MAC Book pro or Air
 
Ok so i want a Macbook of sorts, don't want the new Gold one as i feel its underpowered for what i wanna do.

So my options are

Air
Pro

I used my Daughters Essex Uni method and have a quote for 997 for the I5 128 with 16gb ram Pro

However the Air is a little cheaper but not retina.

I will be using it for Photos i.e. Photoshop and Gaming, however Gaming on any Intel chip will be poop, but the Pro has a slightly more powerful 1...

Views please...

Got loads for sale on Ebay at the moment, so fingers crossed.

Anybody want a gaming laptop got 1 thats a month old....

Hi ya mate,

i had normal macbook went to air and then went to pro

would advise the 13'' Pro, fits nicely in the backpack and still quite thin, i found it is alot better performace over the air.

Alternatively go for a slightly older version of mac pro, the ones with cd drive, as you can swap out the drive for a ssd drive and transfer the operating system onto that drive and it will fly.

Retina and non retina display is really same argument as xbox and ps4 graphics will you really tell the difference :)

good luck mate!

If you're mainly doing photos get the retina display, you can definitely see the difference.
