I will be buying a iMac this weekend. I have put up my 17" 2011 MacbookPro for sale. I am trying to determine which one I should get. Money is not the object although it will make a difference in what I do.
Up until six months ago, I was a die hard WIndows user for 30 years although my first computer was an Apple II+. My processing consists of usual word processing, some documents for business, and about 20,000 photographs. I have Adobe CS5 but am not versed in most of the programs. I was tempted to get the most, Core I7 with 3.4GHz and add RAM to it later. If I get the I5 and add RAM to it later, I could use the savings and maybe put toward an MacAir for the very rare times that I do travel or want something to take with me. As I said my processing requirements are light so wondering which way to go?
I appreciate all the suggestions in this board that I have already read and look forward to new ones.
Thank you,
Bill
