Ok so I have a late 2009 macbook unibody 2.26ghz. I have upgraded to 4gb of ram and a seagate 7200.4 500gb hd. my mac runs great. i use reason 4 right now to produce some music here and there. mainly dubstep and electronic music. anyways, right now while using reason 4, my mac runs it without a hiccup. when i get towards the end of the making of a song, sometimes my cpu cycles can be at about 50% per core give or take.

im about to upgrade to reason 5. now my question is, should i keep this macbook for a couple more years? do you think it will run reason 5 with no problem for the remaining few years? let me know what you think. my macbook is like 10 months old, but in very good condition id hate to have to get a new one this soon.
