Hi all!
So my HP laptop has officially died. Like, the motherboard committed suicide died (it was almost 10 years old).
Needless to say, I am in need of a new laptop. Here is my struggle.
I have always used PC. Desktop was a PC, laptops have all been PC's. I use an IPhone, and have for years. (LOVE IT..so much I skipped on waiting for my upgrade and got myself a gold shiny 6!)
I am thinking of going over to Mac completely. I have been comparing the Air and the Pro...my budget doesn't allow for the highest end, but I know that the Mac's are very good machines, so even with a lower end one, it's still getting my money's worth.
I am an event planner and producer. I'm on the road a lot. I use my laptop to email, internet, watch movies on flights/road, layout design (not crazy graphic, but enough that I need to actually see in color what I am doing), spreadsheets, documents, and the occasional graphic design situation (not really skilled but I can do the basics). Some of my clients do send me their documents on a CD/DVD versus a flash drive, so while an internal drive would be nice, I could get an external if I needed too.
Realizing that this is stepping into the Mac vs PC debate, what would you experts recommend and why? For Mac, do you prefer Pro or Air and why?
