Everything Apple (the Mac heads thread)

Someone I know is doing web design stuff and is umming and arring about getting a Mac. She's using Photoshop, Illustrator and 3DMax? Should she get a Mac laptop because that's what everyone else uses? She'll be on a budget of up to £1k. I know Windows laptops that I could suggest but if Macs are still the done thing in design then there's not much point going Windoze is there?

Tough one... Macs and 3D software don't really go.. but you can always dual boot.
It'll have to be a 13inch Retina, but max out the ram as you cant upgrade later, annoyingly...

Defo dont let her buy a windows laptop, in 8 years I have only worked in one place which had windows and I felt it frustrating and hard to use, because I was not used to it, thats the boat she will be in but the other way round...
