I still want a mack book pro as I don't trust  solid state drives. All they
are are huge fjash drives that are waiting to die a violent death. and I
want a 500 gig ssd drive and I won't be able to get that in an air.

Take care.

really would be no category between the Mac Book Air and the Mac Book Pro.
You can get an Air for the same price as the old Mac Book, and it's a much
better system now.  Mike's podcast was prior to Apple's complete overhaul of
the Mac Book Air at the same time Lion was released.

Mike Arrigo says on a podcast of his that it is 64GB which is not alot. Im
comparison I wonder how much the Mac book had before apple discontinued it.

to stop the mac book line. Because as a consumer that was going to be the
Mac that I would buy but since that's no longer around then I would proably
go for the Mac Book Pro option.
