13 or 15-in Macbook Pro?
I currently have a 15, would be nice to minimize.Once I settle back into the city I may opt in for a desktop and keep this mid 2012-clunker that's still ticking.

15 if you plan to work on the laptop display. But if you're doing print, you should invest in a large external that you can calibrate well.

i use a 13" macbook Pro w/ retina display. I have a 27" external I use in the office.

I have the same setup as bulletfactory, I would never go back to a 15", they now feel too big/cumbersome to carry around in comparison. The only benefit I see with the 15" (if you have an external monitor) is that it has two graphic cards vs. the one on the 13". At least I still think that's the case.

They are huge to carry around. That's my main issue. I may be using the 13" in-house (in the future) but, there would be a hook up to an external.
13" it is just for the portability I think.

mono i'm not so heavy on the print work these days. trying to focus on one thing... balancing the 2 made me nuts.
- okay, so you just need a UI machine... get a $500 PC thenmonospaced
- But he IS still doing print, just "no so heavy". Do you read Monospaced? And why is a 15" necessary?Josev
