I could not overcome the temptation of an entry level octa-core Mac Pro. Therefore I forked in almost $3K for one with 6 GB RAM and an additional 500 GB drive for time machine backup.
All in all it is impressive as a workstation. I haven't had a chance to compile a program for parallel computing on it though. Anyways this one should last much longer than the fragile MacBook. Desktop units are really built for expansion and durability purposes, suitable for a performance oriented user like me. However for in-bed use MacBook is still in service.
