We’re not supposed to upsell. I will tell you this: if you’re doing print media, you’ll probably want to opt for the anti-glare display, since it’s truer to print color than the glossy, whichever one you get. power-wise, you can probably run the 2.53. i have that one, and run all those programs nicely. there might be something else you use, that you didnt mention here, that made him aim you towards that 2.66. but it should be ok.
