Hi Guy,

I am thinking to buy a MBA for travel purpose , it mainly use for personal surfing ,photo , ppt ..etc. as my company laptop only restrict for office use..(blocked all USB/external HD)..

and most of the time i will carry my iphone5 , will it be good pair for MBA and iphone 5 ??

I've found it very easy to tether a iPhone to an Macbook. Other than that I don't think there is any really benefit.

If you're putting out business docs and spreadsheets you better spring for the MacBook. They are designed to work seamlessly with iPhones through iTunes and other OSX software. I'd get an iPad Mini (or perhaps Nexus 7) to complement or substitute for the laptop though. On short leisure trips a 3G/LTE tablet may be all the big screen you need and can also serve as a GPS navigator.
