'Tis a screwed up world
Similar question to above poster:

(Posted originally in laptop thread, but I realized this may have the experts)
I just want to confirm some advice I gave a friend:

He's an engineering student, and has the choice between a Macbook Pro Retina or a Macbook Air (13").
He says he'll be using it for note taking and writing papers, no crazy gaming.
I asked him if he'll be running some modelling programs, and he said that he might use the lab computers for those...
As to Haswell -- apparently, he's getting it as a gift, so no waiting.

I recommended him an air based on portability, would this be correct?
