    After years of dealing with PCs, their short life spans and virus issues, I’m now a Mac user. Although a little more expensive, it’s worth it! Love it this laptop. Wouldn’t change a thing.

    I used to have a Sony Vaio, and this new laptop is by far greater. If you're looking for a laptop that lasts a long time and is great for many tasks, I recommend you getting this laptop. Only thing is there is no CD/DVD port, which is not really used anymore.

    As someone who buys several computers and devices a year, I would only buy a Mac. I know that it will without complicated setups. And will keep working without crashing. It also takes very little support so no need for the extra IT expenses to maintain it.

    The computer was easy to figure out because we use apple devices now. The computer was easy to set up. I like the light up key board.

    I have been a lifelong PC user and made the switch to this Mac. The switch was easier than I thought and all of the issues I had with my PC don't occur on these (Overall sluggishness, viruses, strange errors). The only mistake I made was not switching sooner.

    Do I really have to remind anyone. I would never consider anything other than Apple Mac. Bought my first, if you can believe, back in 1988... a Mac II cx. If you can remember that then you're as old or experienced as I am on Macs. Use the best, go Mac!

    Pros when compared to the newer MacBook is this one has many ports and a keyboard with good travel. Cons when compared to the newer MacBook is this laptop does not have a Retina display. You won't notice it until you actually use a retina MacBook.

    Apple continues to elevate the MacBook Air each year and this one is no different. This fully supports the newest version of OS X along with all updated as they come along. If you need or desire a touchscreen then this laptop isn't for you.

    Purchased this for my son who is off to college. The only drawback was the exclusion of a physical slot to attach a laptop lock. Had to purchase a MacLock online but other than that it was an excellent purchase... especially with the student discount & sale.

    The computer was for a teenager. She is so excited and happy with it. I got the apple computer because her last laptop crapped out after a shirt time. Will this be better? Really only time can tell b Ut I have several friends with apple and they are happy.

    Very glad I made the decision to make the switch. It was hard at first to learn how the operating system worked on the Mac but it was fairly easy after a couple of days. I do not see my self doing back to a Windows laptop, unless something drastic changes.

    In my personal opinion, I have loved Apple since 2007-ish. I have had multiple iPods, then started with the iPhone 4,5 and now 6s. I also have always wanted a MacBook but was never able to afford it. Thanks to Best Buy, I was able to afford 2. I'm in love.
