Hi chaps I have an old iMac - iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 - the video board is failing and the crashes are becoming annoyingly frequent. I used to work in motion graphics and pro photography but now just tweak the odd image in P/shop so my needs are more simple, portability is not a biggie but it might be useful, otherwise at my price range I think I have 2 choices:

2017 Apple MacBook Air 13.3", Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 128GB PCIe-based SSD £769.00

2017 Apple iMac 21.5", Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD, Iris Plus Graphics 640, Silver £951.00

Any advice very welcome ... many thanks Roger
