You may want to wait for the Blackmagic Design Ultrastudio 3D which is a Thunderbolt based video I/O device that allows your MacBook Pro (with Thunderbolt) to have video I/O capability. You can replace your internal drive with a high speed SSD one which will give you speed to playback 2K. Or you can get the new Promise Thunderbolt based storage.

For set use, I build a MacBook pro 17″ (2009-2010) with HD screen, a fast Intel SSD as boot drive and an extra Datadisk of 750gb /7200RPM in the drive bay.
Works fine for looks grading/checks and offline renders.
Because the GUI is not great for mouse use, I bring my WAVE panel as much as possible.I have made a Pelican/Storm case with the MacBook Pro + adapters and cables on the bottom and the WAVE on top. (all in foam).
So the whole set is just one big case and setup in minutes.On a side note:
I am really looking forward to the Resolve Lite version for a weird reason:
I had several attempts on set to “borrow’ my USB dongle. Seems lots of people know it is about a thousand dollar sticking out there…Resolve system:
MacPro 8 core 2010 – 16B memory
9TB harddisk (1 system disk, 8TB in software raid 0 for data)
Nvidea GTX285
Nvidea GT120
Blackmagic SDI Decklink
RedRocketcard.
Tangent Wave panel
Transvideo 15″ Cinemontor EvolutionAlso running it on a MacBook Pro 17” (5.2)
160gb SSD and 750gb HD
8gb mem -
You should wear the dongle around your neck, powered of course, so it lights up 🙂
Great set people :/
Yep , the light version would be great for that,A slice of color…
DaVinci 7.1.2 OSX 10.6.7
MacPro 5.1 2x 2,4 24GB
RAID0 8TB eSata 6TB

Hi Bastiaan…the Lite version is perfect for onset looks creation coz two nodes is is probably sufficient for that purpose. I can think of many other uses for the Lite version…can’t wait for it to be released as well.

off topic:
Yea I tried putting a bell on the dongle but than I was the fool carrying it most 🙂
Shooting in Asia brings a lot more people on the set and I hardly know what they are all doing there. I frequently find someone sleeping on my keyboard or browsing through my computer for software or emails.
No privacy there…..(Don’t even want to mention ‘respect’).
Since all studio’s are also extremely dusty and dirty, my MacbookPRo looks, almost black. 🙁Resolve system:
