Hey guys, I have a gear related question for which I could use some input.
I have been producing with a mid-2010 macbook pro (2.4 ghz, 250gb HDD, 4gb RAM) for the past 6 years and have just purchased my sister's mid-2012 macbook pro (2.5 ghz, 500gb HDD, 4gb RAM) for $400 thinking since it is slightly upgraded version of mine that it might be worth making my primary production laptop. Also I am running out of HDD space on my original so I thought this might be a good option for me. But now I am having second thoughts.
Should I:
Upgrade newer laptop to SSD and upgrade RAM
Sell newer one for a slight profit, use money to upgrade old laptop SSD and RAM
Sell both and spend a bit getting a better, newer laptop.
I realize this might seem more like a financial question. Really I am wondering how out of date these technologies are, and if I invest in upgrading the older laptops, how soon they are likely to be technologically obsolete. Any help would be much appreciated!!
