I usually only write reviews when a product is either really really
good, or really really bad. The Macbook Air is certainly the former. I
picked this up on Amazon over Black Friday weekend for $849, and I
consider it possibly the best money I've ever spent on a piece of
electronic equipment. I'm not an "Apple" guy, and I don't buy simply for
brand cache. I bought this because I think the iPad is overpriced for
what you get, and was looking for something that was functional and
portable. I was not disappointed. With the lid closed it's virtually the
same footprint as the iPad, and about a pound heavier. I would imagine
it would fit easily in a woman's purse. It is also blazingly fast. By
far and away the fastest computer I have ever used. I was a little
concerned about only having 2GB of RAM, but it seems to have no impact
at all. Startup and shutdown are virtually instantaneous. Apps load
immediately. Completely unlike your typical computing experience.
Outside of the speed and portability, they keyboard, touchpad, and build
quality are spot on. Again, probably the best I've ever used on a
laptop.
There's really not a lot to dislike, but here are the
things I've found. First, there's a shortage of ports. On many of the
competing Ultrabooks that have been recently, you simply get more
options to connect. Secondly, the battery life isn't great. It's OK, and
will get you a few hours of extensive use, but I haven't gotten close
to the 6+ hours Apple quotes. Finally, the memory and storage could be
an issue for some users. I don't run many programs at once, and most of
my documents are stored in a cloud, so these two items aren't a huge
deal for me, but it's something to consider if you are a more intensive
user.
In short, I think I got a steal. A 64GB iPad and keyboard
will run you about $800, and will not give you nearly the capability
that the Air has. The competing Ultrabooks aren't much cheaper, and
won't give you the build quality and friendly ergonomics that the Air
offers. I'm not a fan of all Apple products, but think they hit a home
run here. It's honestly a little astonishing to me that the Air has not
become more popular than it is.
