Excellent choice Stan. I'm still happy with my used 2011 MBP 15 inch (matt screen) Unibody. I got it used in mint cond 4 months ago. 2.53 Ghz with 8GB ram, into which I installed a 250 GB SSD HD - it runs so fast and effortlessly. Definitely the best Mac I've ever had in terms of speed, build quality and general usability. I edit Sd and HD video on it regularly and it swallows everything up I can throw at it. Goes everywhere with me in a Marmot messenger bag with Lowepro deluxe padded strap. I'm a bit of portable computing geek - ever since I read a book called 'On The Road' by Michael Prochak back in the mid-1990s. ISBN 0-201-59396-1. If you want a trip down memory lane with a heady mix of Apple PowerBooks and Jack Kerouac, it's a must read!
The only thing it hasn't won the Gold Star for from me is the keyboard - that accolade still rests with the best keyboard in a Mac portable that i have ever used: a PowerBook 1400 (still sitting in the attic, can't bear to part with it!) -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ Broadcast, Corporate, || (O) | Web Video Production ---------- <www.seeingeye.tv> _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
