It’s lack of storage and ram meant that my workflow was regularly being obstructed. The MacBook Air was never meant to be a main computer - it is a lightweight, thin ultra-portable netbook. At least monthly I would start a day of work and find warning messages that I’m running out of space and need to delete files in order to stay operational. (I should probably remind myself here that I may be getting spoiled: for an extended amount of time I worked on a laptop with 4 gigs - yes 4 gigs! - of storage). Even though I keep all large files - videos and images - on external drives and only use the laptop for its processor, keyboard, and screen, it is still a challenge to keep everything inside of such a small package. I will show photos of my laptop graveyard soon.Īnyway, this morning is when I knew that I couldn’t go on another day with such a slight amount of storage. So I ate it for more than a year and half - the longest run that I’ve had with a laptop since my first dinosaur of a Dell in 2004. I was the idiot who didn’t buy enough power. However, this didn’t damper how much I enjoyed this machine. I took a gamble going cheap and I knew almost right off that I was going to need and upgrade. Well, except for the fact that 128 gigs of internal storage and 8 gigs of ram are hard to work with if you’re driving it hard … and especially if you’re working in video. I grew to love the operating system and just everything about it.

By 2017 equivalent PC laptops cost just about as much as a MacBook, so the choice is a matter of preference … not status.ĭo you know what else? That MacBook Air was the best computer I’ve ever used. I’m not sure if I didn’t know what I was talking about then or if things have changed. Anyway, this morning is when I knew that I couldn’t go on another day with such a slight amount of storage.
