I've been using an iPad Pro almost exclusively for about three months. I'm thinking of adding a mac back to the mix, but in a different form than my old MacBook Pro.
I'm looking at replacing a 32" VESA mounted TV with either a 27" iMac or setting up a Mac Mini to connect to it.
I feel the iMac would be the cleaner option, but at the tradeoff of a few inches of screen. That being said though, it would also be significantly higher resolution, and also a much more powerful machine.
What would you guys recommend? And if it's an iMac, would you recommend a current model, or an older 2011 model with maxed specs?
My plans for usage, in order of importance:
-Videos (DVDs, iTunes, etc)
-Music library
-light gaming (via controller most likely)
-light web design
-light programming (Xcode)
Any advice or recommendations would be appreciated!
