Both are $50 less than I can find even though Apple's education site. I would end up ordering it Thursday and having it shipped home. I have no intentions of going near any store on Friday (or flying back with two laptops.)
Do you have any links to those specific models on BB? I didn't see those exact ones there. Let's take a look at the specs.
The ram is soldered to the MB on both the MBA and the MBP. That's correct, and one reason I wouldn't get the MBA without the memory upgrade to 8GB.
