[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1367464, member: 56379"] This totally depends on your needs. A new computer purchased today could still be useful 10 years from now if all someones needs are internet & e-mail (assuming the computer is not abused physically). In my personal opinion...the MacBook Airs are the worst Macintosh computer someone can buy...if computer longevity is a concern. Why?...a max. of 4 gig of ram is pretty limiting. Compare this to all other currently selling Apple notebooks (MacBook Pro's)...all of them can be upgraded to 16 gig of ram...giving them a "fighting chance" of being more useful in the long-term. This is the price you pay for being hip, trendy, and stylish!;) - Nick [/QUOTE]
