It's a Mac.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I decided to try a Mac product to figure out why the cult following and Mac dedication. To be honest, I am underwhelmed. It is no faster, no more functional or flashy than windows. Just a slightly different platform at a multiple of the cost of windows. I'm very disappointed at the paucity of dedicated programming for this unit. I'll use the heck out of it but I don't think I'll overspend for Apple in the future. By the way, the case finish is fragile and scratches waaaay too easily.

Great size for traveling and work commute
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Can’t go wrong with current Apple products. Very modern, reliable, and I was able y save so much off retail with Best Buy’s back to school promotion. I got this way cheaper than I would be if it were purchased through Apple directly.

Computer is perfect.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very pleased with the Mac Book Air. Microsofts version of Xcell leaves a lot to be desired if you are used to the Microsoft Platform but... given this is apple..go figure. At least it works and I am familiar enuf to work around it.

Love our MacBook’s
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Switched over to MacBooks in our house about 6 years ago and haven’t looked back! We would go through a laptop about every two years due to software issues or hardware degradation. Since going to Mac’s we haven’t had a single issue!

Apple is the best computer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nothing compares to an Apple computer. They are, by far, the most user friendly computer available. They are constantly improving the apps and services they offer. Anytime there is a threat of a virus, they protect the user.

Apple doesn’t it again.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I decided to upgrade to a MacBook. Overall, I am satisfied but there is definitely a learning curve between this and a Windows computer. I just wish it had a DVD drive. I guess I’ll spring another $75 and get the external DVD drive.

Only had one downfall
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had never owned a Mac before so when I had a scholarship who was willing to help pay for the purchase of one I was definitely excited. I chose this originally because it had all the d=features I was looking for. It had the USB ports built into the computer, a decent sized screen, the raised keyboard buttons and even the little light up apple on the front. It was light and easy to transport from my house to class every day. I had heard people say nota the screen on this model was the worst of them all but I didn't really notice anything in the store. IT wasn't until I got home that I saw what they were talking about. The resolution on the screen was complete garbage. I sometimes have trouble seeing little words so it is common for me to enlarge the screen. When I tried to o that on this computer, the resolution would get ever n worse. I told myself that I could deal with it even though I knew that I would be regularly using the computer to view photos on small tooth surfaces but I wanted to keep it because my only other options within the same price range would have meant getting a laptop with a much smaller screen or paying a little more to get one that has a slower processing system and nowhere to put a flash drive. I ended dup having return it because I just couldn't get over how bad the resolution was

Great Laptop
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Apple Laptops are just the best around. I have owned HP's before and they just don't match up with Apple in most areas. My salesman was very knowledgeable about Apple's products and throughly explained to me the workings of this laptop.

Very Well Made
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It keeps the magnetic power port and has standard USB ports. Does not require an adapter like the Macbook Pro which happens to be a better machine. However with an I5, 8GB Ram and 256 SSD it is perfect for a student.
