Comparing MacBook Pro and MacBook Air I am planning to purchase a new MacBook Pro 14" 8core cpu, 10core gpu, 8 gig mem, 512gig. I no longer do graphics (photoshop, illustrator, etc.) so I don't need a high performance device. I see that a MacBook Air with about the same specs as the Pro costs considerably less. What would I give up in performance with a MacBook Air? In other words, why is it so much less than a Pro?

Macbook Air vs Macbook Pro Hello, Our daughter will be off to college this fall and we want to get her a new MacBook Air or MacBook Pro. Currently, she uses a pretty well-equipped 2012 MBP that's been fully upgraded with 16gb ram and a 1tb SSD hard drive. The majority of computer loading comes from gaming, largely Minecraft and SIMS, and i've been wondering if the new MacBook Airs can handle those demands or if we need to step up to the MBPs?

There may be no differences FOR YOU.

For what sort of uses, exactly?

What Mac do you have now, and in what ways does it fall short of your expectations?
