Educational discount, approx. USD 1070, for the following spec. of Thinkpad Carbon X1 i5- is it a good deal? Or looking for a Macbook Air 13" / 1.6GHz with either SSD 256 ( approx. USD 1050) or SSD 128 ( approx. USD 850 )

Last a few hours left before the educational offer expires, I cannot decide yet.
