I will be starting college next fall as a neuroscience major and I am torn between purchasing a MacBook Pro vs. a MacBook Air. Which would be a better choice considering I would be using it to take notes, creating documents, presentations etc.? I am not a person involved in heavy gaming, or major creative things. Just simple stuff but I do however spend countless hours doing research. Help!
MacBook Pro
Personally the Airs have no appeal for me. Limited hard drive space (actuall no hard drive, it is all flash storage space) which can not be upgraded.
Airs are to small unless you get the 13" model and for that money you can get a nice 13" MBP or even a 15" model.
For me an Air would be a second or third computer but not my only computer.
If you are taking it to class for notetaking, you will appreciate how light the MacBook Air is compared to the MacBookPro.
I would go MacBook Air for general computing use.
Get the 4GB version, either 11" or 13", as is your preference, and as large an SSD drive as you can afford.
What would be a better choice between a MacBook Pro and a MacBook Air?
