How Long Do You Expect Your Macs to Last?
04.08.09

How elongated should a Mac last? Mac360’s Alexis Kayhill posed the question recently , and it got me evaluation on the topic, especially since Alexis framed her column around the affair of a co-worker who had purchased a new unibody MacBook (on her recommendation) only to have Apple upgrade the 13″ unibody to Pro standing with feature enhancement and a lower price a few months later.
I’m in the same vessel, having also bought a unibody MacBook last February. Alexis says her compeer “got burned,” though I think that’s a bit splenetic. I don’t feel “burned” at all — more like a bit foiled that I didn’t wait four more months, but you can drive yourself nuts approve of-guessing such things. I love the MacBook, and am already becoming convinced that it’s usual to be one of my all-time favorite Macs. I just wish it had a FireWire mooring, which the new 13″ MacBook Pro does have.
