Giving serious consideration to buying a Macbook when I get my tax rebate and before I stop being a student.
Currently using a late 2008 24" imac so now out of warranty. Had a logic board failure a week or so out of warranty and they covered it but if anything goes now I'll be buggered so the warranty of a new macbook is quite attractive.
Fastest Macbook Pro is 2.4ghz but quadcore, my current imac is 3.06 ghz but only dual core. Think I'll notice things like websites loading, photoshop and lightroom etc being slower on the MBP or would it maybe even be faster given it's quadcore?
I'd like to keep the imac as well but think I might have to sell it to free up some cash if I spend my whole tax rebate plus some so anyone gone from imac to macbook and can tell me how they found it?
Anyone know how prices in Japan/Korea compare to here? If I get my finger out with my TEFL then I'll be looking for jobs out there for after summer so macbook would be handy as I won't be taking imac with me :( but maybe better waiting till I'm out there to buy.
