This post is a bit OT, i hope not too much. In case delete it
After my problems with windows (some days ago i had another annoying one: out of the blue windows reinstalled the linnstrument drivers and it failed (!) (the linnstrument changed its name into "linnstrument serial" and after into "linnstrument com port") and it was not working even after uninstalling the drivers, it was visible in some DAWs but not sending any midi signal. So i played for a bit connected to the ipad and when i went back to windows it was working again...) i was thinking, as suggested by many, to buy a mac. maybe not now, but in some months...
As i am a graphic "designer" i would use it to work on adobe suite so i wasn't sure between imac (desktop but cheaper, powerful, more connection (!) and bigger screen) or macbook (portable, in that case i would sell my laptop, for maybe 100-200$).
Otherwise a second option would be to buy a secondhand imac to use only or mainly for music and keep my laptop for all the rest (graphic stuff, photos, etc), In case the imac would be not powerful enough. At the moment, having problems with bitwig 8-tracks and not really prone to spend money on windows softwares, i am always recording using ipad and its cubasis app, but it's kinda limiting sometimes.
What's your suggestions? iMac or Macbook (i think i cannot afford the pro for now)? And, more important, if i take an used iMac, which version should i not go below (i mean for example "nothing older than 2015")?
Thank you very much and sorry, i am really not a mac guy so i have no idea
