Say guys, I'm wondering if the MB12" can run engineering simulation software e.g. Matlab, Labview? And not heat up considerably.

I know it is fanless, thus my concern is the machine heating up when running long simulations.

Having said that, I have seen YouTube videos of MB12" handling video editing with aplomb using the Final Cut Pro software. I'm not into video editing but I think this shows just how much one can underestimate this machine just because the specs may look subpar.

Go for MacBook Pro anytime. The new 13-inch MacBook Pro is a lot lighter and smaller form factor than 2015 version.

12-inch macbook is not really cheap for its form factor. 13-inch MacBook Pro is certainly more all-rounded given its price.

Just ordered the MacBook yesterday from machines for 4299. Got one is space gray!

It makes so much sense to get one at this price, especially for the 512GB M5 version! Replacing my 5 year old rMBP 15” with this.

Apple quoted me 3k to fix the battery, speakers and fans of my MacBook. Nah!

Question;
I have a work laptop, so all is good there
I’m gonna use the laptop for music, YouTube, Safari, and Lightroom with occasional iMovie

Would this work?
Based on YouTube, iMovie seems to be very smooth!

Lightroom I’m more curious about

Thanks!
