Well after weeks of getting everything figured out and squared away I have figured out the $$ details and my father may be letting me go through with a purchase of a macbook. This is good news as I have been waiting for awhile now. But, I just don't know what to do now? There are LOTS of threads on here making it sound as if the new line of SR MB(P)'s will be out in a month or so. Many claim at WWDC they can see the new lines being released? This is also good news except now it makes me consider waiting to see what all happens? I would love to get one of the new SR MBP's but the thing is I really only have the funds to afford a MB not MBP. The MBP's are just too much for what I'm looking at getting. I only need a notebook to last me to college and then my freshman year in college I may get a new mac by then? I currently attend a boarding academy HS and am in the 10th grade. I want to become familiar with Macs now as I will want to know everything I can and be VERY familiar for when I head of to college.
My main question is this:
What exactly should I be thinking in this situation. I have a laptop right now that works fine and would hold me out for a bit. But, if the SR upgrades to the Macbooks will not be that significant than I don't think there is any point in waiting for SR. If someone can give me the COMPLETE breakdown of the Santa Rosa upgrade and how it will be that much better than I will consider waiting. But, if SR is not THAT big of an upgrade then I think I will pull the trigger and get a new MB in the next week or so. I just don't want to be kicking myself in June when they release the new SR MB's and I am missing out on something crucial. Do you see them doing something else to the MB's besides just the addition of SR? Would they consider a redesign or whole new features? All opinions are open for discussion. Even the ones of how lame I am for adding YET ANOTHER one of these threads. I am sorry to those that this bugs but I really need some takes on MY situation because using the search function for this kinda thing has not gotten me very much help. So sorry in advance.
Thanks,
Brandon
P.S.
Keep in Mind that I WILL NOT be able to afford a MBP probably so just give me the MB details plz. As much as I would love I don't think the MBP's are in my funds.
