I'm a graphic designer using mostly photoshop and illustrator to create my designs. Currently I have a 2.4 ghz intel core 2 duo with 4gb ram and the nvidea 8600m gt 256 vram. This has always been adiquite for my design needs until recently.
As I build more complex files in Ai I keep running out of memory. I actually get error messages that tell me "illustrator has run out of memory".
So my question is, with the various upgrades in Macbook pros since my machine's generation, what is the difference in the video card preformance across the 4 generations of unibody macbook pros?
