I'm debating between an air and a mbpro. I'll mostly use this for internet, excel, and iphoto. Is 4gb going to be enough for these uses? I have an iMac with 8gb and it really screams.

How much better is the screen on the mba? I played with both at the apple store and I didn't really notice a difference? I do like the air since it was just updated. I figure if the mbpro's came out with something really cool i could sell and wouldn't be out that much money.

One reason why i chose MBA to MBP is

not only it is light-weighted with reasonably performance,

it is also the most beautiful "state of art" machine Apple has ever built. :D:apple:

I believe the MBA will work well for you. 4GB will be fine. I have a 2010 Matte/Hi-Res 15" i7 MBP, as well as both an 11" & 13" MBA. While I find the displays on my new MBA's very nice, I truly prefer the matte MBP Display Best.
