[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1354517, member: 46727"] I agree with MacDude. The Pro will allow you to upgrade the memory and the hard drive. And if you don't care about the optical drive in the Pro, it can be replaced with an SSD. Both machines have identical graphics except with the fixed system memory of the Air, the GPU will always be limited to 256MB of borrowed memory. The MBP with 8 GB of system memory installed will give you 512MB of borrowed memory for the graphics. [/QUOTE]
