heretolearn Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Hey Brian, I have a windows desktop and it's a monster, but looking about getting myself a laptop over the coming months - I'm buying Apple - http://www.apple.com/uk/shop/buy-mac/macbook-pro?product=MJLQ2B/A&step=config# would you make any upgrades to this? I've read similar posts addressing the i5 v i7 and was thinking about the 13" until I seen your comment on the "go big or go home" Thanks my good man.

Brian Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I'd definitely get at least a 512GB HD at a Minimum. Get the 1TB if you can swing it. CPU doesn't really matter that much and you are locked into 16GB, since the RAM is soldered to the motherboard with no expansion slots. So for that model you linked to, upgrade the HD and get AppleCare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Unfortunately, the 13" MacBooks are really underpowered for editing photos or editing things like video. Those models are glorified iPads. Great for general computing, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heretolearn Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 Top man, Thanks for all this - glorified ipads they may be - but sexy as fliddle sticks they also are(!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
