Which computer should I get?
I'm currently using my Late 2010 MacBook Air 11" (1.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Due / 2GB DDR3 Ram / SSD) which I've been using as my primary computer, connected to a Samsung 27" display and my desk.
Recently, my computer has become slower and slower ever since the upgrade to Mountain Lion, it also doesn't help that I'm using quite intensive applications like Vega, Chrome (Avg. 10 Tabs) and Skype.
I use my computer for work as I work from home as a Network Security Consultant, so it's quite important for me to have the best hardware possible and for it to be at least 3 years future-proof.
I was thinking about the MacBook Pro Retina 15" (16GB Ram / SSD / 2.8GHz Intel Core i7) or the iMac 27" because since I have the MacBook Air, the portability of my primary computer won't matter.
I normally use my computer for 12-16 hours a day using applications such as Xcode, Eclipse, Wireshark, Chrome (10 Flash intensive tabs running), Skype (6-way HD conferences which can last up to 12 hours a day), and for personal use, I edit photos in Creative Suite 5, edit 1080p movies in iMovie and play games such as Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Left 4 Dead 2, etc.
Which computer would you recommend?- Asked by Kree L

Macbook Pro 2012 enough to handle Modo, Photoshop, and zbrush?
Hi I was wondering can the Macbook Pro 2012 with upgraded 16gb rams with the High-res glossy upgrade enough to handle Modo/Maya, Photoshop, and Zbrush. This is the 2.3ghz with the 512mb video card. I'm planning on using this for College as i'm an Art major and I need a laptop that can Handle all three of those software and maybe even other 3D rendering programs. This Laptop is design as a workstation and not for gaming. So I was wondering with the spec I have will it be enough. Please don't get all technical on me as i'm new to Macs. Also this wont be doing any Video Editing at all and i might upgrade the main HDD into a SSD in the future. Thanks in advance and i'm simply buying a Mac so that i can use both Mac and PC in my field. I have a powerful PC desktop at home.

Best AnswerI currently have the use of both retina MacBook's. I was given the 15 by my company and the 13 came up on Groupon at a bargain price that I couldn't see past. My intention was to evaluate them and sell one or the other.
I use all the standard apps, and the most intensive stuff I use is Aperture 3 and PSE. I can honestly say the i5 in the 13 has handled everything I have thrown at it with ease with no noticeable lag in any environment.
For my uses the 13 is more than adequate, and it is a lot easier for carrying round. Until they put a retina screen in the 11' Air, this is about the best mobile computer available.
I've not even noticed any lag from only having 8gb ram in the 13 instead of the 16gb in the 15.
For you though, the gaming maybe an issue. I don't have any games to run and test for you. The hd4000 is far superior to the hd3000 I last used on a 13 Pro, and I imagine for most games on medium settings it would be fine. But if you want that top notch graphics performance, you're going to need a top notch (and dedicated) GPU.
So in short, the 13 is just about the perfect laptop for most things, but the 15 is an out and out desktop replacement.- Answered by Dean J from Nottingham

Best AnswerNo. 10.7 and 10.8 are only available as downloads from the Apple App store. You must have 10.6.8 installed to access the App store and to upgrade. Apple sells a 10.6.8 DVD for $20. Buy that, install it, and then you can get the other upgrades.

- Asked about: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard
Best AnswerIt looks like you should be able to run Snow Leopard, although you didn't say how much RAM you have. Technically Snow Leopard only requires 1GB, but in my experience it works best with at least 2GB, and more is better.
