Hello guys,

It's been long since I last posted here but I've come to need your opinion.

I'm thinking of getting a 13-inch base-model MacBook Pro and the cheapest iMac instead of getting a 17-inch MacBook Pro. I'll obviously use the MacBook Pro at school and the iMac at home (I live at home). How I see it is that I get two computers almost for the price of one. That's a faster computer, bigger screen and mobility at the same time.

Thanks in advanced,
Hg+

Microcenter has the 13" MBP for $999, cheaper than education pricing or refurbs.

What's the catch?

No catch. 1 per person.
