my apple family is my soggy...would like either a 27" iMac with a SSD or rMBP maybe in a year or two i can get a rMBP

I would definitely go with the iPad Mini and 13 inch Retina. Best combo for you imo

If I can help it, after using a retina iPhone and iPad, I would never go retina-less again. The screens are just a joy to use.
So I recommend you get an iPhone 5 and 13" RMBP and wait until next year when Apple puts a retina display in the iPad mini. I do love my iMac, but I wouldn't see the point if you're only going to get the 21.5". The internals aren't much better than the RMBP. Get the laptop, and an external monitor if you need the screen space. But you can just set the RMBP to display more, and you probably won't need it

My setup is 13" MBA, iPhone 5, ipad mini. It works great for me.

No poll option for me.

Android phone, ipad3, macbook pro. Best combo for me

We are an all apple family, but our setup is a bit different then most I would assume.

2 Iphones - one for the wife and one for me
1 Ipad 3 - This is used for browsing the web, cooking, and other casual uses.
1 Mac Mini - This is our digital hub and my wife's work computer.

Along with monitor, mouse, keyboard, Ipad accessories, speaker system, and Iphone accessories we are in for less then $2000 for the entire setup.

We have the same setup. We both also have older windows laptops if we need portability.

Once the study is re-done in my apartment I may purchase a 27" iMac since I'm looking to do some video editing.

really tough call b.c it depends on the person. I personally would want the iphone 5 ---mini----Air. I have zero need for a desktop or high end laptop.

Precisely! It's very personal, each of us having unique usage scenarios.

The best way to determine what one's needs are is to write down how you use what you currently have. What further needs (if any) you have, and then what you may desire "just for fun".

Once you've got it listed out, write pros and cons of each of your current devices, the new ones you are considering, etc. You've got to be willing to do the work if you want a good outcome.

Since that post, I don't even have a Laptop now. Ipad 4---mini----iPhone 5. Works perfect for me
