Hey guys. I've been so torn between this decision.
I do lots of web and Word. Minecraft. And the biggest thing is photo editing. Lightroom and Photoshop simultaneously.
Either set up will have 16GB upgraded. I like the appeal of the 512GB capacity on the 2.6, but it's not entirely necessary.
I have $2500 and a 25% discount.
Options:
1) rMBP 2.3, 16GB, 256. And a thunderbolt display for editing and such.
2) rMBP 2.6, 16GB, 512. Also with a SuperDrive and a magic mouse.
Both with apple care.
Both of these deals are somewhat around my budget. If I got 1) then I'd buy the SuperDrive and Mouse later on.
I know the .3 difference in processing speed is only about a 10-14% increase, so I'm wondering if it's even worth it or if I would notice it in use.
I also heard something about The 2.3 battery being better than the 2.6.
Lemme know what you think!
Thx
