Ipad or Macbook???

I have my 15" Macbook Pro at home.. its massive, and I do not want to have to drag it with me to class. I start class in the fall, and am debating whether or not I should get an Ipad or another Macbook laptop (Either the 13" or the 13" Air). Most of our books will be EBooks. What would you say to get? I refuse to go to a PC (nothing but issues).. I know good old fashion pen and paper, which I will use, but also would like to have a computer or tablet with me as well, to type my stuff up at school during breaks, etc.

What would you suggest????

Thanks!

If I were in your situation I would get a Ipad. If you already have a functional laptop at home, why get another one? Besides, there are so many apps (and other fun stuff) you can get for the Ipad that would be helpful during nursing school.

I got an iPad for nursing school, start this summer. Thinking one of those little keyboards would be nice though.

Ipad for sure. No need for two laptops.

Definitely go with the iPad. Not to mention the iPad 2 just went down in price. I use mine often to keep myself entertained by either google imaging the stuff we're talking about or Facebook haha... Either way it's better than skipping lecture!
