Is this a dodgy time to buy a Macbook? The rumour mill of mac fans suggests that the display on Apple laptops is to become LED (wassat when it's at home?) and the OS is def changing soon.
Apparently they may change the hardware in June.

    Apple will have a roadmap of updates/new models that will give a rough picture of what they're planning. Noidea what this is as I'm not a fan of Macs and their expanding betteries!

    LED backlit macs are on their way apparently, it's just a more efficient way of lighting an LCD monitor, using.. you guessed it... LEDs! Saves on battery life etc. lots of PCs already have them, I've got a sony vaio, and withn 5 months there was a newer/faster, but ultimatly more expensive model with LED out!

    The fact rumours are circling usually means "older" macbooks will start dropping in price as vendors ready themselves for new models. So it's good from a money saving point of view, but bad from an 'i want the newest technology stance!!!!1'.
