Hi all! I've been thinking about switching to Mac from Windows, but can't decide which to get, a 13" Macbook Pro, or a 13" Macbook Air. No upgrades for either as I won't really be able to afford them. But anyway, I'm an art student, so I'll be doing quite a lot of photo editing, graphic design, basically all things Photoshop; I do a lot of video editing as well as a hobby; and a lot of web surfing and media playing. So those are really all I'll be using the laptop for, mostly.
I understand that Macbook Pro is the more powerful laptop, but do I really need all that power or will the Macbook Air suffice? I've been reading a lot of reviews and owners of the Macbook Air say Air is the best. I know portability is a plus for the Air but I won't really be bringing my laptop everywhere I go. Although I still would actually prefer the lighter laptop.
Which one should I get? Can the Macbook Air handle the work I'll be doing with it? Or should I really go for the more powerful, but less portable Pro?
Thanks in advance for your answers!
