New Macbook For Graphic Design
I'm a graphic designer and have always worked on MBP's. I'm about to upgrade again and can't decide if I'm better off getting a new retina display 13' MacBook Pro and a 27' Thunderbolt Display (as I travel around a lot and work in cafes) or keep my current MBP just for travelling and meetings in cafes etc and buy a big old iMac 27' for the office and then just dropbox files between the two. Which do you think is a better/faster option for tonnes of graphics work ie. I have pretty much the whole Adobe Creative Suite on the go at all times :) Thanks.
Graphic Design Apps For Mac
For those who need a Mac for graphic design, but want it to be portable, then we recommend taking a look at the 16-inch MacBook Pro. The 16-inch display has 3072-by-1920 native resolution at 226 pixels per inch with support for millions of colors, 500 nits of brightness, wide color and True Tone, making it perfect for graphic design.
- Creative professionals know that Apple laptops dominate the market when it comes to graphic design capabilities, and the new 16-inch MacBook Pro is no exception. This model features an improved Retina display with P3 color gamut calibration for more accurate colors, making it perfect for illustrators and animators.
- Best desktops for design, graphics, video and photography in 2020: iMac Pro, Surface Studio 2, and more. As Apple's desktop Macs enter a period of uncertainty, PC manufacturers offer attractive.

DD18 is going to take graphic design and we plan to get her a new laptop. She will do some of her schoolwork on the school computers, since they will already have certain programs loaded and she won't have to purchase them. But she will also do things on her own laptop and has a Wacom tablet. It is a 2 year program, so we expect the laptop to last beyond graduation as well. Her school didn't have a particular recommendation other than waiting a semester to see what you like, but she'd want a laptop before then. She is used to working with our MacBook Air.
She thinks she likes the Macbook Pro. I know she needs at least 256 of storage which is what the links are below. She thought a larger screen would be nice, but going into a 15' is quite a price jump from 13' and I can't hack spending over $2000. However, I found still new 2015 models with a 15' screen for $1879. She thinks it is annoying that the newest Macbook Pros have the new USB-C ports and she would need an adapter.

Any thoughts from those familiar with Macbooks and/or graphic design?
