Hi Cris, the MacBook Air would be my recommendation. It's light and small, very easy to carry around. It's plenty fast for browsing the web. I've had my Air since 2013. I may replace it this year or next, but as much as anything that's because I like new toys. :) It is in no way obsolete. I did however, spend the extra money to max out the specs. One thing about the air is that what you buy is what you will have for the rest of the life of the computer. So the time to add extra storage or memory, is when you purchase the unit. I started out on a MacBook Pro, but have been very happy having switched to the Air. Cheers, Donna
