The disk space is a premium on that new model and any desktop would be a better idea for grinding on video editing.
Many get a desktop for the hard work and use the laptop for mobile work.

I currently own a 15" mid 2009 Macbook Pro which i absolutely love, but im wondering if its time to upgrade. I am currently studying IT and multimedia at uni and with the programs i use (garageband, final cut with HD film, photoshop, flash, after effects etc and i multitask a fair bit) my Macbook is getting slower and slower. I considered upgrading the ram but the maximum on this computer is 4gb which i already have. My question is should I buy the new Macbook Pro Retina Display ?
