Question

Should I now buy macbook pro 13 2009? I want to put an ssd on it, increase the RAM, change the battery if necessary. Is such a solution relevant now, and if so, how long will it last?

Answer 1

I think not, how much RAM is there? 4GB? It's not enough now.

Answer 2

At the moment, there is no reason to buy a macbook, especially if you do not need representativeness (a huge number of people still consider owning expensive macs a sign of wealth).
What does 'for the web' mean? open pages on the Internet, watch cartoons ?, any tablet (choose with a keyboard-docking station) solves this problem, with a price much less.
If you work as a programmer or layout designer, then the mac is all the more unsuitable for you.
If you work as a designer, then I can’t advise, I just don’t know, and I don’t want to repeat other people’s misconceptions.

Answer 3

Watching what to do.
I have a friend who is a successful web programmer.
But he spends all his money on trips around the world.
Clings on everything except travel.
He has one normal computer.
But the second is guano.
And so he works for days when his wife (she is a photographer, she needs a powerful computer for photo processing) urgently needs to complete an order - on her second slowest one.
And he doesn't complain. And there is not even 1 G, it seems.
On trips, he takes with him the most budgetary slowest netbook. And it works with him.
It is quite possible.
4 G is quite a lot.
The question is what are you going to do.
If you don't draw in Photoshop, if you don't use IDEA, and your main working tool for development is Sublime, vim, etc., nothing will slow you down.

Answer 4

better to take macbook pro mid 2012 - the last macbook that can be upgraded without crap - 16 GB and SSD. In it, the percentage and vidyaha are newer / more powerful.
