    First MacBook

    We were in the market for a laptop as our previous one was outdated and not great to begin with. We have always heard great things about MacBooks even though we've only ever been PC users. Since we've had many iPhones and iPads over the years we already were Apple fans. Once this item went on sale we made the purchase and so far could not be happier with it. We still have plenty to learn about it but it's lightning fast and user friendly which suits our needs perfectly.

    I love my Macbook Air. It takes some getting use to naturally if you are used to Windows. The resolution is great. It is light and easy to carry in a slim shoulder bag. I love it so, I convince my co-worker to by one and I went back and purchased 3 more. One for my husband, my daughter and my son! Hey I am responsible for the purchase of 5 Macbook Airs in less than a month need I say more!

    If you are tired of dealing this the nasty mess called Windows, or Google's lackluster Chromebooks, this is the best introductory laptop Apple offers. Perfect for standard use such as web browsing, email, word processing, spreadsheets and other casual uses (photos, music, etc.) The portability and battery life are AMAZING. Seriously. It's quite, dependable, and a great price.

    Bought this for my daughter who is headed off to college in a couple of months because we've had SO many problems with laptops running Windows on them. There's a little learning curve, but she already uses an iPhone like a pro, so she's used to the Apple system. Runs smoother and faster than any laptops we've ever owned. Light weight and you can get a variety of after-market covers for it.

    All my life I've been using PC...no more! After 3 failed Windows laptops, I finally decided to switch to Apple. I love Mac! It's incredibly lightweight and fast! I got a fabulous deal, too. It was $750 before tax. can't beat that price. If you're thinking of making the switch, like Nike says, just do it! I love it so much! (plus, being able to text from my laptop is amazing)

    Apple always makes the best computers! I love this one. It is compact and easy to carry around but the best part is it is easy to use. Very user friendly and Apple is always willing to help with any questions you may have. They are easy to reach on their 800# AND easy to understand. They also have a simple help button on the screen. If you are looking for an answer, they have it. I needed something smaller than my 15" MacBook pro and this is the perfect replacement!

    Okay, so I'm a lifelong Windows user and so is my wife. That being said, I bought the Air for her because, according to her, "all the cool kids in my hippy school have one!" She LOVES this thing! She got a little frustrated with the operating system but that's totally to be expected with a new OS. She's had it for over a month and really enjoys how thin, light and sturdy her Air is. It's super fast, boots up from sleep INSTANTLY and just runs without a dam hitch.

    Great computer for a first time Mac user

    This is my 1st Mac. I've had 4 PCs and no matter how new they are, they seem to crash. My Mac hasn't crashed 1 time when I'm on the internet. It is very slim and light weight. I also like that it comes with programs that are similar to Word and Excel. Because I have an iPhone, it was simple for me to set up my Mac. It allowed me to put in my Apple user information. The battery lasts for several days before needing to be charged. I can't see me buying another PC ever again!

    I bought this for my gf to upgrade from a very old HP laptop that was on its last leg. It was a 1000% improvement. She loves the weight and the ease of use of the Macbook Air. Plenty of good video reviews of this macbook online. You get what you pay for, and you cant go wrong with this laptop. Now, my gf doesn't mind doing her homework/papers because she loves using her new Macbook.
