Hi,
I'm looking to buy the latest 2012 non-retina 15'' MacBook Pro, 2.3 i7, 512mb 650m etc...
I'm going to spec it up with the high res anti glare screen and a 750gb 7200rpm hard drive. Will this be good enough to run the following and get decent performance?

FCPX
After Effects
Lightwave / Maya

Thanks guys.
 
A very short answer here..... yes. I run cs6 on my 13 inch 2012 and it runs just fine so a more powerful 15 inch 2012 with more power will be able to do everything you want.
