    Every 5-7 years. Man, just did the SSD upgrade and it's tits! Shit boots in seconds, apps just snap open.

    So while the physical processor might stay the same in terms of speed, my 2yo 8 core will last another 3-5years with certain upgrades till fast sandy beach 12cores with SSD and thunderbolt tech are the norm.

    My first Mac was a 9600 pro tower, 233mhz. Sonnet processor upgrade to 533mhz, 10,000 rpm SCSI HD Raid setup, still runs actually. Haha, regardless... That think got me through college and years of work to follow.
