
I bought this MBP 13" --im typing on it now--in August 2009, when I just got a fellowship.
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro5,5
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.53 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 3 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
So anyway,
this MBP had been working great for the past four years++.
...but it gets old, i think.
It is easily to get very hot...then, it becomes sooooo slow.
I also notice that the speaker isnt working properly, the sound it makes...it s not clean (?) --sorry English is not my first language, i couldnt express myself better.
The trackpad also, cannot be clicked, but it s not essential, since it still could properly recognize multitouch gesture.
Would you mind to give me advice,
should I repair it? if so, how much does it cost, approximately? I live in Tokyo, there are several Apple Store here. Is the cost standard, worldwide?
will it be cheaper to buy new one? (MBP, not MBA...i dont like the display)
...and
I couldnt do any DIY repair,
I most likely ruin this faithful companion of mine if I try to do so.
Any advice is welcomed.
Thanks
