Hi Andy, Depends on what you want to do. A Macbook Air would be a fine option especially for a secondary machine. Probably low enough on the cost especially on the second hand market.
A pro will give you more horse power but if you already have that IMac I think you’re probably in good shape. Here’s a whacky idea, what about renting a Macbook Pro for a few days for the training and then going back to your iMac when you’re done. Less expensive and you don’t end up with hardware you don’t sound like you need. > On Jun 28, 2016, at 10:42 AM, Andy <meikle.ai...@btinternet.com> wrote: > > Hi all. > > I have just purchased an imac desk-top computer but in order for me to > undergo one-to-one training in my area, I need to buy a second hand portable > device. > > Once I have a recomendation, a friend can have a look on Ebay. > > I'd like a mac lap-top and if possible, running El Capitan. > > My sense of touch is very poor so I need a mac book with a pretty good > keyboard on it.
