Hi everybody. I'm a CS student and I'm considering buying a new MBP for college since my Windows laptop is getting old. I'd use it especially for programming using Eclipse, Android Studio, Swift etc. and of course for browsing.
I have a limited budget (I can't spend more than 1500€) so I'd go for the nTB MBP, also because I don't really need the new Touch Bar (I like the Touch ID though), and I'd buy a USB type-C hub so two ports are just fine for me. But since this nTB MBP is a sort of new MacBook Air, will the slower processor (2.0GHz 15W with Iris 540) be powerful enough for me?
Also, I can wait until September/October when the new model with Kaby Lake is likely to be released (hoping for a price drop).
Thank you and sorry for my English!
