What is your opinion?

Should I get a 15” MacBook Pro or a MacBook Air?

I’m looking at the 1700 $ model of the MacBook Pro and the 1800 $ model of the MacBook Air. The major difference between the two is that the MBP comes with 4GB of DDR3 memory, and the MBA comes with only 2GB of memory (non upgradeable). But the MBA comes with a Solid State Drive which will technically make up for the absence of ram. The processing speed of 2.53 (MBP) and 2.13 (MBA) won’t be much of a difference I am sure.

The MBA is cute and small and can fit anywhere.
The MBP is heavier but has a great screen and more power.

Ugh.
