Default HAN tell me about the Macbook Air

I'm trying to get it for the wifey for her bday this weekend. She's going to mainly use it for websurfing and watching movies online.

Don't get the air and get a pro.

Let me ask you, why did you think of the air?

The only thing that i'd be worried about the macbook air is the fact that it hasn't been refreshed in a while and is very over due for one the specs on it are very out of date. If you can wait, i'd wait. But I suggest a different macbook instead.

Don't want you to buy one and then 2 weeks later the new model comes out.

you could wait another 10 months or so til they start their "student discounts" again and see if she qualifies as a med student
