    If you want a apple laptop and don't need all the bells and whistles get this. The screen is the worst out of all apples laptops BUT the screen is far from bad.

    It's been a long time since I've used a Mac; however some of the features are similar to my iPad. This made it easy to pick up general usage and work the computer.

    I bought this laptop as a replacement for my old HP. It runs so much faster and there are so many features. I was concerned about the price but it's worth it.

    Couldnt be happier with my new MacBook Air, I was on the fence on the 12" MacBook or 13" Air but decided to go for a little more power since they're both quite thin.

    Solid work laptop

    I've had this laptop for about 3 months now and it's been working well, with no substantial or unexpected problems. I've used it primarily for word processing (albeit substantial word processing - writing and editing a 200 page dissertation), web surfing (and Netflix watching...) and light scripting in Python - it works fine. One thing - I've noticed the screen lags a bit when scrolling through large documents in Word, though I don't know if that's a laptop/memory problem or a Word problem. The laptop itself is light but sturdy feeling - a nice change from my 2010 MacBookPro.

    This older version of the MacBook Air is still a decent performer for many different tasks. If you can find one, it’s likely to be a good value.
