Hi all, new to the forums.
I am about to get a new school computer for my last semester. I am having too much of a hard time deciding between the MBA or rMBP.
What I plan on doing with the machine:
-programming (CSc major)
-web dev
-league of legends (from time to time), as well as various games
-watch tv, video, movies, etc.
What I am trying to decide between:
MBA 13in ($1300):
-1.4 GHz i5
-8 gb ram
-256 SSD
rMBP 13in ($1500):
-2.6 GHz i5
-8 gb ram
-256 ssd
So, is it worth going for the rMBP? I pay an extra $200 for retina display and a better CPU. What is your take?
Thank you!
