Hey,
Long time lurker, first time poster! Just in need of a few opinions if im honest. Posted this in the Macbook Pro section but thought this would be more appropriate seen as though you use 'em.
Currently have a late 2008 13" MBP and this year I was adamant to get the newest machine. But i'm now doubting myself.
I do a lot of design work, both print and web, and I actually do most of it on a 24" iMac purely because I prefer the screen real estate. I don't use my 13" MBP to its full potential because of this.
I was going to grab a new retina MBP, but now i'm wondering if it'd be better grabbing a 13" Air and hooking it up to a thunderbolt display for when i'm at home. These could both come with me when I eventually move out too, so I wouldn't be stuck with just a notebook. Trying to think ahead thats all.
What would you guys do in my shoes? and side question, would an Air handle CS well enough?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Also, I know these seem like a different kettle of fish in regards to power etc, but the reason for a retina would purely be because it's the newest thing out, and not because I need to extra power.
