Thanks Ann, I think Mountain Lion itself takes up about 30 GB or more, so, a
128 GB flash should leave more than ample disk space even with a 30-40GB
dropbox account.

Hello Phil,
I have a MacBook Air with similar specifications, except that mine has an
older processor and dates from 2011. It's a lovely fast little machine and
my favourite of all the Macs I've owned.
Cheers,
Anne

I'm seriously considering purchasing a MAC Air 11 inch with the only
upgrade being a 128 flash drive from the default 64 GB flash drive.
It has:
1.7 I5 processor
4GB 1600 MHZ ram
128GB flash drive
My questions:
is this sufficient to do basic internet, mail etc plus iWork apps like
Pages and Numbers? or, do I need a ram upgrade to 8GB? I'm not looking
for a power machine, just something to do basic stuff plus simple word
processing and spreadsheet during travel.
the 13 inch has a 1.8 I5 processor with upgrades to I7 series, but I'm
not yet convinced that is necessary for my needs.
Any thoughts or ideas, educated or otherwise welcome.
