So you have to deal with choosing the CPU, the RAM. and the Hard Drive when customizing a apple computer on their website.
How do you make a cost friendly laptop that is the most versatile for whatever you throw at it?
A friend has told me to skip maxing the RAM, plug in 8 with a 256 or greater SSD and I'll be fine with whatever I want as long as I am not crushing it with high res footage.
An apple rep told me to max the processor out and RAM, and just use a portable HD, and that I'd be fine with the 128 that i came with on the low end.
Then I look online and the info contradicts itself.
Programs I use on a regular basis
Final Draft
Adobe Photoshop & InDesign
Scrivener
Adobe Premiere (or used to anyway)
FCP (light usage)
I went to Best Buy today hand the apple rep there basically told me to get an MacBook Air base model with 8GRAM.
The 15" rPro's are overkill for what I use a laptop for. So its essentially a 13rpo or Air. But I just don't understand what is the most important
