From what I've read, MBA is in the middle of its cycle and recommendation is to buy.

Yes, I just got my MacBook Air at the apple store, in July of this year. Brand new

I'll second this. Just chatted with someone from the apple.com, and they said a 17" MacBook Pro would arrive within a couple weeks of ordering.

I bought my 15" MacBook Pro with Retina Display at the beginning of September and it fits perfectly. When I bought the computer I asked the Apple store if there would be any physical differences between the current model and the one coming out in October and was told no...so it should fit.

Hi Samuel. Thank you for your interest in the Macbook. The Macbook that you are inquiring about is a hi res version from early 2011. It comes with the charger and good battery. If you make the purchase and payment by 3pm EDT it will ship out the same day. Thank you for contacting Capital Remarketing Service. CRS Support

It's a good laptop for college, just know that it is older unless the seller has updated it so if they have not then you will be limited as far as downloads go. I actually have a new Macbook Air and with Macs they are already limited and then you add the age would make it very limited with basic downloads like Adobe, etc. Try looking around locally on Craigslist and you may find one that are updated with the newest OS. Hope this was helpful.

you can buy it before one year warranty will be gone within anytime. I also prefer to buy macbook from apple online not because applecare but cutomizing what I want to add like hard drive, RAM, extra accessaries. I was hesitating between amazon and apple. but I did go with apple. of course, you can upgrade it after by yourself. but it's different story.

They are older than the current generation of mac books. Some are older than others, look for one that is as new as possible if you can. You can Google the model numbers to find out when they were sold as the newest generation.

Your MBA is the same as mine and this AppleCare worked fine for me. The 'old version' refers to the AppleCare package itself, I believe. Anyway, they email you a scan of the box and a legitimate receipt, both of which are necessary to validate your AppleCare with Apple and prove that you bought it from a legit dealer, if you need to use it. The email confirmation of the order indicates that it was 'shipped' and I mistakenly thought something was going to be mailed. The email scan and receipt is all you will receive and actually need. I consider my transaction to have been a good deal.

Ivy Bridge processors are coming out in a few days. They will hit Macs in June/July.I was considering an all-in-one but I'll wait for the refresh. Who knows, I might go for a Macbook Pro instead.

it is amazing laptop, however i would wait until the new version hits the market (has a much more powerful gpu and almost retina display similar to apple products), should be pretty soon!

If you will be on the go often, you should get the MacBook Air due to its great battery life of 12 hours! If you want something that's durable and doesn't have a horrible screen, get the MacBook Pro from last year.

Since they have i3, i5, and i7 in their new MacBook Pros, they will more than likely have the i3 or i5 in the Mini. I don't see the price dropping on this model since the prices for their other products have remained the same.I haven't seen the sales numbers on the Mini or Air...I just can't see many of them being sold since the computer market is being changed with the tablet style machines.

No, I may be wrong. But this is smaller and lighter than a 11inch MacBook air. MBA doesn't allow aftermarket modification ,so, ~ . well still a layman's opinion, but this is a really small laptop, everything in it is unchangeable I guess

The next generation of mac minis (which should be here in maybe 6 months, no less than 4, if apple sticks to its rough routine of updates) will definitely not have an I5. Not even the 2 lower end iMacs have i5's.My guess is that when the iMacs get a processor upgrade, we'll see the mac minis get the next generation processors. Of course now with the new sandybridge chipset coming out, it'll essentially be an update to keep only 1 step behind the curve rather than 2...Still, for the majority of users, the core 2 duo's in the mac mini are decent enough. While the price-point and usage is insulting to customers, in reality most people overestimate how powerful of a processor they need.
