If Apple would let me exchange laptops, in the unlikely situation: See MacBook Lemon thread. (http://forums.applenova.com/showthread.php?t=29398)
Even if I can't get Apple to do as I'd like them to do, considering what I need to do according to the following criteria, what option would be adequate if not more than suitable? What option should I take?
If I have the money, would it be worth it to get the SSD one at all? Would the better speed and such help? My last PowerBook did die from a HDD failure due to dropping it once so that is kinda in the back of my mind, is the 64GB too small if I get a timecapsule too?
But really, all in all is the upgraded MacBook getting if I can afford or is it just extraneous and serve little purpose?
Regardless I do plan to get an external HD for at least my movies, my must is less than 5gb and I mostly just browse, work in the field with wifi, use iphoto, ical and type with iWorks.
I always like having ical, mail and itunes on at all time with spaces. I also make my background change every five minutes. One thing in favor for the laptop is that in my business, ascetics are very important, but not more important than practicality. At least if I get it, I could get the new white iphone to match it... well as much as white can match aluminum, better than black though! ;)
In other words with a slower processor speed and only two gigs of ram, would a MacBook Air not only meet expectations, but exceed them a bit?
This too would be my primary machine.
Thanks in advance once again.
