Alot of Mac for little $$$
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a must for anyone that needs the usability of a Mac but that is portable. I have a more powerful desktop Mac for video and multi-media apps, but lacked the ability to do more simple tasks on the go (without using my work MacBook). This was the perfect (and affordable) solution. The solid state drive gives it the same speed of my MacBookPro for most applications. I have been impressed on how it still runs my Adobe Creative Suite and FCP.

New Mac User
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm not completely new to Macs, but this is the first time I've fully changed over from windows to Mac. So far I'm beyond impressed. The process to transfer files has been so incredibly easy. I've wirelessly transferred everything I need. Set up for all my other applications couldn't have been smoother. The machine itself is lightweight responsive, and extremely fast. I'm very impressed with my new addition here.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The absolute best laptop I ever used or owned it’s very fast, lightweight , super smooth key board my only complaint is how long it took me to go buy one.

It’s an Apple
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.256 is safer than 128 since some memory is used for set up. Kind of upset that $100 dollars off happened a couple weeks later. Also Apple was selling it for $100 cheaper than what we bought it for plus wireless beats give away. The computer is amazing.

Q: QuestionLooking at this to replace our PC that we pay our bills with. Do the Mac’s get buggy and slow like almost every other PC i’ve owned? Even after they’ve got some age on them?
Asked by Bigman.
- A:Answer No! Have had our iMac for 3 years and it still works like new and I use programs that work hard like Abobe Illustrator. Always had PCs. I don’t deal with viruses anymore. No lagging anymore. It’s amazing. Do it. Just do it.

Q: QuestionWhat's the difference from https://www.bestbuy.com/site/apple-macbook-air-13-3-display-intel-core-i5-8gb-memory-256gb-flash-storage-silver/6444006.p?skuId=6444006 , which is $899.99 on bestbuy.
Asked by isaac.
- A:Answer Issac, You have to check in Specifications, the latest model is 2017. The 899.99 priced MacBook Air are 2016, and the core I5 processer is not as fast. You can get an Apple Beats with the Apple purchase on the newest 2017 model and get a student discount which will bring it closer to 2016 system.

Q: QuestionIs this a 2017 model?
Asked by Yuting.
- A:Answer You are talking to a dummie when it comes to computers. However, mine was billed as a 2017 model and I’m not sure if 2018 are even out. I have found throughout the years that the models don’t change that much other then upgrades to the OS. By the way this is my first Mac. So far real happy. Hope this helps.
