I really wish BB would sell the 16GB variants. 8GB is ok for most use cases, but anyone working with RAW photos will quickly wish they had more memory.

I have an iMac that I love. I do some video editing and use Lightroom on it. I don't plan on using a MacBook a lot for it but occasionally. Will this one do that or should I be looking at the pro?
