i agree you get an air... 13" good for you... if can top up i would suggest get 8GB ram if you plan use it 3-4 years.... if you are student you are eligible to get the educational pricing.

Education Pricing - Apple Store

Go for the Mac if you are looking for long battery lives  nod.gif

Apple

MacBookAir 11", i5-4250U + Intel HD5000 + 256GB SSD@RM3599[1.08kg], 4GB, backlit keyboard, Mac OSX

I would recomend going for the MBA 13, 11" might be a bit too small for university assignments which sometimes require some split screening or even excel spreadsheets etc.

Thanks guys ! yeah, i like the good build with solid performance of macs. it'll be with me for years i hope.... i'm gonna get the 13" 8gb ram version, just a question, do stores stock up on macbook airs with 8 GB ram and what docs are needed to purchase with student pricing? biggrin.gif
