Hello! I'm new to the MacRumors forums.
I'm torn between getting the iMac 27" + MacBook Air 13" or the retina MacBook Pro 15" + MacBook Air 11", all with the latest Haswell chip.
Primarily, one Mac (iMac or rMBP) will stay at home, while the MBA will be the portable one. I narrowed down to these choices as I like the retina display of the MBP, but I also like the computing power and large screen estate of the iMac.
The iMac's specs will be 3.4 GHz i5, 16GB RAM, 512 GB PCI-e flash, and standard NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M with 2GB of video memory. Meanwhile, the rMBP's specs will be 2.3 GHz i7, 16GB RAM, 512 GB PCI-e flash, and Intel Iris Pro + NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M with 2GB of video memory.
For the MacBook Air, it will be 13" or 11", base models with 1.3GHz i5, 4GB RAM, and 128GB PCI-e flash.
Which is the better setup to get? I will appreciate all replies.
