5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
It’s clear we’re once again in transition mode at Apple. These new notebook designs will likely last another few years, and the “true” models to buy will be the “version 2” designs due this time next year. Ah, Apple. It’s so hard to know when to buy, especially if you already have a computer that’s powerful enough for whatever you’re doing. Sure, Apple models are always on sale, so anyone that needs one can go and buy one right now. But in these challenging economic times, one needs to be careful with one’s money, and you’ll get a better deal with fewer bugs and even Mac OS X 10.6.x this time next year. I say 10.6.x because by the time the next MacBooks appear, we should hopefully be beyond the “raw” 10.6, and well into 10.6.2 or even 3, with those irksome and always present initial bugs bitten in the butt. Hopefully. Another bonus? Next year Intel's successor to the Core 2 Duo, the "i7" range of chips will be all the rage, and unless Apple will have to offer these new processors, too. So, Unless you’re really desperate for a new Mac, hang onto what you’ve got and get more value out of it, and wait until the next models! |
