MacBook Air Obtained

146 words.

This may come as a shock, but I ordered a MacBook Air. It was a bit of a shock for me, too. I was finally ready to get a “thin-and-light” laptop for writing and web surfing, and I had always assumed I would get a Windows laptop for that, but when I started really looking for one, I found that there were very few plausible Microsoft options to choose from. There were a handful of Ultrabooks that might have served (the Samsung Series 9 comes to mind), but they were all pricey, and I decided that if I was going to have to spend a chunkload of cash anyway, I couldn’t get much thinner and lighter than a MacBook Air. So I got a 13″ 8GB model with a 128GB SSD. It arrived today and I’m typing this post on it right at this very second!
