[QUOTE="Grizzly Adams, post: 7513541, member: 23197"] I got a MacBook Air when I was looking to get a laptop and have been more than happy with it. The new aluminum macbooks are great, and you can pick up the last model for pretty cheap. Don't worry about the RAM, you need significantly less RAM to run Leopard efficiently than Vista, and snow leopard is looking to pare down system usage of RAM even more. 2GB is plenty, but you can always upgrade later if you want. Don't buy RAM from Apple when configuring yours if you buy online, it's outrageous and you can buy it from other sources for way cheaper if you want. The only way you are going to need more RAM is if you are doing really intensive work - such as professional movie and photo editing and I'm doubting that you are going to be making feature length movies in HD from the sounds of it. Apple hard drive upgrades are dirt cheap though. You can get a black macbook for $1099 or a from MacMall.
