Hi guys, I'm planning to get the MacBook Air but don't know much about Macbooks (am a fan of iPhone/iPads).

I'm aware the current MacBook air in market is Air7, if anyone could advise if I should wait for the new model? or maybe the Air7's just launched?

Also, if I'm planning to get a few (maybe 4-5 units), are there any possibilities of me getting some discounts somewhere?

Thanks and appreciate your feedback!

I don't think that there will be a refresh lineup for MBA.
Get a MB12" instead.

where did you read about Air7? tongue.gif

i doubt there will be any new MBA. the 13" macbook pro is pretty much a replacement already

sad to know if the MBA's being discontinued.

the MB's are 12" which appears to be a little too small for my liking...guess have to go with the MBP 13.3" then...

anyway when did the current MBP 13.3" launch?

hmm thanks for the input guys, so which would should I consider the MB or MBP? price range should be about the same or + -... need more feedback from end users.. tyvm

EDIT: I was comparing the processor and it seems like its quite a huge leap despite the light weight on MB

MB

◦1.1GHz dual-core Intel Core m3, 1.2GHz dual-core Intel Core m5 or 1.3GHz dual-core Intel Core m7 processor - Turbo Boost up to 3.1GHz

MBP

◦2.7GHz or 2.9GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 or 3.1GHz dual-core Intel Core i7 processor - Turbo Boost up to 3.4GHz
