Cool, thanks for the detailed response. I was toying with getting a 13" MBP, but have always like the 12" tiny form factor. I do have a big slow and heavy 13" D

Cool, thanks for the detailed response. I was toying with getting a 13" MBP, but have always like the 12" tiny form factor. I do have a big slow and heavy 13" Dell from the day job right now, so we'll find out how this new project goes. Shutting down from overheating doesn't sound too great through, I guess that's what you pay for doing OpenGL stuff in the heat. I play with computer vision and image processing stuff on the side, as well as some iOS and watchOS development, so I'm worried that the 12" might be a little underpowered for these applications. The turbo boost frequencies are quite significant though. So many trade offs!
