Hi there,
I use a MacBook Pro, purchased second hand in 2014. The screen keep blacking out, if the lid has been down for any length of time at all - 2 mins or 2 days.
When I start the laptop it goes to black screen and I have to reboot, sometimes for a good 10 or so times before it recovers. Today I used the laptop with the screen slanted downwards slightly (less than 90 degrees, but only slightly - probably around 80 degrees).
The laptop can be fairly slow but I think it could probably be cleaned out (how?) to make it work faster.
I have the money to buy something decent, and I work from home on my laptop full time, so I do need something good and I have the money to buy something that does the job (up to and over £2,000 to get a 27 inch iMac).
I'm just wondering if this is a silly thing to do just because of black screen?

My MacBook Pro (2012ish) keeps getting a black screen - is it on its way out?
