Apple MacBook Air 11.6" Laptop - MC505LL/A (October, 2010)

This is my first jump into Mac , & I must say, I am pleasantly impressed!

This is my first jump into Mac. Well, I did use last gen maxed out 13.3 MacBook Air for few days, but I didn't like that it overheated, & for me, it was too big for me as a everyday laptop. It was really easy to use this Mac & I was a lifetime PC user. As I had iPhone, I sold iPad & got this, & I haven't really looked back.

I got the base model. Yet, the SSD makes most programs, from surfing, Word, watching videos, & even PS a pleasure to use ;) This would make a perfect 2nd laptop, as it lacks the raw processing power & HD space to replace it as main CPU. Though I am currently using it as a main CPU ATM, as I am eyeing the Envy 17 3D Refresh w/ coolsense technology & Sandy bridge to come out & replace it as my desktop lappy.

What I liked: Slim, very stylish, bright screen, 16:9, does not overheat, speedy in most cases!
What I didn't: It may sound funny, but it's actually feels a bit heavier than its 2.3lbs weight. It maybe be because I have used tiny lappies in the past, such as Sony Vaio P Lifestyle, UMID, Viliv N5, etc. Also, it could feel heavier thanks to Apple evenly balancing batteries on the bottom of the laptop.

If you even have a inkling of interest in this laptop, I say go for it!

this laptop is absolutely awesome!!! I usually get the biggest screen available, but after I got this I realized it's the perfect size. It is lightweight and has great performance. It's taking a little time to get use to Mac OS since I'm used to windows on PCs, but I have to say I like it a lot better so far. I don't think I'll ever go back. If you are considering getting this laptop then buy immediately, especially if it's at the awesome price I paid for it. This is by far the best purchase I have ever made.

This is my first MAC...been longing to have one due to a lot of recommendations from my friends. This works best for me. It's very light to carry with. The keyboard are super soft. for the past two weeks I never encountered a problem. However, the battery life is not that long, about 3 hours only, but works for me, I don't really stay that long at one time. So just enough for me to take a rest and charge it. Over all, I am 100% satisfied on how it functions. I would definitely recommend this product.

I'm a bit biased because I love Apple's OS and hardware far more than any competitor's but this computer has been an absolute joy. It's not terribly fast and the battery, while very good, isn't something extraordinary, yet I still give it a five out of five. I got it used and works just like a brand new computer. The biggest pro is the size/weight and the form factor. It's a feather and really really nice to look at. Just carrying it around makes me feel confident. Love it.

I loved my MacBook, but it was a bit bulky for my needs. The Mac Air is great, for my needs. I like the portability and the fact that is it so light. Plus, I don't need as much memory or hard drive space after all I mostly use it for creative writing and social networking. I give it a 4 out of 5 because of the fact that it does not have a cd/dvd....for storage, the flash drive is ok. I am still happy, it is a Mac after all. Once you go MAC you never go back!
