I finish my MBA this summer (I waited until after leaving the military to start mine, and of course in my infinite wisdom started before getting hired at the airlines and doing it while going through probation, fun fun!). I have no need after that for a "destkop replacement" laptop. So I have been leaning towards the macbooks. I just haven't really decided if I even need that. I plan on looking at the newer ipad pro and keyboard combo, think that and my kindle will cover all the bases and my travel needs.threadjack - if you don't need windows, the 12" macbooks are perfectly sized.
