Macbook Air 128GB enough?

more than enough, you can carry external usb 3.0 (64gb) if you feel it's not enough. at least in the event your ssd decides to fails on you, you don't lose everything. Another way is you could sync your cloud storage (dropbox) in 1 of your thumbdrive.

haha alright. still have SD card slot too.

Economics.
Would the MBA be sufficient? I'm guessing I'll only be dealing heavily with powerpoints and excel sheets.

Another concern I have is that, does MBA heat up very fast doing the above^ processes? I have no exp at all with all effective the cooling system of the macbooks are. :/



lol sure. thanks for the clarification!



On windows, I already gave up gaming. I think I getting old liao games are no longer that attractive to me, and sometimes honestly feels like a waste of my time. I prefer read fiction books. *nerd alert*

agreed
im also old liao
gaming is ok but mot 100% of my life
I touch my mac more than my epic window desktop for gaming only


that why I now willing to spend mre on a laptop upgrade to rmbp to 15" soon waiting for haswell rmbp and hand down my old 13" mbp for my parent

anyway another method to read ntfs is "tuxera ntfs". tediously managed to get my mac to read ntfs

I buy from sch they come with bootcamp win7, and it takes up like 62GB . I intend to take down the licence number and the office suite etc then next time can install again by myself if I want, would that work? lol.

*hi-5* same sia i also dont game on phone. i was tempted to get the rmbp too! but its kinda heavy and main thing is, why should i pay good money for something that will be outdated in a few mths time.

Default win 7 install is 32G. Not sure how big is the office suite. You can always go to uninstall programs and get rid of stuff you don't need.

Also, you can read this link for ways to reduce the size of Win 7.
