[QUOTE="iHarrison, post: 1269876, member: 195020"] I see what you're saying, but it does seem the best option then - for both portability and space-saving - [I]would[/I] be to get the high-end 15" MBP (but, as another poster said, upgrade the RAM yourself) and a compact 2-4 port USB hub. Said hubs can be attached by a cable, so you wouldn't need to have it jutting out the side of your laptop. You could even tuck it behind your monitor when you were using the MBP on your desk. I know you've got limited space, but even a Mac Mini wouldn't take-up much less space, and would only portable in the "use at A or B" sense, not "use it from A to B"; also the top specs for a MM are much lower than those for a MBP, not to mention the fact that desktops are less rugged than laptops & don't like being moved about too much...
