Buying a Macbook Pro

Nov 22, 2009 4:27AM PST

I was interested in buying a 13 inch laptop and the Macbook Pro looks like a great product. My question is, is it worth it for me to buy it now, or will an updated version be coming out any time soon?

Thanks,
Aaron

You bet.

But how soon is soon? We know that Apple updates every few months (certainly under a year.) This seems to rankle many but Apple MUST do this or be faced with being left behind.

Try this. Can you do without it? Then delay the purchase.

I think they will probably update the 13" and 15" models next spring or early summer.
