If you're asking then it's worth it. This may seem like a lot of money now but in the overall scheme of things, you will be on this computer 10+ hours per day so if it makes you happy just do it. If you have to get a new computer anyway, then you're talking only about $500-700 more. Plus you can do iOS development!
