My wife went back to school this year, and she needed a laptop, so I got her one for christmas. I went with the base model 11" air because that's what I would have bought if I was getting it for me.
She hated it. I couldn't believe it. "The screen is too small", "I can't play warcraft 3 on it" (ok legit gripe, war3 doesn't work, and she still plays that game!) "I don't like the way the track pad works"
Admittedly, the track pad default settings leave a little to be desired. I made a few tweaks to her setup, and it worked a lot better.
I asked her the other day how she feels about her laptop now, with 6 months use under her belt. She loves it, as I knew she would.
Next laptop I buy for myself will be a 11" air. I'm no apple fan boy, but it is the highest quality laptop you can get. But if you've found a better one for the same price, please let me know
