Hi Eveyone,

Looking at the 13" Macbook Pro.

All I need it for is hooking up my audio interface (Edirol FA-101) which connects to 2 studio monitors and a record player. I will also be watching tv shows/movies through my Samsung 55" LED TV.

Do I just need the basic model (i5) or should I go for the i7? I will definitely put in a 128gig SSD.

My main question is:

How will the inputs work for - 1. Audio Interface (I will need to buy a 9pin-6pin converter? WILL THIS WORK?) 2. External HDD 1TB (leaving only 1 USB3 available?). 3. Samsung LED TV (what converter do I need? Mini-display/thunderbolt to HDMI cable?

Your help would be much appreciated.
