r00t_b33r wrote I'd like the haters to tell me exactly how they can fault this purchase. The 13" Air is one of the only Apple products that are competitive in their markets. If you objectively take a look at the ultra(buzzword)book market right now, you'd see how great the Air really is. Personally I can't justify any ultrabook yet and they don't fit my needs or budget, but that is beside the point. OSX is, in my eyes and from my experience, the best OS for ultraportable laptops. Oh yeah, and it's real Unix.

Expect a lot of jealousy and denial, OP. It's fantastic.

Well For starters he spent at least, 1000 GBP, you could get a Laptop, just as good if not better for 750 or lower, Over-spent simple as..

he paid 1000 pounds for a Apple Logo.

No he didn't. Wipe the Apple logo off and preconceptions out of your head, then put it side-by side with the Asus UX31A and Samsung Series 9 Ultrabook. Tell me what you see.

One of the highest class ultrabooks with an i5, 4GB RAM, and Intel 4000 HD Graphics is $850 USD, cheaper than a mac.

It seems he did not reply, please reply, I would love to know a good ultrabook for $850, pretty sure it don't have an SSD.

Very nice purchase! The Retina Macbook Pro is looking very tempting to me...for a while now.

(Off Topic: LAWLZ @ the guys trying to prove r00t_b33r and 2500k wrong)

He did not reply because there is not one.
