I bought a 2GB Base 13" macbook air about a week ago, so it's still returnable.
I was very happy with it, until I tried to edit a large Excel doc (1500 rows) and the beachball is very frequent with max CPU spikes very often.
I see that I have two choices -
Swap for a macbook pro and pocket the £100 difference,
Upgrade to 4GB Air, for an extra £100
Really I think the Pro would be portable enough for me, but I do really like how light the air feels on my lap.
Can anybody pitch in with excel related experience, on this?
