[Jsimon9633]

I'm now gonna sell the damn thing, (RevA week1) it's just too handy.... I'm becoming addicted to it....in bed...breakfast table..all day....sofa...bed again...affecting my life!!!!

Trading up for a 17"MBP as need the firewire/screen for HD video editing.

Hopefully my web surfing/messing will reduce a bit!!

This is always a good thread to bring back to life ... the little MBA ... not the greatest spec's on the market, short on ports and maybe even battery life ...

Regardless, most of us who own one and use it often know there's just something about the Air that makes it a real pleasure to use and work on, don't know what it is .... it just works and from a day to day user experience there's something great about it that you or at least I don't get from any other ultra portable or netbook ... I'll often find myself reaching for my Air instead of my MacBook Pro's or my Mac Pro ... it's just fun to grab sit back in the chair and surf / work away

This is a good thread to bump ...

Now we have the MBA's we wished for not so long ago ... more power, ports and a redesign too!

I like mine but I still look from time to time at the 13" MBP

I had a 2009 13" Macbook Pro, first generation iPad, 11" Macbook Air and the 2010 13" Macbook Air. I ended up selling all of them except the new 13" Macbook Air which has become my primary and only machine. I ended up using extra the money made from selling the machines on a number of strippers and whores.

I don't miss the other machines one bit, nor do I miss the backlit keyboard, but I may upgrade whenever a new MBA comes out with one just for the style factor. I also love the trackpad on my 13" MBA as I find it's way better than the ones on my MBP or 11" MBA, as the clicking noise is as minimal as possible.

I'd rather have fun with a number of strippers and whores, than having a bunch of machines and devices that sit around unused, as one person can only use one machine at a time. Unless you are a major geek who doesn't like a variety of woman because there are more things to do in life than using a computer after all.

I'm surprised you don't do documents on it. I do everything on mine, from spreadsheets, to wordprocessing (both in iWorks) and am writing my next novel on it using Scrivener. It has enough screen space for me to set up my outlines and corkboards with room for a writing column.

Well, as a "major geek" if your primary machine is a Macbook Air, you're probably posting to forums and updating your BookFace status and not much else. And if that's true, you only really need an iPad.

Personally I often have three machines (or more) going at the same time. I couldn't possibly do my work with only one machine because I'd be sitting idle waiting for things to finish (such as long compiles or file copy operations).

And I do have an air -- for checking email and light surfing.

One has to ask themselves are you also addicted to the screen resolution solution and lack of colour depth.

If so to both, why?
