Mac Pro has no screen... You can choose what you want for a screen.
that was my sloppy wording -- the "downside" was in reference to the
object of the sentence, the iMac
ps: I know you were reading this as Macbook Pro
i wouldn't have made that point about a MBP, though i would love a 13"
with a core i7 and an anti-glare, higher resolution screen
[...] Mac Pro. Lot longer useful lifespan as it is full upgradeable to more
memory, bigger screens, bigger HD, etc and lots of fast cores to start with to
keep you going.
that can be true -- it depends what you need; for many people that
lifespan advantage often means little in the end; i have found a middle
ground that works better for me -- buy an intermediate machine, upgrade
it sooner rather than later, replace it in two years; so when i hear
someone wondering where to compromise, i often suggest get a midrange
machine; if i didn't really need a laptop i'd buy a 27" iMac, and
arrange my space to make the glossy screen okay
