    Wait for 8 then. You'll be able to get it onto your air very cheaply. Because it sucks. =)

    No, you can't bootcamp from an external, as noted above.

    I remain unimpressed with these services and am sitting them out. All your eggs in one basket etc.

    I use Carbon Copy Cloner. I'm sure SD is great but I've used CC for years and twice now when I have had very specific issues the developer himself has worked with me, for a considerable amount of his unpaid time, to resolve them. The first such time actually led to a pretty major new feature...

    Cool to hear you have settled on a plan. One thing to add that it looks like you didn't catch: the optical drive in the MBP is DVD only. It's literally 12 year old technology. If you wanted BluRay capability on that device you have to go external or a very expensive 3rd party shipment...

    Why does she need a disk drive? For what? I've owned an air for 2 years now and never missed it. At home on a desktop sure an optical drive can come in handy but on a portable it is useless weight 99.999% of the time. Does she REALLY need it while on the move? If not grab a cheap USB BluRay...

    The 13" non air is the worst choice you can make today... Just my opinion but there it is.
