    Does anyone have a solid grasp on the hardware capabilities on the new MacBook Pros (13 or 15) to know if it'd power the 27" 5k iMac screen? I know I'd need at least a Thunderbolt 2 to Thunderbolt 3 cable, but would that cut it? The LG displays seem to be supported at 5k. The previous...

    Replacing my MacBook Air 11 Early 2015 for rMBP Late 2013. Worth it?

    I have the chance to replace my MacBook Air 2015 11.6 for a Retina MacBook Pro 13.3 late 2013. Same RAM and storage (4gb and 128ssd) Do you think is worth it? For what I've seen the hardware in the rMBP is pretty similar because it's using a Haswell processor, so it's not going to be outdated...
