    the question is if an air will run apps fine. answer = yes (for almost all you might use)
    we have only airs after years of 15" pros etc, and the airs run shit fine. these machines chug now -- its not like 10 years ago. you lose some stuff with an air (extra ports, HD size etc) -- those are the things to look at. those will be the things you'll miss (one of mine was "fuck, someone sent me a DVD. what they hell do i do?). not the extra 10,15,20% processing power IMHO. entry level models are fine these days, the others are just "better".

    btw, im running a 2012 air with an upgraded HD and maxed out ram. i used to buy new machines every year, but its just not worth the $$ or the effort these days. just my 2 cents
