Need a Mac laptop recommendation for trip

When you say the "MagSafe Airline adapter included", do you mean that you ordered one, because they are not included you have to order it as an option. Might want to verify your order. Also, unless your flying Business Class, you might not have access to an outlet.

Congrats & have fun!!

Thanks. I didn't get an email after my order when I wrote that, I just meant it was selected as an option. But we are at least flying business class (the leader said maybe not coach class), so maybe I'll get use of it. I travel with my family a bunch, and we normally use airplanes, so it'll come in handy more than once.

The 200 GB HD is slower than the 160GB, is 4.2k RPM which maske your machine almost a 20% slower in every task. (Boot up, opening documents, booting apps, everything with disk acces).
Just my 2 cents.

Aah, that don't bother me enough to think back on it. I might need all this space, though. But thanks!

wow, that sounds like a great opportunity! Get a MacBook. It's cheap, powerful, and has the smallest screen Apple offers on a laptop (but it's still quite large.) Make sure you get a power adapter that will fit into the plugs in the country you travel to, because they are very different in different countries.
