iPad 2 VS MacBook Pro

I'm a business school senior about to finish the last half of my last semester. I consider myself to be on-the-go, and I need to have access to my resume, papers, emails, etc. I had an iPad 2 and MacBook Pro. I discussed the iPad 2 and MacBook Pro comparision in terms on functionality, performance and convenience.

iPad 2 VS MacBook Pro - MacBook Pro

MacBook Pro in the aluminum design! Today, they are all Pros and the regular MacBook has been resigned to the old plastic design. The MacBook Pros today have a fairly different set of features than before, so I'm thinking of trading up. Here are some of the specs:

LED backlit screens with option antiglare widescreen technology;
Thunderbolt port – up to 10Gbps for digital video output;
Up to 750Gb hard drive (SATA) or up to 512Gb (SSD);
Up to 8Gb DDR3 memory;
Faster dual-core processors (2.7GHz max);
New Quad-core (on 15-inch and up – 2.2 GHz max).

These are iPad 2 VS MacBook Pro, in some ways comparable and not in others, but that's what makes them such a great team! They tend to complement each other with varying results and when you mix them with any smartphone (or iPhone especially), you'll achieve the most well-rounded tech setup you can get.
