Hey guys,
I am in some kind of "dilemma", if you wanna call it this way.
Since May this year I am waiting for the new iMac, wife's approval already received for the iMac and I was very happy when it finally got announced.
Now I am still waiting until December and actually for sure one more months as Dubai is not gonna see any shipments until Jan. or maybe even Feb. 2013!
Now, the 27" iMac will be $ 1999.00, I would upgrade the processor to i7, the hard drive would be the Fusion Drive as I want a SSD, but the 768GB SSD will be way too expensive! And the last thing I would upgrade would be the 2GB graphics carsd. The RAM would be upgraded later to 32GB by myself.
I reckon the total price for the above will be $1999.00 + $ 300.00 (i7) + $ 400.00 (Fusion Drive) + $ 250.00 (2GB graphics) + $ 300.00 (32GB RAM myself/ NOT apple) = $ 3250.00
OR
Get the 13" MBA with 8GB RAM and 128 SSD for $ 1299.00, plus the new iMac 27" as it is for $1999.00. So total would be $3299.00.
What would you guys do?
I mostly use it for video editing (mainly for youtube the moment/ I have a carspotting channel and I am building my channel currently), photoshop, web, use it to watch Full HD 1080p videos and a bit of gaming once the iMac is here (nothing heavy).
I am planning on getting Apeture & CS6 and for the end of the year I want to launch my own website to support my youtube channel and vice versa!
The MBA would be for the living room and when going on vacation 1-2 year and the iMac for the bedroom.
Please help!
Thanks!
