Best laptop for Mac/Windows and iOS development?
I am a High School student and a hobby programmer. My school has an iPad program, where each student was issued an iPad for school use. Once I got mine, I began to look up information about making apps for the app store, and I discovered that the xCode SDK is only available for OSX. This iPad is the first apple product I have ever owned, and am unfamiliar with the different types of macs. I definitely want a laptop, but am turned away by the MacBook Air's lack of hard drive space, especially since I want to be able to Dual-Boot or BootCamp (I'm familiar with dual booting on an old VAIO) with Windows 7. Is there a need for a CD drive that rules out the MBA? Is there a minimum hard drive space that I should look for?
I want this primarily for developing iOS apps, but also as a good, portable notebook that also can use Windows for gaming.
