The track pad is screwy, now. :sad: though I did spill water on it. I have to take it to the Mac store and see if they can do anything about it. DH won't let me upgrade until it's ABSOLUTELY necessary. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-macbook#post-1654764 Fri, 23 May 2014 10:20:02 +0000 rachiecakes 1654764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2011<br /> Time for a new one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-macbook#post-1654748 Fri, 23 May 2014 10:16:48 +0000 hellocupcake 1654748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My MacBook Pro is a few days old :) we got it Tuesday.

I got mine in 2008. It works good, but I've had to replace the battery because it wouldn't hold a charge, and there are a few things that I can't use because the OS is too old. We really need to upgrade, but I'm pretty sure I can't live without a mac and it's not in the budget right now. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-macbook#post-1654589 Fri, 23 May 2014 09:28:16 +0000 BSB 1654589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BananaPancakes: I put more memory in my MacBook and it made it so much quicker. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-macbook#post-1654584 Fri, 23 May 2014 09:27:22 +0000 BSB 1654584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Still using mine and I bought it in 2007.</p> <p>DH's MacBook is 2-3 years old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-macbook#post-1654544 Fri, 23 May 2014 09:12:37 +0000 snowjewelz 1654544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine's like the vintage white one haha; I definitely have had it for 4+ years!

It is a hand me down from my husband but I love it. Thankfully the biggest issue at this point is it takes forever to start back up if you let the battery die. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-macbook#post-1654169 Fri, 23 May 2014 06:21:17 +0000 chopsuey 1654169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Less than a year old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-macbook#post-1654101 Fri, 23 May 2014 05:08:58 +0000 BananaPancakes 1654101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got mine the year I graduated college, so 2006. It needs a new battery, has software that doesn't support anything, and is slow as molasses, but it does work. My husband's is from 2008, and works perfectly still, though it does need upgraded software. We keep our desktop Mac in the most upgraded/ working condition since it's our iPhones' lifeline. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-is-your-macbook#post-1654097 Fri, 23 May 2014 05:05:28 +0000 lamariniere 1654097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine is from 2010.
