I have a few year old Dell Inspiron, but only God knows the horrors that its been through. I'm thinking about buying a Macbook Air or Pro because people I know have said that they're good for taking notes. I'm not really looking to be able to game, I want something that's good for multiple tabs for research, notetaking, etc. 

Any suggestions would be nice. I don't really have a budget, but nothing too too crazy of course.
