hey guys i need some opinion on which mac to get. i would be installing bootcamp as there are applications that require windows os to run. i will be using programs like eclipse , MS visual studio ,MS office, websurfing , email , some light gaming.

macbook pro retina
13-inch: 2.4GHz
with Retina display
Specifications
2.4GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
Turbo Boost up to 2.9GHz
4GB 1600MHz memory
128GB PCIe-based flash
Intel Iris Graphics
Built-in battery (9 hours)2
S$ 1,648.00

OR

macbook air
13-inch : 256GB
Specifications
1.3GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 processor
Turbo Boost up to 2.6GHz
Intel HD Graphics 5000
4GB memory
256GB flash
S$ 1,728.00

yes i know the best solution would be to get rMBP with 256gb but its out of my budget. is it possible to install bootcamp on a 128gb mac ? im thinking of partitioning 70gb to windows. or should i just get the air with 256gb?
all opinion are greatly appreciated! :)
