So i want to buy a Mac since about 2-3 years now...

No hating because its a mac,ill run Parallels on it if i need to.

-----

So ive compared the two(Mbp and Mini) and for the price of the Macbook Pro,i can get the same specs on the Mac Mini. But i save 100$ with the mac mini.

Problem is: The Mac Mini USB Super Drive,is that a drive to put your cd's and shit?


Mac Mini *Upgraded Specs(878$):

Made a pastebin for each computers(specs too long)

Ultimate Question: I wanna do graphics without lagging or having problems while rendering.
Maybe play GTA IV/V and smaller graphics games.

If i buy the Mac Mini,ill plug it in my tv,same thing with the mac...


Which one is/would be the best to make graphics mainly?



Update!!! If i take the 2.7GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i7 and use 8gb or RAM instead the mac mini will cost me 200$ less then the macbook pro itself

Your not going to want a mac. Macs in my opinion are completely pointless. You can do so much more on a pc. You will also get more programs available to you, and you can get way better specs for less the price! Just my opinion though.

You can get great pc's that will give you great graphics and everything else you need. You can go and buy a mac but in my opinion that will just be a waste of money for you.

Exactly.

You can buy a PC that runs just as fast if not faster, for half the price.

What's Parallels? Something like bootcamp? If it is then you're just paying for over expensive hardware.
