Looking to buy a Mac Book for step son's graduation. He creates music and keeps a large library or music on his current PC model.

What do you suggest and why?

Appreciate any input.
 
What's your budget, does he want a 12", 13", 15" form factor? is a dGPU needed?

Seriously, you need to work with him to find out what he wants and needs. If he's using PC based software for music creation then a Mac might not even be the best choice.

Agree with posts above.

Ask HIM if he'd like to "go Mac", and then state what YOUR budget is.
Tell him he has so much $$$ to work with, then see what's available within it.
