Hello everyone,
I am new to MAC products! I've been using PCs all my life until now and I've decided to move to MAC....I've already put a deposit for a MACBOOK Pro 13 inch 2.44 Ghz....And I was intending to use it to record music with M-Audio Profire 610. But after some research I found out the the Hard drive speed for this model of MACBOOK is only 5400 RPM....A bit slow for a notebook to be used to record Cubase projects of up to 30 tracks sometimes.....
But then I also saw that at this price more or less, I could also get myself an IMAC 21,5 Core 2 Duo 3.06 GHz which will have a hard drive of 7200 rpm SATA...
For music recording, which one will be more suitable.....I wanted to be mobile but the IMAC HD screen and its faster Hard drive is really tempting me now to go for an IMAC.....
Here are the two models...
MACBOOK PRO:
Apple MACBOOK PRO MC374B/A review cheap prices Apple MACBOOK MC374B/A best buy discount online uk shop
IMAC:
Apple iMac MB950B/A / Intel Core 2 Duo 3.06GHz / 4GB / 500GB / 21.5 inch / SuperDrive / Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard / Desktop PC - Computing at Play.com (UK)
I hope that with your advice, I'll be able to choose wisely!!
