So, it's time to pick new laptop. On one side there is quad core i7, nonretina, 4gb to 8gb, used, macbook pro( years around 2011-2012) with the AMD Radeon HD 6490M.
On the other side, is almost any windows with quad core i7, with 8gb of ram, and as the used macbook are around $1000, so to make the balance the graphic card of this one would be something like geforce 745m or 750m. Which one and why?

are you a student, hipster, or do you work in the creative /graphics, vieo, music.../ department?
or
do you like to play games?

mac is the better option for the first group, win for the later... or get a mac and make it dualboot to windows whenever you need that :D

the max i will ever go is $1300, and I might even spent that for msi gs60 if it would be restocked on the website I saw it last time. But the alienware is overpriced
