Note that this is only a recommendation if you're perfectly happy chugging along on that OS X Tiger-running PowerBook G4 from 2004, don't let me stop you. I've worked out a decision path below that should help guide you in your choice.
SHOULD I BUY A 2006 MACBOOK PRO UPGRADE
Several factors are complicating my decision to upgrade or replace my current Mac, and these are pretty common questions that every Mac owner is going to have to answer for themselves eventually.
I've got a choice between throwing in another 2 GB of RAM and replacing my dog slow HDD with a much zippier SSD, or just ditching my current Mac altogether and replacing it with a current MacBook Air.
SHOULD I BUY A 2006 MACBOOK PRO PRO
Installing OS X Lion on my Early 2008 MacBook Pro has made it clear my hardware isn't humming along the way it used to. I'm facing that "upgrade or buy new" question myself right now. In fact, I used to be one of those people my first Mac was a 1998 PowerBook G3 that I bought used in 2004 and used until 2007. It's a lot easier to justify replacing some $500 Dell econobox after a few years, since it's probably got one foot in the grave by that point anyway, but I've known people who happily trundle along on Mac hardware that's nearly a decade old. In a lot of cases, owning a Mac can complicate this answer simply because the darned things are so long-lived. "Should I upgrade the Mac I have or buy a new one?" It's a question that faces every one of us at some point, and it's not always easy to answer.
