Hey, so I'm putting my iMac in the Members Market as soon as it's formatted because I need a laptop more than a desktop for my final 2 years at uni (doing an MEng).
I'm going to miss the iMac loads and the screen real-estate but needs must. If the iMac sells and I get a 13" MBP, there are a few questions I have;
Can I restore the contents of my iMac onto my new MBP from a time machine backup? I know it works when transferring from the same model but will
It work from iMac > MBP?
Will this also transfer software licences? I have a £400 adobe creative suit for which I've lost the serial number for.
Has anyone had a 13" MBP as their main machine? Is the lack of high resolution painful? And how is the speed (compared to the iMac in my sig)?
Can anyone recommend me a hard case? I'm not talking about a shell of incase, I mean like a sleeve that I can put the MBP in which I can then put in my backpack with a load of heavy books and the charger without the fear of it looking like I used it in an ultimate frisbee match?
Thank you to anyone who replies.
