Completely Amazing! [Posted on 2008-06-19]
I cannot begin to describe how much I love this laptop! I won't provide a technical review as I am sure other reviewers are much more competent to do so. I purchased this laptop for work and graduate school as soon as they came out. I first switched to Apple about 3 years ago, and since that time I have owned a PowerBook G4 12" which I traded up for the MacBook Pro 15" and decided it was too big (can you tell I want something small?). So, when the MacBook Air came out, I gave my husband my Pro and purchased this. I couldn't be more satisfied with it. It is fast, well-constructed and lightweight with a beautiful, clear screen, all of which are essentials for my computer happiness! The touchpad is awesome...I find myself wishing that my iMac mouse had a similar feature. I do not find the lack of an optical drive problematic; I purchased the $99 external drive and, as I said, also have an iMac, so program installation, CD uploading, etc., is not a problem for me. The external drive is also small enough that you can pack it up in your case and bring it with you if need be. The battery life is fantastic: I can take class notes for 3 hours straight and still have plenty of juice for another hour or two of use...if I had to estimate battery time, I'd say it consistently gives me 4 1/2 to 5 hours of use. I do not do a lot of video editing or gaming, etc., but I do use this for way more than email, including tons of writing, business uses, and web design. It isn't the task master that the Pro's are, but it's convenience makes up for any shortcomings. So, it basically comes down to what works for you, and because my primary computer is an iMac, the portability, speed, and ease of use of the MacBook Air is a great choice.
Best laptop ever [Posted on 2008-06-20]
Its actually better than the best laptop ever. This is one of the greatest pieces of electronics ever created.
Wish there was more hard drive memory, but if you store files online you dont really need all that much hard drive space.
I also wish the battery life was better.
But other than those two things its a must have.

Do not waste your time and money [Posted on 2008-07-12]
Good for checking emails, and very light word/excel processing work. Otherwise it is really more a gadget than a real computer. Hard drive is too small for using it as a standard computer as you cannot store much info/data. Processing power too slow and even airport does not pick up all signals. Nice gadget...that's all it is. I do not recommend it.
Awesome Macbook Air [Posted on 2008-07-14]
It was a gift to me so I can finish writing a book. It's so lightweight that I carry it around with ease. I am able to write in bed, too. It's really a blessing since I'm on the go so much. This laptop also performs wonderfully. I love it. I highly recommend it.
Great Laptop [Posted on 2008-07-17]
I have been very pleased with my Mac book Air. It has worked perfect since I first turned it on. Migrated from my old Mac Book without a hitch. Booted the Mac Book Air and everything was there even parallels and windows with all my windows programs intact. I love it.
