Sounds pretty basic, but one might recognize MacBook's last a long time and your user needs may grow over time.


Just about any MacBook Pro or Air will do what you say you'd be doing. RAM and Internal memory can never be increased once purchases, so make sure you buy one with enough memory as it can a costly mistake not doing so.


Otherwise, use this link to compare models to see what you think may be the best device for you --> Mac - Compare Models - Apple
