Macbook Pro specs to handle MC6

[Kell Smith]

This thread has been very helpful to me, thank you. I’m looking to purchase a MB Pro and to switch to Avid – but have been trying to figure out what the specs need to be for it to run smoothly. Some people have said that only a desktop system will provide the needed power, but I really need the portability of a laptop. At the same time, I don’t want a system that is slow. Welcome any further suggestions. Thank you.
