Advice on selling all my computers and buying a new one!


hi,

have array of (getting) old computers i'm considering replace new equipment.

main workstation pc 2006, windows 7 64 bit, 6gb ram, intel e6600 dual-core processor, , added corsair 64gb ssd gave boost. 1 connected 22in samsung 1600x1050 monitor, , use apple wireless keyboard + wireless trackpad.

have 2 mac's: 13 in macbook air (late 2008), allround (not-for-hard-work) notebook dispite of being kind of slow lion, , damaged macbook unibody 13-inch (only works connected external screen, tv).

must mac osx, can't let go of windows 7, think better when need intensive work office (excel!) , multitude of other software (photoshop, after effects, autocad, ...). that's thing, moving on....


considering purchasing 1 of 2 packages, considering using windows 7 (bootcamp'ed) of time:

  1. only keep macbook air
  2. buy mac mini 2011 i7 (probably without ssd, way expensive!)
  3. buy apple thunderbolt display


or

  1. sell everything
  2. buy macbook pro 13 i7 + ssd
  3. buy apple thunderbolt display


reason considering mac hardware run windows construction quality , overall simplicity of equipment functionality when running mac osx (in case of thunderbolt display, believe it'll last few years, if swap computer, , keep extra-functionality provides)


looking comments on decision, , opinions on mac mini , macbook pro 13 overall power user experience.


sorry lenghty post, , in advance!
 

hi

personally, think better selling , going the:
buy macbook pro 13 i7 + ssd option.

don't use bootcamp or mac use. if use going windows etc. may better above choice, mentioned.
