I'm in the market for a new MacBook Pro, and am trying to decide between a 13" and a 15". If I get the 13", I'll be able to afford to upgrade to a SSD, but if I go with the 15", I'll have to go with the base model. I mostly record 1 or 2 tracks at a time live, with VSTs or other audio tracks added later, rarely more than 16 total; I also will be using this for other typical computer applications. In addition, I do have an external monitor, so the size of the screen isn't a primary issue. I also have some external hard drives, both USB and Firewire, as well as a Firewire audio intereface.
Do the advantages gained by going SSD outweigh those of the i5 processor, or vice versa? Thanks in advance.
[edit: yes, I mean MacBook, not MadBook... ]
