Apple MBA vs MBP

[Keval-B]

Hello friend,
I am college student, and going to buy an Apple Notebook either the newly launched MAC BOOK AIR or the MACBOOK PRO laptop. I have a Apple iPhone with the iTune application which works great, but have no sort of any knowledge about the Apple computer system. This will be my first MAC computer. I am not so much interest on the latest technology. So, I am just quoting about the computer features and the specifications. I am going to buy it for basically for my projects regarding my study. So is a good choice? Any one is there who can suggest me to which one is good one, with the features and the specifications? Any other information will be helpful for me.

I have a 13’’ MACBOOK pro, it greatly appreciated me with its features and the look. I read the requirements for that you are going to buy the MAC book, so I think the MACBOOK Pro will be the good one. The main feature is that there is a double hard disk space to store the data. It is very sleek look and very handy to carry it. It having the more powerful processor with the long (4hr) battery life. In my opinion it is a very versatile machine which fulfill all the required tasks. The MAC BOOK PRO will be the right choice,

The benchmarking of the MAC BOOK PRO is continuous in bare feats to compute with the other system, in the both the machines that you mentioned in your post which one of them you are going to buy, are up-against on the benchmarking and the breakdown of the. The MACBOOK AIR having the solid drive, the processor also the GPU those are its advantage. The newly launched MACBOOK AIR cannot be compared with the MACBOOK PRO. Its so small, comfortable to carry, great looks, super thin also it giving the good performance, if you will go for MACBOOK AIR. i suggest you to go for the MACBOOK AIR, which is good in its features as well as the great look of the laptop.
