with $1200, you can get refurb revA mba. it's brand new actually at least looks.
if portable is most important for you.

I would not even pay $800 for a new Rev A SSD. That was a disaster. I can say that because I owned a 1.8 SSD and know the true flaws in that machine. The Rev. B is 3x the computer Rev A was/is.

I would only get a Rev B Air. and I would not pay $2000 for a 1.8/120 when performance wise I can get much more computer for less in a uMB, 4GB RAM and SSD swap. heavier but more powerful. Like I said, I just need VMWare to run fast and be light as I will carry it with me everywhere.

If I could get a 1.8/128 SSD Air for say 1700 I would buy it but not even on eBay can I get it that low and that is already $400 over budget right now. I may just wait until after WWDC or later this month when I will have more money and see if anything gets updated. Right now I am using my wife's whitebook.
