      Also Firefox, should I still use that?


      Well for security there is a firewall and a option to encrypt your hard drive called File Vault so that if your Mac ever got stolen no one could read the data on it.

      You can use Firefox, I have switched to using Safari since there are now extensions.

            Cool that file vault sounds good, also are the extensions on Safari as useful as the ones on FF?? Ie NoScript, AdBlock Plus, Taco etc.

              The main ones I use for privacy like Ghostery and adblock work well.

                  Does anybody have any experience with these, I know iBreakbeat will have some info for me.

                  Should've probably gone with the Pro if you're spending that much. You don't have much room at all for expansion with the Air.

                    Yeah, like others have said.

                    Macbook Pro>Macbook Air.

                    The new ones are supposed to be crazy fast, plus they have the new Thunderbolt port which is supposed to transfer files at 10gbps.
