What notebook models would you recommend for office use?

Hi, I'm looking for notebook recommendations. We are setting up a small office for our business and want to provide everyone with a laptop. Which model would you suggest and why? The business is in the marketing industry so no crazy features are necessary

"Marketing industry" could mean anything. You need to explain the normal workflow/applications that are intended to being used which will help in deciding which Mac fits the bill.

Using google analytics, Adwords, creating documents (mostly excel), using social media handles.

Thank you for the use cases. The next important question is what is your budget for each machine? If around $1000 or so, then you are looking at the Macbook Air/Macbook or maybe the base 13" Macbook Pro. But the Macbook should do everything you need.

As Raz noted, from a processor & capability point of view, for your needs, any Mac will be fine.
I think you now need to look at some other aspects - like size of screen and connectivity.

I would find a MacBook with a 12-inch screen and a single port unsatisfactory - even for private use.
So I would go for a 13-inch screen and at least two ports
