Hey guys, I am starting a computer science programme in September and I've got a base model MacBook Air 2015 atm. I was really wondering whether I should upgrade to the 2017 MacBook Pro because I'd like to complete the whole 4 years of the course without changing my laptop (not really going to have much money after I enrol and Macs are crazy expensive especially in my country) and I'm not sure my air would be up to the job. I will be using visual studio to code in c# the first year and java and php later on, plus it will be my main machine for pretty much everything. I know that I will be getting a big upgrade in terms of display, speakers, overall build and portability but should I expect a significant jump in performance? I am on the verge, what do you think.. is it worth it? Thank youin advance for your opinions
Edit: I would like to learn swift sometime and I'm quite into the apple ecosystem so that's why I'm not even considering a pc.
