Hello,
I'm deciding which rMBP is right for me. It's either the lowest end Retina Pro with 16gb/128gb or the 8gb/256gb model or a refurb 15' Retina from last year (lowest end model if I recall, it's about $350 more than the 13' machines)
I want to work out if it's worth springing for the old 15' model or the 16gb of ram upgrade on the 13' (it's either or).
Here's what I do on a computer:
I use Safari avidly generally with about 10+ or so tabs open but no Flash content. iTunes, Notes, Reminders etc. I use basically all the built in apps at times. Just general usage, you guys know the stuff. I also edit an hour long podcast in GarageBand. Adding intro music, cutting out pauses etc. I don't play any heavy games. I have an external 23' 1080p monitor I'll connect to. I don't use much disk space.
I want the machine to last a good few years but nothing crazy.
Thanks,
Simon
