I need to get a new laptop to use for uni, but my budget is not huge... Basically I am wondering if the following machine would still be worth buying in 2018:
Apple MacBook Pro 7,1/P8600/8GB Ram/1TBHDD+128GB SSD/320M/13"
As far as I can tell (please correct if I am wrong) this is a 2010 MacBook Pro, and is refurbished and comes with 2 year warranty. Will it work okay in 2018?
I have also found the following machine:
Apple MacBook Pro 9,2/i5 3210M/4GB Ram/320GB HDD/DVD-RW/13", which is newer and a bit more expensive, but has less memory...
So I am just wondering which of these two would someone with more knowledge on the subject advise buying? I can't afford any newer than these, I need it mostly for writing essays, presentations, editing music, editing video.. will either of these do the trick in 2018?
Thank you!
