Hi All, I am a window user for 10 years, and wish to give MAC a try. with my tight budget, I only got 2 choices so far, which is macbook air 256gb @ RM4999 and macbook pro retina 13'' 128GB @ RM 5099...
 can anyone give me advise how to choose, normally i use it for browsing, watching movie, adobe lightroom... personally more to MBP, but 128GB really enough for daily usage? and the usb can be upgrade in future? Please help sifu  |

Don't get the Macbook Air.
