If you're managing at the moment using Adobe CS, and everything else is okay, you might want to try to upgrad the HD to an SSD and maxed out the RAM?
Muppetteer-
Is that possible on something as old as my mac?
As it stands now, it's slow to start up and struggles with multiple windows being open if they are acccessing big files. I had the battery replaced at apple a few years ago as that did the bulging trick, and in the last little bit, battery life has been getting worse again. Not sure if spending more money on it is the answer or whether to cut my losses and start afresh. I can't really complain as it's lasted way longer than the equivilent PC would have done at the time.
Thanks for the tips @chrisbmx116 Your macbook sounds like something that would be suitable but I'm in Canada so location along with the exchange rate might be against us!

Need to replace my decrepit (nearly 10 year old) unibody macbook. I've never kept up to date with the changing specs of mac's when I've had them but it seems like everything uses SSD instead of HDD and thats meant that for the price, I'd be getting less space. My current unibody has a 250gb HDD but I remember that a decent chunk of this was taken up by the OS. Since the switch to SSD, are they more efficient with the way they use space?
Also has anybody got any pointers on where there sweet spot is for macbooks now? I just need something to use for Adobe CS and general graphics stuff.
As you can tell by my line of questioning, I know not a lot when it comes to computers.
