Hi,
Was wandering past the local Apple reseller today and popped in for a gander and am impressed with the size of the MBA 11"....
I have just had to go back to the UK for a week or so and took my 13" MB 2008 with me (recently updated!) and performance wise was fine but as I had to carry other stuff too it hardly came out of my bag. I carry camera kit too and it was all a bit heavy and unwieldly especially in the airport (I overloaded myself really badly even by my standards!) So, considering picking up a 2nd hand MBA as a travel computer but unsure as I will have to obviously spend money but hopefully with working wifi in the house sometime soonish might well get some use. The point of taking a laptop that becomes a real hassle to get in and out of a bag got annoying as it was a bit of a fight at the security!!
Don't want to spend new price or rMB price for what will be 2nd/3rd everyday computer. Nothing particularly heavy needed performance wise and have never bought a mac second hand before. Bare in mind I'm in Hungary and buying anything will be complicated and from a distance unless new (don't think the local reseller do refurbs or used). (2012 MBP i7 at home for any serious stuff).
Cheers!
