I looked at the 13" Air and it is very nice.
Here is my dilemma. The Air is using somewhat dated processor and graphics technology. Considering when it was released and the technology being used on the Pros, it is not unreasonable to expect a replacement, maybe in a couple of months.
I wish they had an Air with the Pro processor & graphics.
So you say get a Pro. Indeed the 13" Pro is an option; however, its resolution is limited to 1280x800 compared to 1440x900 on the Air (the 15" Pro has 1440x900). Also, the Pro weighs 4.5 lbs compared to 3 lbs for the Air. One might replace the 500GB Pro hard drive with a 256GB or 512GB SSD drive, but now we are starting to talk big bucks! I do not know how much it would reduce the Pro's weight either. My guess, from specs of available internal drives is a reduction in weight of 1.25 lbs. If correct, that gets the weight of the Pro down to around 3.25 lbs which makes it competitive in terms of weight, but not in terms of cost and resolution. I have no idea what noticeable difference 1280x800 versus 1440x900 would make when using Photoshop on a raw file.
The current Air certainly does the job. I just hate to pay market price for technology that might soon to be upgraded.
Those chocolates just keep on causing uncertainty.
