upgraded standard macbook pro vs base macbook pro with retina?
So I'm getting a new Macbook pro for college and the two I'm looking at are about the same price with different benefits. I'm looking for a versatile computer for everything I will do in college. I dont run any super intense photo programs or video editors, I just game and am a standard user. Also I plan on running bootcamp and playing some games on the computer. It's between:
-a Macbook Pro with retina display
base specs of 8gb RAM and 2.3ghz processor and I would also buy an external optical drive
The only Cons are that im not sure if 256gb SSD is enough for boot camp and everything i would be doing
-Macbook Pro Standard 15in
2.6ghz processor and 8gb RAM
750gb HDD 7200rpm
The price comes out to about the same so im really torn between a retina/portability vs 2.6ghz processor and optical/ethernet
so basically 2.6ghz vs. 2.3ghz and 750gb HDD vs 256 SSD
any help?
