*Pls Help* Which macbook is best for me; 13" or 15"?

I have always been anti Apple but after my first iphone (4s) I have decided to get an Iphone 6 and a MacBook Pro. I am an accountancy student, I understand I would have to buy the sage and Microsoft softwares separately for it but apart from doing my accountancy work on it, I would like to use my spare time to make videos to post on YouTube, make DJ mixes using Traktor, make beats on it using Fruity Loops, record songs and manage some online business such as eBay - these that I have just listed are my main priorities on the macbook. I would of course watch videos and play games on it too but not so much. So mainly for education and media purposes for a starter which would be best for myself? The 13" retina or the 15" retina? My friend is a professional DJ and advised me that he does all his DJing on his 13" macbook, he thinks the 15" isnt necessary and is a waste of money. Can someone please help me in making this decision?
Many Thanks!!

It depends on what you really want.  Personally I have the 13 inch. But the nice thing about the 15 inch is it has two speakers. If the size really doesn't matter then I would say go with the 13 inch because its more cost effective

    I am taking automobile engineering course & I need a laptop.. Please give me a right suggestion!
    Which macbook is best for automobile student?

    Any of the new MacBook Air or MacBook Pro models will do.  Check their features at Apple.com > Mac.  The Air and Pro models are now very close to each other with the Air a little less expensive and a little lighter (3 vs. 3.5 lbs.).  I would purchase 8 GB of RAM no matter which machine you buy.
    The question is how much permanent (SSD) storage do you need?  128 GB, 256 GB, more?  You need to decide this up front and you cannot increase it once it is delivered so choose carefully.  How much storage do you use on a current Mac or PC?  How much additional storage do you plan to use?
    If you undersize the SSD storage all is not lost.  You can offload seldom-used data onto an external hard drive.  However it is easier to manage the storage if it all fits on your system drive.
    Also check out refurbished Macs at http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals.  These come with the standard Apple one year warranty.

  • Which browser is best for macbook pro?

    Which browser is best for macbook pro.
    I have used Safari for a couple of years but have been told recently that I would be better switching to Chrome

    The best browser for you depends on your specific needs; as you can install multiple browsers without them interfering with each other, download Firefox, Chrome, and any others you'd like to try out, and pick the one which works best for you.

  • Which Mac is best for music purposes?  I want to mix music recorded from MIDI and live sound, and also want to use Sibelius to play music in.  I'm looking at MacBook Pros; any tips?  13" or 15"?

    Which Mac is best for music purposes?  I want to mix music recorded from MIDI and live sound, and also want to use Sibelius to play music in.  I'm looking at MacBook Pros; any tips?  13" or 15"?

    I would think a 15" with the i7 CPU. You can get a 13" with the i7 CPU but the 15" has a dedicated graphic chip along with the intergrated one.
    You will also need to upgrade the hard drive to a faster 7200RPM model instead of the standard 5400RPM model that comes with all MBPs. The Sibelius website recommends the 7200RPM or a SSD. You will also be better off installing 8GBs of RAM.
    Both of those upgrades can be made after you buy a MBP for much less then Apple charges for the same upgrades and you get to keep the original RAM and hard drive.

  • Which book is best for learning Lightroom 5 for a complete beginner?

    I'm an Aperture user and as everyone has heard the news, a lot of us are considering switching over. I went through the Apple pro-training aperture, logic, and FCP books and loved the format of those. I've been reviewing my options for LR5 books on Amazon and I see a couple, Kelby, Evening, and The Adobe Classroom in a book. I kind of like the classroom in a book format as it resembles the Apple book's format. Which book is best for learning LR5, from a complete beginner's perspective?

    I would avoid Kelby like the plague. I didn't like his book, I felt his chapters on the Library module were effectively useless and off the mark.
    I would start with the free e-book Lightroom 5 - Free Quick Start Guide PDF eBook | The Lightroom Queen
    I would also watch some videos at Products | Lightroom | Adobe TV

  • Which headset work best for iPad Air

    Which headset work best for iPad Air

    This can be highly subjective. I would pick a few models that you think you'd like, then read the reviews at the Apple Store link that Diavonex directed you to. Also read the reviews on Amazon.com as well to get a feel for a few models and what kind of sound they can produce.
    Back to the "subjective" aspect I mentioned...when the Apple Ear Pods were released (they now come standard with all new iPhones), I had an iPhone 4 at the time and had the older headphones (the new Ear Pods were introduced/released with the iPhone 5). I heard great things about them and almost purchased a set when they went on sale as a stand-alone item but I decided not to. When I upgraded my phone to an iPhone 5, I got them included with the new phone. Great, I thought...well, after trying them, I hated them and I still do. They produce way too much bass for my personal taste and sound boomy. I much prefer the older model. It's just personal preference.
    Read the reviews and see if they describe how the headphones sound...boomy, tinny, clear, muddy, etc and try to match that to what your preference may be.

