I'm thinking about getting either a MacBook Pro(13"), MacBook Air or Ipad2(wi-fi). I would really like an Ipad2 just for the portability, but sort of leaning toward the MacBook Pro, because its got a CD/DVD drive. I see Best Buy has new versions and old versions. I've read the specs on both and really don't see much of a difference. Any advice or input? BTW, I do have an Iphone 4g. Thank you

I'm an electronic's person - I love my gadgets. I've gotten into photography, so I'd like to do some photo editing. I spend alot of time on the 'net'. I like my itunes, I watch some tv/movies.

I'd go with the MacBook, then.

I went with a MacBook Pro for the CD/DVD drive, it's been a great choice for me, but I'm not too techy.
We're getting iphones today, makes me glad I've already got a Mac at home.

Yeah, I'd go with the Macbook. The air...while it's really cool that they can get it that small, I think it's a bit pointless, because the thing had better have a ton of USB ports.
The iPad is also pretty cool, but that's mostly because it has this protein visualization app-thingy...At least I don't leave slime trails.
