Hello. My name's Alessandro. I live in Italy and got a fantastic MacBook Air four months ago. It's the 256GB Model (it costs 1.500 here, like 1.990$).
I really like it, but I am having some problems with Adobe Premiere Pro. It takes 30-40 seconds to load my Xbox 360 15 minutes long records (720p). it freezer and sometimes cannot preview smoothly.
I think this is due to 4GB of RAM. I don't think it's a CPU (even if it's kind of slow 1.8ghz i5) or GPU problem.
So I could sell this for 1.300 or 1.400 being in perfect conditions and add 100 or 200 euros to buy a new one.
I don't know which MacBook's better for me. I need a MacBook for portability. I cannot spend more than 1600 euros. And it's kind of pissing off because for only 1.000 I could get a Intel Core i7, 8GB of RAM, dedicated GPU FULL HD Windows notebook. But I like MacBooks because they sync with iPad and iPhone.
I like the MacBook Pro 13" (for 1.500 you get a Intel Core i7, 8GB of RAM). But it has a lower resolution screen and a 5.400 rpm hard disk.
I like the Retina 13" MBP but it has only 128GB of memory and a stupid GPU for that 4 million pixel resolution.
I'm really confused. What should you do? I like Airs but seriously they cannot edit videos. I think.
Thanks a lot!
