How do I go about transferring data from my Vaio to my MacBook Air using a Seagate Backup Plus hard drive?

As in putting the data on the hard drive and than accessing it on my MBA. What wires would I need?

Answer
Very easy. Connect the drive to a usb port on your computer and copy paste all your important files from your computer to the external hard drive. If I go in more detail then you will have to open or explore your external hard drive and once the target window is open, go to your files or folder on the source drive and copy all your content by selecting it. Then go to your target drive and paste it. These are really basic instructions. You can google step by step instructions for more help.
Thanks.

Is it true I can get what a Macbook does for much less with a PC instead?

I want something sleek and portable just like the Macbook Air for school. People say that there are better alternatives. Can you give me some suggestions?


Answer
Macbooks are double the price for an equal set of specs in a smaller size.
I just answered a MacBookPro 13" ($1100) very similar to 14" Samsung NP300E4C-A03US at $500 at Tigerdirect.

The Samsung is thicker, agreed.
The MacAir is basically a ultrabook. Has no optical drive. If you want to spend that kind of money, the Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon is a very fancy business level system built a heck of a lot better at about the same price.
The rule is smaller and thinner gets either much more expensive or gets dismally poor performance or some kind of balance between them. There are direct competitors to the Macair now like the Lenovo U410.
Apple leaves out a lot of information about their products and hides specs wherever possible.
Here is detail:

Here is about CPU and graphics power:

You still need a good carrying case, because drop a MacBook on the floor and get hit with a massive repair bill. A MacBook Air does the same things as a $300 netbook.

You have to decide which MacAir to do a comparison.
Lets say base model 13"
HD 4000 graphics
i5-3427U CPU passmark 3725
4GB RAM soldered
128GB SSD
Bluetooth and Wifi (no ethernet hardwire without a dongle)
50 watt hour decent battery (not serviceable)
3 pounds
about 13"x9"x0.68"
2 USB 3.0
Thunderbolt (mostly for dongles)
SD card slot
$1200
Every company has Ultrabooks now, all of them less than MacAir in price with equal or better features. Since $1200 doesn't scare you, to get something really cool is either the Lenovo Thinkpad X1 carbon or Lenovo Thinkpad X230 convertible tablet.
X230 - The screen flips around to be both a laptop and a tablet:

Base model with core i5 is $1100
i5-3320M passmark 3874 faster than MacAir by a little

The X1 Carbon is the best ultrabook available, and shows starting at $1250

Similar in many ways to a MacAir, but a premium carbon fiber construction drop-tested and can open a full 180 degrees.
45Wh, Integrated, RapidCharge up to 80% battery life in 35 minutes

Weight is 3 pounds, and dimensions 13.03" x 8.9" x 0.74" with the 14" screen

If you just want "like a MacAir only cheaper, Lenovo has Ideapad U300 and U400 of the same design as MacAir.
