So hello. I'm actually new to the forums here, I've always read but never posted so I am starting today! By the end of the summer I will hopefully be buying a new MacBook. I am a high school student who has always enjoyed Apple products and enjoyed them but I've never gotten around to getting a Mac. So by August I will hopefully be getting one!
However I am stuck in a weird situation. I will most likely be buying through the education store for obvious reasons (discounted products!) I do have an iPad and love it but feel like I would benefit from also having a computer as well. I will most likely be using it for word processing, minor gaming (Sims geek here), web browsing, and just storing my iTunes library and photography I may take. I am unsure in weather or not I would want to get a MacBook Air or a MacBook Pro. I am definitly leaning towards a MPB because of the SuperDrive and the fact that I can get a 13in. model for the same price as the base model MBA. And well in my case I like bigger and better things.
Wat are your opinions on it? I also know that the MBP sports a larger hard drive which is a plus for me because I like to save almost everything and I do also use creative suite applications.
