Hi all.
I have just purchased an imac desk-top computer but in order for me to undergo
one-to-one training in my area, I need to buy a second hand portable device.
Once I have a recomendation, a friend can have a look on Ebay.
I'd like a mac lap-top and if possible, running El Capitan.
My sens
Hi Andy,
Depends on what you want to do. A Macbook Air would be a fine option
especially for a secondary machine. Probably low enough on the cost especially
on the second hand market.
A pro will give you more horse power but if you already have that IMac I think
you’re probably in good shape
e
perhaps something better to consider?
Very best wishes.
Andy.

Oh Scott.
I do need a portable device because I'm going on a 14 day hotel trip later this
year to train with my new dog, and I simply could not stand being stuck in a
hotel room with nothing. Also, I'm hoping to have a holiday
there
perhaps something better to consider?
Very best wishes.

Hi, Andy,
If you want to have a true portable computer, the Mac Mini is not for you. It
is basically designed to be used with a separate monitor and keyboard.
The Mac Book Aire is lightweight and is very portable but I don't know how well

The minimum hardware list for Sierra seems purely punitive to me. They’ve got
support for a MacBook, but not the Pro of the same vintage and essentially the
same 2009 hardware specs?
El Cap was an all right release, but I wouldn’t be going out and buying a Mac
that couldn’t run the latest. In
