My son has a 2011 Macbook Pro with a 2.3ghz i5 processor. He needs a new computer as his has taken a beating in college. He is asking for a Macbook Air.
When I look at the specs for a new 13" Macbook Air, they seem to be worse than his 2011 Macbook Pro. The Air is i5 1.6ghz vs his 2.3ghz i5. Am I missing something? Is that older Macbook faster than the new? He does a lot of audio and video editing. I would go to a Pro but he specifically asked for the Air.
Thoughts?
