At first I wanted the MacBook Air 11" because I like small devices. I had an iPad and it was too big so I bought a mini and love it. But than i found the 11 inch air too small and thought the 13" was nicer and that I'd upgrade it to 8GB. Than friends told me id be better off getting the MacBook Pro non retina 13" without external cd drive since it is a lot lighter and has some form of retina.. And has 500 GB flash storage. Whatever that means.
The air appeals to me cause it has 12 hour battery life, is portable, light, crisp, not heavy and cute. It suits my needs! I like my devices light.
I need a laptop mainly to browse online like forums, listen to music, skype with my husband, and that's pretty much it. My main computer was my husbands Mac mini but I travel a lot and need my own main system so I'm opting for a lap top. I'm also going to be taking classes soon so it'd be nice to not use my iMac at my house in Canada. I don't do gaming or graphics so that's not important.. I mainly will use it for skyping, listening to music (need a main stage for my music also for my iPod to collect music,) browsing the web (forums, gossip sites LOL,) and for Microsoft word since I'll be using it for online classes!
Should I get the MacBook Air 13" upgrade to 8GB OR the MacBook Pro 13" non retina display with no cd external drive 4GB?!
Also, retina does no interest me, thank you!
