We are sick and tired of the PC problems and after another PC outage recently we've decided to make the Mac move. We've known for some time that we want an iMac and have been saving hard. The saving is going better than expected so we're not far off having enough. We also know that we'll then start saving immediately to replace my wheezing laptop with a Macbook pro. They will both be the entry level models as we can neither afford or justify getting all the bells and whistles, so it'll be the 24" iMac 2.66Ghz and the 13" Macbook pro.
Now then, it struck me the other day that the order we are buying them in might be wrong? Since the desktop died, we've been using the laptop almost exclusively even after the desktop was repaired. I'm not sure whether that's just laziness or because the desktop tends to be a pain in the you know what. I think that we'd be better getting the iMac first and then the macbook at a later date just for me, but on the flip side, getting the macbook pro first would be very convenient! I'd appreciate input from those who know about both and how much we'd be losing out by not having the iMac first!
We'll be using it as a family type machine as well as my PS/LR needs. We're also going to be saving for some kind of camcorder as we've another little one on the way later in the year.
Many thanks in advance
