Looking at getting the Macbook air from 2011 off the refurb store:
Refurbished MacBook Air 1.6GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
Originally released July 2011
11.6-inch (diagonal) high-resolution LED-backlit glossy widescreen display
4GB memory
128GB flash storage
Thunderbolt port with support for up to 2560-by-1600 resolution
FaceTime camera
Intel HD Graphics 3000
My use will be to run either Parallels or Fusion to run a Windows version of Quickbooks, and also run Excel (Mac or Windows) at the same time. Plus typical stuff like web browsing, email, etc. No photo/video editing, no major games.
Will this system stumble when a few Excel windoes, plus virtualization and quickbooks and a web browser or two are all open at once?
Thanks
