Help! I really need some insight in deciding!
First time buying a mac and I consider this a long term investment (at least 3 years).
considering the macbook pro 13inch vs. macbook air 13inch (both base line models)
I am a computer science Eng student. do a lot of programing. have a PC so I can use that for compatibility issues. I am really big on portability. not much of a gamer. occasional video editing. I watch a lot of youtube videos and stream videos online. I know that could be flash intensive.
so, performance wise will both be good for the long run?
I have also read articles that say the updates to the 13in MBP are disappointing (sounds like air is the new 13inch pro?). both reviews from CNET

I don't want to regret in the long run
