Pros Portability, unbeatable design, above-average battery life, simple yet intuitive OS, quality materials made from, wireless capability is unmatched, ... As of this date April 2012, you just can't get a better 11-inch laptop to suit most daily tasks for ave

Cons I've had this laptop for 5 months now and I've experienced very little to complain for. There have been times when errors in Mac OSX Lion but none to diminish the user experience. One drawback is the HDD space because I got the 64 SSD only so I have to cl

Summary We got my 11 inch MBA for roughly $1200 and I can honestly say it is worth every penny. I think the only reason some people will not get this computer is because they are Mac-haters.

Though I think the 2-year extended warranty from Apple care for around $200 is also worth buying... just because the heat under it scares me sometimes... haha

Summary I use my laptop for business (spreadsheets, word processing, and presentation) and personal computing (surfing, light gaming, netflix). I do not edit video, playing heavy graphics games or attempt to find dark matter.

This is an amazing machine for people who travel or just don't want to lug around a big laptop. I have not attempted a task that the processor was not capable of performing quickly and Cloud storage makes the 'limited' hard drive space a minor consideration.

The aluminum case, keyboard and screen are all of better quality than the Thinkpads and Dells that I have used for the last several years. The design and construction are really a step above.

If you do not need lots of on machine storage or heavy processing power this could be the one.
