I was looking at the 13 inch macbooks, but wasn't sure if they're powerful enough or if I should shell out the extra money for the pro. The other trick with getting a mac is that I'd need to get Parallels so that I could run Windows since our copy of Photoshop & Premiere is the windows version. But that seems reasonable. Have you done much with video on your macbook? Thanks Jessie. I was looking at the 13 inch macbooks, but wasn’t sure if they’re powerful enough or if I should shell out the extra money for the pro.

After spending three and a half years with the 13" Macbook, my next laptop will probably be the 15" Macbook Pro, solely for the extra screen real-estate. I like the size of the 13" because it's easy to carry and use on your lap/table/desk but sometimes I'd like more screen area, especially for development.
