Hello @all,
since one month i have this question all day and unfortunately i can't decide what to purchase.
I work with Ableton Live on a MBP 15" 2007 and since i have used a 27" iMac at work i'm in love with this screensize. Secondly i play WoW...sometimes for three or four hours but not longer. I've noted that the 27" iMac i3 + 8GB fit my needs for Ableton and WoW. On the other side i need portability, because i'm a software engineer and so i travel a lot. The pro of the iMac 27" i3 is: it's really silent when i play (had tested WoW between christmas holidays), i have a lot of screen space for Ableton Live and Xcode. Has someone some infos about Ableton Live on a MacBook Air??? (MBA 13" + 128GB SSD + 4GB RAM) Is it possible to play WoW on it?
The other opportunity is purchasing a MBP 15" and an Apple Cinema Display 27". Unfortunately the MBP will be very hot when gaming, especially if its connected to a Cinema Display. Is someone here, who plays WoW on an 27" Cinema Display? Do you played windowed or fullscreen? The pro of the MBP 15" is, that i have all my data in one system.
What to do? Both ways are possible for me... Opinions?
Thanks in advance,
