At home: self-built Linux box
On the go: 13" MacBook Pro (mid 2009). It's been a great machine, but is finally starting to show some age. I'm looking into upgrading to something new soon.
- twp 13y agoMacBook Pro mid-2009 user here. 17" high-res screen awesome for coding. Recently upgraded to 8GB RAM & 256GB SSD using off-the shelf components. Works well, but suspect that four year old machine will need to be replaced in the next two years. 2.8GHz Core 2 Duo starting to feel slow. Expect to change in the next two years, but currently missing a compelling reason to do so.
- zachlatta 13y agoHow is the SSD? My biggest issue is with the 2.26 GHz Core 2 Duo CPU. CPU usage goes up to 80% while using Google Hangouts.
