So I finally gave in, and ended up purchasing a new to me but refurbished 13" MBA with the I5 1.7ghz, 4gb Ram, and 128gb SSD. Im going to test the waters with it and see if its fits for my lifestyle, if not Ill be considering a return and pay the difference the I7 1.8ghz. Ive played around with plenty of them at the apple store, and other stores aswell. Thats nowhere near real life situation when you exactly need to do intensive work on the computer. Im soo excited to be getting it either Monday or Tuesday, I always wanted a MBA since its first 2008 release but being 17 at the time didnt have any benefits into saving to purchase one. And then the 2010 Models came out but I held out for the Sandy Bridge Processors instead. I hope I made a good choice. But either way I do plan on reselling it when the new updated versions come out later on this year. I have a couple questions to ask about the MBA since it is my first Mac ever.
1.) I heard that these computers arent as prone to viruses compared Windows Based computers. So what would be the best possible route for Malware and Virus Protection for Free?
2.)What are some good settings and apps to get rid of to maximize my Macs full potential?
3.) Does the I5 1.7ghz with 128gb SSD compared the I5 1.7ghz with 256gb SSD have any substantial difference in speed?
4.) Will Frostwire, or UTorrent work well with this MBA if I have a anti-virus app referenced from question 1?
5.) I have a 4th gen Ipod Touch 64gb with roughly 62gb of music on it that I received from a friend last year. How can I take the music from the Ipod and put it onto my MBAs SSD?
Thanks in advance for any help. Sorry if these questions have been answered before. But I dont have a computer at home to research this information. Thats why I purchased my Mac.
