[QUOTE="jonnychoi, post: 1354449, member: 232930"] Hi guys, I have a REALLY old computer, an early 2007 13" Macbook with an 80 gig hard drive and an Intel GMA 950 graphics card. I am going to upgrade in the near future, but I am stuck with a dilemma: Should I get the Macbook Pro or the Macbook Air? I am debating getting either a 13" Pro or 13" Air. They are in the same price range. I really like the compact size of the air and its flash memory; however, I can only afford the 128 gig flash. I plan to run boot camp or VMWare Fusion on my laptop, so I don't know if 128 gigs will be enough. I will also be having games and intensive programs like photoshop, so I am seriously doubting the wisdom of getting a 128 gig Macbook Air. That is the only thing that is stopping me from getting it. It all boils down to this: Should I sacrifice more than 350 gigs of drive space for the compactness and speed of the air, or should I have more space with the clunky Pro? I'm on the fence here. HELP! Thanks! [/QUOTE]
