I just have a MacBook. I guess they don't make them any more. I'll ask my son which one he would recommend. We got him a MacBook Pro last summer. I'll see what he thinks users like you or I would need:p He'll know, he's a smart cookie!

That's great Betsi....thank you!

The air doesn't have a DVD/cd port.

Really! Must be why it's so thin:rolleyes:

I didn't know that either. I've been on the site, but it has so much information that you don't get it all. Does that make sense?

Michael said to get the MacBook Pro. It does have a dvd drive. Not the one that just came out with retina display, but the regular one. The Air and the NEWEST Pro don't have dvd/cd drive because something about the space and the cooling fan. They have an attachment you have to buy for a dvd. He said he wouldn't get the Pro with the retina display because they just came out and he doesn't think they have the bugs worked out yet.

Tell Michael thank you!!! I appreciate all the information. I'm going to go look at them this week, I hope.
