    While many laptops exceed the specifications of the Macbok Air, very few if any perform at this level. This is the perfect laptop for someone who travels or someone who just needs a laptop that performs : )

    The laptop arrived on time in perfect condition. Extremely easy to set it up - actually almost no set up required. I was able to use it directly. Laptop is very fast and responsive. Definitely a great buy.

    I'm a first-time Mac user, and I'm a total convert! Won't be using a PC again. Very user friendly and fast processor. Love it. Was just a bit more expensive than a comparable PC, but offers so much more.

    It has every feature the average person would need and it's easily compatible with my iPhone. However, applications such as pages take awhile to figure out.

    My old Macbook was so heavy that it became a desktop. I like ike the Macbook Air, except for the inconvenience of needing an external drive for CD's, etc.

    I love this computer so far. I already have used the MacBook Pro, which I love, but this is so much lighter, easier to just grab and go! Would enjoy a ten key along with , but not really necessary.

    The Air was exactly what we were looking for and needed. We debated between the MacBook Pro and Air for a while but because we are just using this as our basic home lap top the air was perfect.

    I chose the AIR because the Pro was heavy. With my travel schedule it is nice to have something so light and easy to move around, especially through security. It is light and easy on the lap.

    Bought this for my wife while I am overseas. We use this primarily to Skype with each other. The screen is a good size, and very clear. Just wish the hard drives were a little larger.

    I would prefer the laptop have a cd drive rather than having something else to carry. Overall, great as usual from Apple. Maybe the next edition will come with touch screen.
