MBP or Thinkpad P70

PostTue Mar 21, 2017 5:33 pm

Hey guys,

I'm in the process of buying the Ursa Mini Pro, but I'm also needing a new mobile workstation. I've always been a mac user, but given the latest specs I'm considering jumping ship. I've been looking at the Thinkpad P70 (spec'd to the max: Intel Xeon E3-1575m processor, 64GB DDR4 2133MHz ECC SoDIMM (16GBx4) Ram, NVIDIA Quadro M5000M 8GB graphics card, 1TB SSD PCIe-NVMe)

Now, on paper the Thinkpad absolutely blows the MBP out of the water, but it just pains me to leave mac (they've got their claws in). My question is, do you think the MBP (fully spec'd) is absolutely fine to work with this camera, or is the higher end video files too much? Are people working fine with the MBP's, and if so, what is your workflow?

Any advise would be much appreciated.
