Common dilemma, which one to purchase. The macbook is 2014 model at a sweet price ( i7, 512GB sad + discrete gnu). iMac with similar spec is more.

I know 27" iMac is the sweet spot but, not enough realestate for that one. Can always get 4k monitor later and use laptop in clamshell mode.

1 December Update: Just ordered the following
  • 2.5 GHz Intel Core i7 (Crystalwell)
  • 16GB of Onboard 1600 MHz DDR3L RAM
  • 512GB PCIe-Based Flash Storage
  • AMD Radeon R9 M370X Graphics (2GB GDDR5)
  • 15.4" LED-Backlit IPS Retina Display
  • 2880 x 1800 Native Resolution
  • 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0
  • Thunderbolt 2, USB 3.0, HDMI
  • Force Touch Trackpad
