Get the one that suits your needs. For portability get a MacBook Pro or MacBook Air. For a desktop and large screen, get the iMac. If you have a nice computer monitor, check out the Mac Mini. It is a real computer that is very small.

The standard MacBook Pro is for the user who wants a portable computer that doesn't sacrifice a lot. The MacBook Pro isn't as fast as an iMac desktop system, but it can be faster than the MacBook Air at certain tasks. And anT iMac is great for both novices and demanding users. It can handle general-purpose and heavy-duty tasks equally well. It's ideal for someone who needs to buy a complete computer setup (keyboard, mouse or trackpad, and display) and wants to maximize workspace efficiency.

If you just want to use it at home, an iMac is a better choice. If you may need to take it to other places for using, a MacBook pro is a better choice. Anyway, it depends on your needs.
