Hi all,
I currently have a 15" MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) with the following stats:
2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB
251 GB flash storage
I am planning on trading it in at Apple for a gift card (website says will be $409) when the newest 15" Retina MacBook Pro is released.
I use Adobe Creative Cloud, Pro Tools, and heavy programming - ideally, I would like to ALSO get the newest 27" 5K Retina iMac when it is released. However, I realize that it probably won't be released until fall.
Is there a suggested way of possibly purchasing the current iMac and then trading it in once the newer one comes? Will it even be that much of an improvement?
I am trying to map this all out along with getting a 3 TB AirPort capsule that could serve as the main storage (so that I can put $$ towards flash drives on both models).
Thanks for any advice! I'll of course respond to any questions and appreciate your input.
