I have a fairly powerful desktop (3570k processor, GTX 770 GPU). I was already planning on getting a Macbook but I've wait for years and now might be the perfect time. Only thing now is whether or not the MBPro 13'' is the best option or the 12'' MB.

Now, I'm graduating college soon and I'm not 100% of where I will be exactly. I should have more time to work on my hobbies (programming, graphic design, etc). However, I'm not sure if I should go ahead and get more power with the MBPro or get less power but more portability since I have a desktop. Any suggestions?
 
Ask yourself, could you do with an iPad for your portable work? If so, the new Macbook is right for you; if not, go with the updated MBP.
