Hello chaps,
I'm currently rocking a mid 2009 MBP with SSD and 8gb RAM. It's been a right trooper of a machine but is beginning to creak under the strain of things. Web pages are slow to load sometimes and video playback really can be a bit slow at times - even 1080p it struggles with.
However, it was a cracking machine and easily upgradeable which I believe the newer machines are not. I've got the chance to buy a new mid 2018 512gb MBP and am tempted. But is this release a 'good' MBP? I know some years of MBP are looked on very favourably and some not.
I'm a casual user but really the MBP line doesn't actually look like they're really for the Pro user in particular.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Cheers
