For those who understand computer components - how does the theorized 2018 macbook air compare to the current 2017 non-touchbar macbook pro? I guess the new air would use the Whiskey Lake processors - how to they compare to the current processers in the non-touchbar pro? How about cooling - which is likely to run cooler?
What I really want in my next computer is a 13 inch retina screen, multiple ports, fairly cool (cool enough to use in shorts without burning my legs) and decent battery life (say 5 or 6 hours while using Word and with multiple browser windows open). I don't think I need the absolute best processor out there, but I'd like to keep it for maybe 5 years, so it can't be a slouch.
I know it is all speculation at this point, but I'm trying to get a feel for where this new air might sit in the mac laptop spectrum
