  • iMac or MacBook Air? Much speed difference?

    Posted by Laurence Bartone on August 2, 2015 at 3:49 am

    I’m not concerned about acquiring another monitor (I’ve three now), so the iMac choice is mostly a matter of being able to toss it in my car and spend my summer in another town.

    Since my MacBookPro was stolen a few weeks back, I’m wondering if I really need one – but I do need something to work with on those weekends (or weeks!). Is there a lot of difference between a high end iMac and a MacBook Air (for video editing)?
