Which iPad would be suitable for me?

NEED HELP CHOOSING!
Hi, I am currently a student in school and I plan to get the iPad to use it as a file holder and an enterntainment device.
I have a laptop and I was planning on using it as a desktop, while using the iPad to hold word files and different school necessities.
I am stuck between the iPad Mini and the iPad 4. I realize the iPad 4 does exceed the iPad Mini in a few ways; however, the iPad Mini does come in a more portable size. The iPad 4, on the other hand, has a faster processor. I don't really care much about the retina because I really won't be doing anything that requires that level of high graphics.
Keep in mind that I will be using the iPad occassionally to edit word files and start powerpoints or read textbooks.
And should i get the 32 or 64 gb?
Thank you

  • Which iPad would you recommend for a college student, an iPad mini or full size iPad?

    I already have the top of the line Macbook Pro 15 in ret display for school, but I'm also interested in using an iPad for school as well. Would the iPad mini be more convenient because of the small size or more of a problem? And would getting an iPad for school be really worth it? What could I do on there that I couldn't do on my Mac? If I were to get an iPad I would be looking into a 32GB, is that too big or too small? Thanks for the help ahead of time!

    OK... here's the latest on my lab environment/server set up. We have a 17" iMac G5. It is connected to a 24 port 10/100 switch with two gigabit ports. The iMac gets a gigabit port; the eleven eMacs get 10/100 ports. There is an internal 160 GB SATA hard drive installed in the iMac, and a 160 GB external firewire drive connected to the iMac for back-up purposes. I haven't got the back-up software running yet, but plans are to back up user information on the external hard drive and create an archive of server OS set up and software on DVD in case of catastrophic failure.
    Since our 30+ Windows boxes are served with your basic Dell Optiplex running Windows Server 2003 and an old, cranky Gateway running Linux, I didn't think our little Mac lab would suffer that much under an iMac server. So far it's been smooth sailing, and the whole set-up, iMac, server software, and external hard drive, were under $2000.

  • What is the cost of replacing a battery for an Ipad 2 in India? On asking the service centre, I was informed the entire Ipad would be replaced for 20K which is exorbitant. Is it advisable to buy the Apple protection program in this case?

The same is done in US for a paltry (comparably) 100 dollars. Is it advisable to buy the Apple protection program in this case?

    Adobe Illustrator.  Your company logo should be a vector file.  Image files can be "Placed" in Illustrator.  Artwork created for printing can be drawn in Illustrator and saved as .ai, .eps, and .pdf files which can be imported into your printer's RIP.  But, check with your print vendors and see what they require.  This does not rule-out Photoshop, however Photoshop can be limited.  So, it would be a good idea to have Photoshop and Illustrator loaded in your workstation with Illustrator being the go-to application.

  • Which laptop is best suitable for me? Macbook Air 11 inch, Macbook Air 13 inch, or Macbook Pro 13 inch?

    I'm an 8th grader who does powerpoints, word documents, web browsing and light gaming, light movie editing on imovie, some ichat and some apps. Should I get a macbook air 11 inch 256gb and 8gb of ram, macbook air 13 inch 128gb and 8gb of ram or macbook pro 13 inch 8gb of ram 500gb hard drive?. Which one is most suitable for me? I need it to last 4-5 years.

