Advice on buying a 13" MacBook Pro
Hey everybody!
I am currently getting ready to buy my wife and I our first Mac. But I need some advice in making sure I'm picking the right one.
I'll give you the rundown:
I'm looking at the 13" MacBook Pro because I'm double majoring in communications and advertising so I would like something relatively portable as I spend a lot of time going from class to class and going to the library. I've been doing a lot of presentations with graphics and writing papers.
My wife is getting ready to start (finally) her own photography business and she is the one that pointed me towards Macs.
Money is somewhat of an issue, I have been saving but my PC just died on me a little bit earlier than what I would have liked, so a new computer is needed rather quickly.
So I was thinking of either of the 13" models (for portability sake) and maxing the RAM out. I would also be buying her, her very own external hard drive for her pictures.
And then later on this summer grab her a Thunderbolt Display so she has a bigger monitor.
So I guess my biggest question is, which one would be best for the next year until we get on our feet and I graduate? Or should I just man up and buy a 15"? After I graduate, the laptop will go right to her or I'll buy her a new bigger one after I find a job. Thank you for any and all advice you all can give me.
