Hello Steph,
The MacBook Air has no DVD drive, no FireWire, just two USB ports. On the plus
side, it's incredibly thin and light.
If you have no other computer, the MacBook Pro is a much better machine, and
you can have a much bigger hard drive in it too.

Right, it's a matter of what you use the web for. That's one of the many
