I just want the Macbook for surfing web, occasional movie streaming + youtube and Skype functionality. * I also use iPhone so it will be easier to sync + function

I like the AIR because, its light , cheaper , but I feel if I don't upgrade the specs a bit I am " missing out " however I don't know if it would show much significant difference.

The PRO was recommended because the associate at Apple Metrotown said if I was to upgrade the Macbook Air, it would be the same cost approx $50 difference, and I would get RETINA DISPLAY + BUILT IN HDMI PORT.

I have made a comparison just for refrence
Please let me know what you guys think in terms of the SPECS , I5 VS I7 , RETINA DISPLAY VS REGULAR .. I did see the difference in the PRO, however I can't justify the $500 difference, I am not on a budget.. I just want the best bang for buck for my personal preference and usage of the laptop.

Thx fellow revsceners!

If you want best bang for buck, then you shouldn't be looking at apple IMO.
