MBA 13" 1.8GHz i7 DELIVERED

[Peteyy]

i7 is nice. But I'm returning it for i5. The small speed increase (8%) and warmer laptop wasn't worth it to me. But to each is own. Congrats, I'm sure you will enjoy it.

You've decided then This helps me make my choice, would you say the extra money is worth the 256GB? I guessing thats what your getting as your miss's has a 256

The one I'm using is in my signature. So far so good. Heat is better on this one. Performance wise I haven't noticed a big difference. So all in all feels like a good move.

Gotta love people who can't just be happy with what they bought. No, they have to insult people who made a different decision.

Well I had an 11" C2D, and I found it too small as my only computer, a point I qualified if you hadn't paraphrased my quote.

I'm not insulting anyone who has bought an 11", I'm offering advice to anyone who can't decide between the two sizes.

If you have been offended, then deep down perhaps you feel disappointed with yourself for not buying a 13"...

Thanks for your input. Ignore the petulant kids.

All this talk and the person who ordered pizza never actually said what kind it was! Pepperoni? Anchovy? Mighty meaty? Half and half?

That's what I was referring too. The 1.7 i5 to the 1.8 i7, the difference is about 8% faster.

And with the student discount including AppleCare, it is what 5% more.. Maybe 7? Within the justifiable range.

If it is just 8% faster, I think I will stick with i5. Thanks for the info.
