Ok let me make it quick and simple.
I make music and study architecture. so i need both mac and pc...
so im deciding to go with a macbook pro.. I was originally looking at the 15" i5 with 500 gb of space... best of both worlds.. only prob is that its expensive =/
I wanted a new computer to be my good investment for a couple yrs but its sooo hard being 2000 dollars and all..
so looking at a 13" with 4 gigs of ram and 500 gb harddrive it comes out to about 1234 with student discount...
Doing architecture on bootcamp, which is more valued... core 2 duo, i5, or does ram play a big part in it...
the 15" inch fitss the bill to a tee, good sized skin for arch and not getting cramppeddd.. only thing missing is an hdmi port
but yeaaa. opinions??
like i said the 15 inch is my first choice but would the processor be that much worse on the 13 inch for architectural needs, not just casual use?
should i make the investment now in the i5 so in 2 or 3 yrs my comp isnt tooo slow to keep up with tech and programs??
thanks
