Macbook Air vs. Macbook Pro

[Daniboy]

USB ports run at a standard 5V/500mA, or 900mA for USB3 devices.

The advantage of the old Pro is being able to put lots of storage in (2x SATA drives) cheaply. A disadvantage is that even if you use SSDs with the Pro, they will always be slower than the PCIe SSDs in the Air.

Cool, thanks bro!

just dish out the extra couple hundred and go with the macbook.
you'll avoid kicking yourself later, lol.

I'm going with the Macbook. Question is Air or Pro.

Pro Retina - thank me later.

And your processor will always be 2 years older.

lol I is way too expensive here, but why?

For simply using Traktor and absolutely nothing more (I already have a i7, 8GB, 1TB Sony Vaio which I use for daily stuff), why would it be better to have a Pro Retina?

Maybe the resolution? Buy I'm just using 2 Decks, any normal resolution on a 13" screen is good enough for me.

Why, why, why??? hahahaha I'm so confused, I've never had or extendedly used a Macbook in my life, I have no clue if the Air is a bag of shite or if its awesome...

The Air has the same PCle SSD that the Pro Retina does right? 16GB RAM is an overkill and i5 processor seems enough, so why retina?

And your processor will always be 2 years older.

So between Non-Retina Pro and Air, the Air is definately the winner right?