  • How Do I Decide Which MacBook is Right For Me?

    I am currently a high school senior and I have always had my heart set on a MacBook and my oldest sister has offered to buy me one for my graduation present.
    My only problem is I am not too sure which one is the best for me. I know MacBooks in general, regaurdless of model, are all great quality, but I really want something that I can keep around for a few years to get me through whatever schooling I choose to go through and still have with me after. I am also a beauty blogger so I do a lot of typing and use the internet as if it were an extension of my body. I also upload lots of product photos from my camera to use on my blog and occasional editing is needed, but nothing to the extent that I have to use Photoshop or other advanced programs, only minor editing basics are used.
    I know that I do want something fast for web surfing and something with enough room to store all of my music, pictures, and programs comfortably without an external hard drive. Portablitity is also a key feature, but I feel like both the Air and the Pro seem portable enough for my purposes, so it is still a toss-up. A cd/dvd drive would be a nice feature, but I am not too sure how often I would actually use it as I tend to store my music on my iPod and phone as opposed to on CDs. I also don't feel the need for a huge screen since I do want it to be portable, I have been looking into the 11in - 13in range.
    Right now I am currently comparing the 13in. 2.5GHz MacBook Pro, 13in. MacBook Air, and the 11in. 1.7GHz MacBook Air. Even though this is coming as a gift to me, I still want to get the most bang for the buck, but if it sounds like I only need 64GB of storage, then I would have no problem going with the $999.00 MacBook Air.
    But in the grande scheem of things, I just don't understand how much storage and speed would be best for me based on my usage.
    Any suggestions on what model you think would fit me the best?

    They pretty much explain themselves. The MacBook Air is for those who want a portable yet powerful Mac, where as the MacBook Pro is for those who want more power than the MacBook Air for gaming and photo editing and reliablity as they can last for plenty of years with good treatment, the one thing they lack is portability.
    For just a blogger and student, a MacBook Air 13inch would be best as it's just the right size and power. As a blogger you'll need to take it where ever you go and I'm sure you're not going to use it for heavy impact gaming and large photo editing or video editing. If you are, then get the MacBook Pro.

    I will not qualify it as best. Best depends on your requirement. 2008 r2 is much cheaper than SS2012 and SS2014. First make sure what all features you need in your new environment. Please read below link for features supported by various editions of SQL

    If you think 2012/2014 fits in your requirement well then go ahead.

  • Which program is best for fine art images?

    I am a watercolor artist who captures and prints her own fine art images using Epson R2880 printer and Epson Fine Art Velvet paper.  I have thus far only used Picasa... but am now ready to step it up to Adobe... I am on the trial membership for the Cloud.. but am overwhelmed by all the programs available, like Photoshop CC and Dreamweaver... I have no idea what the differences are and which one would be best for my needs... I am really only adjusting my images for white balance, color balance, contrast, hue and saturation etc... and need to be able to isolate certain sections of the image at times to do that... (which I can't with basic programs like Picasa).  Please help!!!

    My goodness!  You have jumped straight in with a full Creative Cloud subscription?  Way to go, as we say in this part of the world. 
    Ahhh...  Just read your post again, and I see you are on the trial.   The Photographer's bundle deal would have been ideal for you, with Photoshop and Lightroom for just $10 a month, but you have just missed that, unless you have previously owned and Adobe application.    But Photoshop is the way to go if you only want the one application.
    There some great learning aids on Adobe TV, or get a sunscription to Lynda.com for a few months.
    Someone mentioned Illustrator for line art.  After using Photoshop since it was first released fo the PC, I have recently started learning Illustrator, and I'm having one jaw dropping moment after another.  I had no idea it could do so much.  So that might be worth considering, but only in addition to Photoshop.
