Hi guys,
I need some advice from you all
I currently have MacBook Pro 15" Mid 2010 i5 2.53GHz (with AppleCare) model and I do not know if I should sell it and get me the new MacBook Air 13". Here is my dilemma:
Basically I can sell this MacBook Pro and get the mentioned MBA without paying a dime. Display size is not an issue, since most of the stuff I do is surfing the web, email and writing essays. I do have an external display that I can use from time to time, so this is fine.
BUT, I do play Counter-Strike 1.6 sometimes. I need a laptop that can run the game at 100fps in Windows and this is why I am considering sticking with my machine, since I do not know how MacBook Air will do. Basically CS 1.6 is like 10y old game that is based on Unreal engine (no huge graphic effects or such) so I am not sure how it will work.
It would be awesome to get that mobility factor, especially since I move my computer few days every week around. And also I think it would be wise to do an upgrade now instead of waiting for next gen MacBook Pro because the value of my machine will only drop over time (I believe it would be easier to sell MacBook Air in 1year than this MacBook Pro).
What would you do?
