<p>I don’t know a lot of things about computers, but I will say that I’m saving up for a Pro in college rather than an Air because the Air had two deal-breakers for me: 1, no CD/DVD drive (as someone who is dedicated to buying the album rather than digital downloads, this was awful to me), and 2, I HATE how typing on it feels. I plan to double major in [still choosing between a couple fields] and English, so this is very important to me. IMO, the Pro is much more comfortable for typing. However, you should go try them both out. </p>
