So I'm getting really impatient on these new iMacs and who knows if they are going to come out... So it had me thinking, why I don't just get a MacBook Pro right now and connect it to my Dell 20" widescreen monitor when I want to?
I use the iLife apps like iPhoto and iMovie extensively (lots of photos and videos of our 8 week old). I do use Lightroom and Photoshop all the time too though. I've always had a desktop and a laptop but for financial reasons I had to sell one of them and I ended up selling both which is why I have no PC right now..
If I got a MBP, I would buy one of those WD Blue 500gb hard drives for it. I just wanted to know how many of you have the MBP as your only computer? I currently don't have a home computer, so whatever I get will be my only PC.
The flexibility of a laptop is cool, I'd be able to put photos and video on it if I'm not home and say at my family for the holidays or something. But I'm not sure how much I'd actually use it away from the desk. Then I feel, if I would use it at the desk and a C2D 2.66 proccessor is enough, then I should just spend less and get a 2.93 C2D iMac...
I'd like this computer to at least last me 3 years (w/ AppleCare warranty).
