I've been using my 15" MBP (about 6 months old) as my 'desktop' due to the Mac MINI not having Quad Core i7 (until now). My MBP has SSD, 8GB Ram, i7, and I plug it into my 30" Dell (2560x1600) via the MiniDP->Dual Link DVI adapter.
Side Note: For a laptop I have a new 13" MBAir, so I have no need for the MBP as a true laptop.
1. How much is my MBPro worth ? (8gb, Intel 510 120GB SSD, New battery replaced under squaretrade Warranty, 15.4", i7-2ghz Quad Core) Alternatively I could sell it wih the OEM HD.
2. Will I be missing anything going to the MINI ? I plan to put a 256gb SSD in there, and 16GB ram.
2a. Will I be able to run the MiniDP -> Adapter for my 30" and run at full resolution ?
3. Any problems keeping a Mac Mini on 24/7 for daily usage as my workstation ? (Overheating, etc??)
4. Anything else I should know about going Mac MINI ?
Thanks
