Hey Everyone,
I know I talked about recently the past few days about the Mac Pro and how I have been considering getting it. But we never know when they will update it.
So.... I considered another option, the Macbook Pro 15" Ret.. Upgrade it to the faster core and I would be very happy with it or what ever it gets upgraded to over the next few months to a year. I need a travel option as I iPad Mini isn't doing what I need and lets face it, not going to run FCPX.
SO here is the thing. I have a 32" monitor being shipped to me. Its a 2.5k display with %100 RGB accuracy for photo, cad and video work. Honestly its a 27" Mac display on steroids and just about the same price. Plus I have a few USB 3.0 MyBook drives for storage, crap load of stuff connected via USB2.0 and few bluetooth items.
So I was wondering if there were any docking stations for the MBP to help make connecting my devices. My display has two USB 3.0 and two additional USB 2.0 jacks built in. So if I can just find a stand, I should be able to plug in the USB jack and display port cables to the MBP and be ready to go. Then just unplug those when on the road..
What everyone else's thoughts? Also any Docking stations for the MBP?
Thanks,
Joe