    Strictly speaking, the size of the screen has nothing to do with a decision to install Windows on any Mac. It should work with the base 13" MBP, even with just 4GB ram.
    But it is more complex than to just "install windows"; first, you have to buy a copy of Windows. Any copies you have, even if on DVD, will not work (because the OS contains proprietary code based on the model and manufacturer of your Windows laptop.) Then you have to decide if you want a dual boot (meaning setting up another partition on the HD that holds only the Windows OS and files), or purchase Parallels, which you install as Apple software, then install windows "into" Parallels. If you use dual boot, you can only switch from one OS to the other by way of shutting down and re-booting. If you use Parallels, you can jump from one OS to the other just like switching to different programs in the Mac OS. Parallels runs under $40 these days, and MS Windows 7 Home Premium is ~$165 (both on Amazon).
    There are often business or academic reasons to have Win7 on a Mac, but each person should seriously consider whether buying a Mac so that you can install Windows is a sound decision. I mean, why bother with the Mac?  I first thought I would have to install Windows on my Mac, but found Mac versions of my critical programs, and learned how to use the many programs the Mac OS already provides to get the same, and often improved functionality over what I had with Windows.
    I know you will have a tough decision to make about this. And you are spending a great deal of money for an 8th grader (and for a lot of other people too). It's important to weigh all the factors, decide on your choice, and then make the purchase without having any doubts about your decision. Have confidence in your purchase, and move forward from there.
    One final note; I bought my first Mac machine only about 9 months ago. I've bought two more since then. And for each one, I bought the AppleCare warranty and have never regretted it. I won't know if I need it for repairs in a year or two, but just having an ability to call Apple at nearly any time, and have programs, functionality and OS behavior explained to me gives me real peace of mind. I may have to call AppleCare more than once to get a good answer, but in the end, the service has always come through for me. I suggest you consider this strongly.
    I hope my lengthy replies have been helpful; you've got a great treat ahead of you once you make the purchase!

  • Which Imac would be better for gaming?

    So i've got a choice between these two models -
    £1329.60
    3.1GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.9GHz
    TB Serial ATA Drive @ 5400 rpm
    8gb Ram
    NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 1GB GDDR5
    Apple care
    27 inch model
    3.2GHz quad-core Intel Core i5
    Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz
    8GB (two 4GB) memory
    1TB hard drive1
    NVIDIA GeForce GT 755M with 1GB video memory
    Apple care
    £1407.60
    Basically, the decision is down to, do I want a slightly better graphics card and bigger screen, or a smaller screen and better processer?
    I just want to gauge opinions, i'll be using it as my day to day computer as well, some video editing, but nothing too strenuous. How big is the difference in graphic and processing powers.
    Thanks for your help

    With all due respect the question was "which iMac would be better for gaming?".  Key word here is 'better', not 'perfect', not 'ideal'; just 'better'. Unqualified answers and/or sweeping statements do very little to contribute to a discussion, let alone answer the question under consideration.

  • Which imac would work best for Graphic Design?

    I am a Graphic Designer, currently using Creative Suite 2 (soon to be upgraded to CS3) and I need a new Mac for home. A Powermac takes up too much space, so I'm thinking about an imac with a 24" monitor and I have a few questions for the experts:)
    Which imac would work best for graphics?
    Is the monitor acurate for Pantone color matching?
    Is the 24"monitor on the imac clear and bright?
    Is Leopard a stable OS?
    I also need an (inexpensive) color laser printer. Any suggestions?
    Thanks a bunch!

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    The 24" iMac uses a superior LCD panel to the 20" model and so is certainly better suited to your purposes. I don't know how badly having a piece of glass in front of the display would affect you as a designer though.
    The display certainly is clear and bright. I use it on it's lowest brightness setting.
    Leopard is stable but it's worth checking that drivers for any devices that you currently rely on are available. For example I have to go back to my 10.4.11 iMac G4 to use my scanner. Personally I can't get iCal to alarm in Leopard but that's a fairly minor gripe.
    As this is the forum for much older iMacs I'd suggest re-posting in the Intel iMac forum and even Mac OS 10.5 Printing forums for better informed opinion:

    And by the way, where can I get a 4+ meter microphone boom for a budget?

    The more expensive one with rails. (the French ebay one) Your using it to make your camera look better for clients, right? Metal and rails look better than the cloth one.
    I bet, though, if you want one for functionality (to hold square filters) the cloth one is better made from what it looks likes.

    I'm going to be a senior this year and my school is switching over to the iPad for classroom activities. Which iPad is the best for taking notes, researching, studying, reading, etc?

    I Recommend the iPad Mini Retina, it's not to big, and not to small. It has the speed of the iPad Air due to it having the same 64 Bit chips. ( And it's a lot cheaper!!) I have one myself and it's perfect for my school work!

    I don't see any DDR3L on the page for the RAM that would fit your model -> http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_133 3MHz_SDRAM.
    But the answer is that it doesn't really matter - just make certain to get 1333MHz.
