I need to buy a Macbook Pro quite soon, to be able to do computer graphics when away from home. I will equip it with Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. I think the 15" is way too heavy to carry in a backpack, so I'll be aiming for the 13" one.

I found this one locally. What about these specs?

Z0QN-MF8405Z0QN-MF8405 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7 (Broadwell) 16GB of Onboard 1866 MHz LPDDR3 RAM 256GB PCIe-Based Flash Storage Integrated Intel Iris Graphics 6100

Any other things I should be looking to have in this Macbook?

That’s a mostly optimized rMBP 13” - you can get a processor bump to a little higher, but where I’d likely focus on the most would be storage. I’ assuming graphics work would take up a fair amount of space, so you might want to see about finding one with 512GB or even 1TB.

Mine’s older and therefore lower-spec’d than that (about 2.5gHZ, 8 MB RAM, 256GB HD), but it’s still a very responsive machine. For professional graphics, I’d go as high end as I could reasonably afford.

I would think you would want an Audio Technica AT3482P .7 mil Conical Cartridge .
