From a developer's point of view, is it worth at current to buy a used Macbook Pro Unibody(2009, 13", 256SSD, 8GB RAM)? I have never worked with Mac but i have really bored of Windows/Linux, because i can't really make any work out of them, plus that the majority of the developers out there works with them.<p>What you think?
I had a brand new 2009 MBP around the time of its release in order to work on some software for several weeks.<p>If you intend to play games or do very CPU intensive things, you may be disappointed. If you're doing typical developer tasks, you'll be fine. Big compiles will probably be slow, but outside of that, I don't see any problems.<p>The 2009 17" MBP, outside of the crippled keyboard was the best laptop experience I've had.
I still do a lot of decent work on a non-unibody MBP from 2008, so I think a 2009 model would still have some utility, but I would consider the price carefully - it might be more worth it to buy a newer MB air or something, knowing you'll get a few more years out of it.
