Hey i have a question for all of you, i am going to college and i want to buy a macbook. i have an iphone already but im hearing stuff about a tablet.. which will erase macbooks. so i go back to school the 18th n i want to have a macbook by then, but do you think i should wait for the tablet to release info or should i just go buy the macbook
 
The tablet will not "erase" the MacBook. The tablet is going to be touch screen only, meaning that it's not an option as a device that will be used for a lot of typing. Whoever you are getting your information from is not so accurate.
 
so you are saying to get the macbook, because im in college and i will be typeing alot. and i dont want to buy a macbook if the tablet is like the Hp tablet, where they have a keyboard and a touch screen
 
think of the tablet as a big iphone with more capabilities, but whatever it turns out to be, it will not be suited to writing lengthy dissertations.

get a macbook. you won't regret it.
