    I bought two of these for my high school age boys. They were very pleased and value MAC as a brand overall. They appreciated the screen size and that they could put them in their backpacks:)

    Light weight and solid. I usually use an iPad for everything but there are just some things that require a full program to do it right. It is quiet and fast. Money well spent.

    The Apple MacBook Air is perhaps the most powerful lightweight laptop ever conceived. Even though this is not the most current model, this product packs a punch and allows users to do all of their daily tasks seamlessly, as well as taking on many more advanced projects. The MacBook Air will last a long time, and is a worthwhile investment.

    The Mac is easy to use. I previously had an MacBook Pro but decided I didn't need the CD drive. I download books and movies so I can see/read on mu laptop or ipad.

    I love this laptop. I went for the 256gb HD with 4 Mb of RAM. Plenty fast for web, email and office apps. The laptop is super thin and light. Perfect.

    I upgraded from a 2008 model MacBook and am so happy that I did! Crystal clear display, lighter weight and super-fast processor. I didn't think it was necessary to get a new laptop, since I just use it at home for personal use, but I am very happy that my husband talked me into it. My old battery wasn't lasting more than 90 minutes, this new one goes for hours and hours.

    This is my second Macbook. I had a Macbook Pro that I sold after buying this Macbook Air. I love it! It's much lighter than my Pro was, and I love that it doesn't have a CD/DVD drive. I'll buy one later when I need one, but now that I stream everything, there is little use for a CD/DVD drive in my computer. It makes a major difference in how light my computer is. I would recommend this to everyone that I know.

    It's a little tricky to get used to when going from a PC to a Mac but now that I've got it down I love it. I received all the help I needed when setting up my device from Apple Care. I use my computer for leisure, school and work purposes and it's great for all 3.
