Hi Folks
Since this is my first post I'd better tell you a little bit about me.
I'm a 62 yr. old fart that has decided that I want to find something better than a PC even though what I have has worked for me all this time. But I'm fed up with MS and absolutely hate Win7!!!!
I do nothing but browse the web, send e-mails to my far away friends, and google everything.
I also like to take and store photos from my other hobby of trains and model railroading. So far I'm not into too many videos.
I'm trying to decide if a simple Mac Book will work for me, or if I should upgrade to a basic 13" Pro. For the extra price I will double the ram, have the extra protection of an aluminum case, have a back lit keyboard which is nice, and have an SD lot.
Any thoughts or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Russ
