School just started and I'm in the market for a good laptop that is small and light (Netbook)? My textbooks weigh a TON and I'd rather not carry a laptop around that just adds to that. Weight and size are my main concerns.
What is it for? I'll mainly just be using it between classes to browse, compose some word documents/powerpoints. Light and reasonable use, keeping its hardware in mind. I've been looking at Windows options and most laptops that have specs similar to the Macbook Air aren't all that cheap either, so I'm thinking of taking the plunge into Mac OS. This is going to be the first Apple product I will purchase myself.
I'm looking into the 11inch Model:
1.6GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5
4GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM
128GB Flash Storage
Should I upgrade to the i7? And should I grab Apple care?
Also does anyone have any experience with this device? How's it? Thanks.
