Hey everyone- so amidst all the 2016 MacBook Pro hype I've gone for a 2015 13inch with 2.9ghz/512gb/8gb which I got for last years price of £1400.

However with a little more research I saw I can get educational discount (I'm a teacher) and get a 2.7ghz/512gb/16gb 2015 13 inch from Apple for £1610.

My question is am I over thinking it? I use my current MacBook for Logic Pro and everyday uses. I know either machine will be a big bump up for me; I guess it's more a case of will I need 16gb RAM in the future with updates/new software and plugins? Or is this extra ram not going to be noticeable with what I'm using it for?
