Hello folks,
New to the site and the Mac here. I've finally decided to make the switch, and I've saved up about $2000 to buy a MacBook Pro.
Having the money in the bank is making me itchy to go and buy my new baby. However, the delay of Leopard has me skeptical. So, I need some advice from people who know more than me.
I have some questions:
1) Does it make sense to buy hardware now? Are there new hardware upgrades coming soon (ie within the next 3-4 months)?
2) If I buy a new MacBook now, what kind of performance could I expect when I install Leopard?
3) I don't want to have to pay more to upgrade to newer versions of iLife and iWork in a few months. Does it make sense to wait?
Your advice, please. I'm restraining myself from buying now (instant gratification), but if there's compelling reason to wait, I will. Help!
Thanks,
Mike
