Hello everyone-
I just got my very first iMac a few days ago, and the reason i got this was because it WAS alot more powerful than the macbook pro 2010 (also mb pro's ridiculous price)-
But the new macbook Pro seems like it's raw power is almost as good as my new iMac?? (2.94Ghz i7)
I need both the portability and bigger screen, but since considering the price, mb pro 2010 was bit too inferior compared to the iMac, thats why i chose this-
Considering now, do you think my iMac is still ALOT better in many ways than the mb pro 2011? (my main use - Photoshop/AutoCAD/indesign/gaming)
If not, i was thikning of getting a mb pro 15" plus an additional monitor?
I need to make a decision before its too late so i can get a refund...
also I will prob get a few more upgrades if i end up getting a mb pro, can u prioritise which options to get please? (between 2.2->2.3GHz / 4gb RAM -> 8gb RAM/ or SSD? (and if i get SSD, is it some kind of extra memory i get on top of the basic 750Gb?? or is it just that cus if it is only 256 Gb SSD, thats not enough..?)
Before i finish, what is the difference btween 15" / 17" mb pro? is it only the size? or 17" has better cooling/noise control etc?
Thank you very much for your time-
