Hi Janina, Yeah I'm currently split on what to purchase as a replacement machine.
The fully worked 2017 air would do the job, And has the to me better keyboard but then the 2018 pro 13" has more ram, faster processor and USB-C, However everything has down sides, the newer pro has the butterfly keyboard which I'm not personally a fan of and will cost more for new adaptors but it should survive 2 years longer in the life of simons products. My 2013 air has now lasted 6 years, Can I get that from a pro. -----Original Message----- From: 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> Sent: Thursday, 6 June 2019 11:39 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: mac book pro 2017 Hey, Simon. My wish for you is that someone returned these machines because they'd heard there shouldn't be a boot chime any longer! <grin> Janina PS: I looked at the 2017 Air machines still available today. I'm disappointed. It looks to me like the only advantage of leaving my 2014 Air for a 2017 model is a measly 4Gb more RAM. That's ain't enough today, imo. I'm back to looking at the small Thinkpad X1 Carbon machines for laptops. I realize that would leave me out of the Apple eco system. I am finding the new minis very attractive, so perhaps I'm thinking transitionally. You all have gotten under my skin enough so that I don't really want to leave Apple out of my life. Heck, Safari has become my favorite gui browser in recent months. Go figure.
