have heard macbooks better gaming, imacs can better photoshop. also, imac closer end cycle according buyer's guide, making lean towards macbook more...

me, pros of macbook better specs price, portability, adorable glowing apple (what?) , take less room on desk. cons me seem awkward draw on (with graphics tablet) , screen smaller. have first hand experience drawing 15” macbook pro? draw in pse 10 tshirt designs , website. don’t draw epic-scale art works take 27” imac’s screen feel 15” small work with… how feel?

want buy magic mouse macbook pro if got one, work together?

struggling on get. not lot of people know photoshop or gaming or macs can’t find ask i’m hoping guys can me out.

macbook looking at;

15-inch: 2.4 ghz
• 2.4ghz quad-core intel core i7
• 4gb 1333mhz
• 750gb 5400-rpm1
• intel hd graphics 3000
• amd radeon hd 6770m 1gb gddr5


, imac looking at;

• 3.1ghz quad-core intel core i5
• 4gb 1333mhz ddr3 sdram - 2x2gb
• 1tb serial ata drive
• amd radeon hd 6970m 2gb gddr5

 

the imac better gaming has better video card, , larger hard drive. i5 vs i7 doesn't matter gaming. likewise, photoshop, either 1 fly.

far mac gaming though, need convince me why think macbook pro or imac gaming. $2000 can better gaming rig.

lastly, don't plan on gaming on macbook pro. it'll hot hot hot, , windows drivers suck. you'd (almost) better off buying macbook air , dedicated windows machine.

if can't tell, think gaming on mac bad idea.
