I most certainly know that, no need to get testy. Just thought the thread was so ridiculous to begin with.

for using it as a laptop.....

Both are laptops, which is best for what purpose ? What compromises are you willing to live with or which compromises can't you live with at all ? What needs to you have to fill ?

Etc.. Incomplete question is incomplete.

I have a low tolerance level for this kind of thread that just wastes space on the forum.

MBA is lighter and has a nicer screen. MBP is far more upgradable, has more ports (like FireWire), better battery life, and will offer much better performance than the MBA with the right upgrades.

I voted for the MBA, but I am not sure how this helps you since you are the one that has to decide what you are going to get, not us.

I voted 4 GB.
Nevertheless I got the 128 GB base model, but ONLY 'cause I got €200 off the base model price.

This is like asking what's better an F150 or a F250 (Only truck names of which I can think, let's not get into a brand war.) It comes down to what each user needs.


PS. I chose 4GB lol. I don't understand why people wouldn't future proof.

I think you've read the question wrong, it's not about 4GB or not, it's about MBA with 4GB or MacBook Pro.

Either way, I think it's a ridiculous question to ask on a MBA forum, of course people will vote for the MBA!! Ask the same question on the MBP forum and I guarantee the swing will be in favour of the MBP.

Is this so the OP can get some sort of self-satisafaction out of thinking he owns something better than somebody else? get a grip.

That would make sense, you could try editing your first post to explain the poll is of a buying advice or technical nature too, might sway people to provide some better advice...?
