MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Just been burgled again and Macbook nicked. I'm tempted to get an Air purely from the lightness point of view as carry it around a fair bit.
I tend to only use Office/showing v lightweight film stuff so am a lightweight user. It's used often for showing clients stuff so screen quality and battery length v important.
The Macbook obviously did the job seamlessly - are there are downsides to an Air for a light user (it's the 13" one)?
Thanks
Screen quality > Macbook 13" Retina
Battery > Macbook Air.
On a side note, did you have find my mac enabled on the stolen Macbook?

I had to deal with a colleague being burgled when he was away and they left his Macbook, Playstation etc and just took cash and a credit card.
The Police said that was normal as computers etc were too easily traceable, so laptops just get left. Or maybe that's just a Cambridge thing.....
I had a similar choice to make a year or so ago and went for the air. The screen is higher res on the Pro but that wasn't a deciding factor for me. For the same price the Air had a bigger SSD, was lighter with a better battery. Graphics not as good but still enough to play HD video and do a bit of editing so no problems there.
For the future its worth installing Prey. A mate had his Air nicked and knew who had it and where within a few hours. Police went and got it for him a couple of days later.
thanks. A buddy said 'Don't get the earlier version of the Air, the latest one's much better' (but he failed to be able to say in what way!)
How do I find ,Find My Mac on my mac?
And have Prey hopefully doing its magic, but it's been 12+ hours now so not too hopeful
I have an Air and had a Macbook. I [i]really[/i] appreciate the battery life and weight of the Air, but haven't used a new Macbook so can't comment on new displays. Can't really say I feel at a loss.
