I don't store data on my lap top at this point. It's mostly used as a convenience when I don't wanna sit at a desk. I'll look at a MacBook and see what it's got goin'. Honestly, I've never tested/used Apple's products.
They are expensive. I think they have some "liter" versions. It's nice for me as I have an iPhone and also now an Apple TV. So I can "push" anything on my Lap top or phone to the tv and access my music. Of course now they have all these smart TVs so I am behind the tech curve as usual.
