I want to buy a refurbished 21" 2.7 2013 with 16G and Fusion Drive. My experience is that refurbished are as good as new and several hundred dollars less expensive. However, they go up on the Apple site quickly and usually disappear as quickly.
If I act now I can get a 2.9 (better graphics, but not my big concern) with 8G and a fusion drive for a great price. Using mostly internet, office stuff, and lightroom/elements for my photography I wonder if I would see much of a difference between the 8G and 16G.
I often shoot in RAW, but do not process multiple images at the same time. On the other hand, my camera takes 20MB pictures. I know the fusion drive will be zippier than my current 2008 24", but since I can only fit a 21" on my desk, upgrading RAM at a later date is not possible.
Does it pay to wait for a 21" with the 16GB and fusion, or should I jump at the one on sale now? (by the time I get enough suggestions to make a good decision it may be gone, but I have to ask.)
Thanks,
Steven
