What could be the benefit of buying the newest version vs old version MD760LL/A ?

Actually both the 2013 and 2014 use the Haswell chips. The 2014 model runs slightly faster (1.4 vs 1.3 and in boost mode 2.7 vs 2.6). 2014 battery life improvements were a result of OSX changes(mavericks vs mountain lion). The 2014 model price was reduced. If you go here: http://www.everymac.com/mac-identification/index-how-to-identify-my-mac.htmlyou can find more detailed info on these models as well as older models (other mac products as well).

All the network items like routers that I've bought from Amazon are the most current versions. No guarantees of course, but they move so much inventory I can't imagine they would still have old versions lying about.

I opened mine up after both of them died. They had old used drives from 2007 in them. So it's potluck if you get one you can depend on. I bought these thinking I was getting new stuff. They don't make it easy to crack open to find out the truth. They were Seagate & WD drives from 2007 so are good brands. But being used they could have been abused, or well used. I could have got 2007 drives for almost nothing if that's what I wanted.

As far as I can tell, there is no difference. All of the specs are identical - I thought maybe it was just an "updated" version. Hope this helps!

The newer versions are more complete with "new" roads added (such as newly built plats, etc); they are more complete. Other than that, everything else is the same (THANK GOD!) so if you're familiar with an older version, you won't have to re-learn anything. Sure wish Microsoft could do that with at least one version of Windows. :-)

there is no difference on versions. whatever you get you will use only the S/N. you have to download the current version (year) of the version you purchase. After that only thing to do is to activate. Enjoy it

The updates are free, the upgrade (I.e. LR 6) will not be free. You can use this version forever if you choose to!

I have the 62s and it works great. The description, log, and hint are there for each cache. When I had the 60csx I had to use the geocaching app on my phone in conjunction with it. The 62 can store a lot more caches and has a better interface to load new caches.

I can't say. I would not personally purchase an older version of the product. You're better off getting a license for the latest version. http://cimbura.com/tech/2013/10/18/filemaker-licensing-made-easy/

Windows 8 performs much better and is less likely to have damaged file system due to advanced security and data protection technology. I recommend using Classic Shell or StarDock (suck as Windowblinds--that is paid for software though but has really cool customization options) so you get that Windows 7 or XP feel to it. I think Classic Shell is quite old, believe it was somehow partially included in Windows 98, but don't remember. Just recall the familiarity of the name back then.

It is my understanding that upgrades are only for previous versions. I am fairly sure you can get an answer about this from the Filemaker site.

Hi Really depends on the age of your machine. This version is for system builders, meaning you'd have to wipe windows xp and install win7 fresh. This won't upgrade an existing windows installation. If your machine is older than 4 years, I'd suggest a new machine. The install took 15gb of my hard disk

Well there wasn't a version made in 2013, however this is the latest model yes. MD388LL/A released Oct 23, 2012.

There's a lot of discussion about the advantages of the old version in the Amazon user reviews of both versions. I bought the (more expensive) old version and am happy with it, but never tried the newer one for comparison.

This is the most recent model if you are looking for the traditional install. If you are seeking the most recent version then you would need to see CT (click tight) in the description.

Not in my opinion. I recently replaced the hard drive in a older 3.0 iMac. General I/O performance was greatly improved over typical hard drive speeds. Hope you have maxed out your RAM as well, because the combo of SSD and RAM work together to improve IO performance. Another added benefit is that if you buy a SATA 6Gb/s capable drive, when you do upgrade your computer, you will be able to use this drive with that computer at 6 Gb/s.s.

There probably isn't a need for the firmware upgrade - I couldn't find an explanations of what the update includes. The table works without it. So if yours is working and you don't notice anything unusual - than don't update. :)
