[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1939928, member: 56379"] Just to be sure...is this the 2012 Retina display or 2012 non-Retina display model? With the specs given could be either one. But if it has an actual spinner hard drive...then certainly the non-Retina model. 16GB RAM & 15" display are nice. I would say play with it a while (couple weeks)...to see if it's got enough speed to do the things you want (and high enough macOS version for your needs). I have a couple 2011 Apple computers I use off/on...and have found them to be increasingly too slow (mostly due to the graphics side of things). - Nick [/QUOTE]
