hope guidance suit needs best, thank you:confused:

main uses surfing internet, using itunes ipod , ipad, watching youtube videos (mainly @ 480p).

don't hd video editing.
won't using gaming use consoles that.
keen on garage band application put use electric guitar , fx pedals.
able multi task , have browsers open , spotify running or itunes.
using 2 monitors, hdtv , vga computer monitor.

base model suit me fine or garage band application need more graphics or processor power making me wish i'd got 2.5 couple of months down line.

i'm thinking if theres in mac app store needs more power may want try in future.
