I'm a current college student and I've decided that my Macbook Pro is too much laptop for me to fully utilize. I'm looking for a lighter, slimmer laptop that still covers everything I need it to do.
My uses are pretty similar to a typical student: a lot of word processing, a huge amount of internet browsing (20+ tabs at once), occasional movie viewing, music and potentially some photo editing in the future and some coding.
Right now I have the mid-2012 13" Macbook Pro with the 2.5 Ghz i5 and 4GB RAM, and I'm looking at moving to a 13" Macbook Air with a 1.7 Ghz i5, 4GB RAM and a 128 GB SSD.
Is it a good idea for me to make the switch? Also how do I move over everything from my MBP to my new MBA if I decide to do it, like programs, media and settings?
