[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1644942, member: 56379"] That's quite a difference in models. Going from a 13" to 15" display, 128gig to 256gig storage, and dual CPU to Quad CPU. I think that the 15" MBP would be overkill. But at the same time…the 13" MBP you have I would consider the 128gig of storage to be on the small side (I would get at least 256gig of storage). I also wanted to point out one LARGE ERROR in the specs for the Best Buy MBP. This $1799 15" MacBook Pro DOES NOT have the dedicated NVIDIA 750M graphics. This model has the integrated Iris Pro graphics only. The 15" MBP with the 750M is quite a bit more expensive at $2499. The Best Buy "specs" says it has the dedicated 750M graphics. Just another reason why I don't shop for Apple computers at Best Buy. Errors!!!:( But I do see Best Buy has knocked $200 off this 15" MBP model.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
