Question: 8gb option is a HUGE request.   Any idea of when or if this will be added?
Document: Micr$&@? has no idea the definition of the words useful, reliable, quality, performance, robust and easy.My Mac air has added value buy successfully performing the requested task and having zero computer software and hardware issues. It easily connects to my iPhone, iPad and the world every time I use it. Thanks Apple!
Buy this laptop, you won't regret it. In addition, do consider the 8Gb RAM upgrade. Of all the nifty upgrades Apple offers for this book, this one is the most economical and still offers a benefit in performance.
The Air is just that, air. It's sooo light and easy to handle. Screen has great resolution and it's fast. Being a long time (and old) PC user, it's taking a while to learn the power of this new OS, but getting there. Still, all in all, the MacBook Air was a good idea.
I was looking for a second laptop and was considering getting another Macbook Pro, but after reading reviews it seemed that the Macbook Air might be the better option. Glad I took the time out to make the right decision, the Air is much more responsive.
Now I really wish I had gone ahead and upgraded the SSD also since the factory software, Office, and a few other programs I've added as well as my music library has me down to around 20GB of free space, yikes.So here goes. First, the good stuff:1) The battery life.
This is a beautiful computer. It is thin, light, does not overheat. No radiation heat headache or skin burn from this computer. You don't even miss the disk drive. When you think about it, everything is downloaded now. Disks are not used that often, and when they are needed, there is the option of an inexpensive external disk drive.It's simply an amazing computer. Turns on in seconds when you gently tap the button. Super fast. Quiet.
Over priced, but otherwise great. If you are debating an IPad vs. MacBook Air, and you are a student spend the extra money on the Air. iPad does not have a mouse option and you would have to touch the screen for some functions even if you buy a wireless keyboard for it. Also the Air has the full function program of Pages, and you can buy Microsoft Office for it as well. I love how light it is also.
Not thrilled but happy. Replaced an older MB Pro 13" with this one (also 13"). Just got the least expensive option I could live with that would keep me in a mac. Feels like I am addicted to macs and beginning to notice they really aren't a great value yet I can't even believe how awful the windows experience is in comparison, so here I am.
I reluctantly bought this because I was a Windows power user but after working with a network engineer he stated Apple is the future in private industry. I took the plunge since he stated Parallel 7 can allow you to run windows on mac. After 2 weeks of use this has to be one of the best ultra books  I ever used. Thin, light, and powerful with the option of windows.
Hook it up to a display for added workspace. Back up to an external drive in minutes thanks to thunderbolt, which is insanely fast.Unless you're a professional photographer, a hard core gamer, or a 3d/animation professional, there is no reason to go for the far more expensive 15" mbp retina. If you're an all-rounder design based thinker, using the machine for communication, making sketches, prototyping etc, this is the machine to go for.
Answer: This is not one of the base configurations for the MacBook Air, and thus Amazon.com won't offer it (it has never offered more than base configurations in the past). If you would like 8 GB of RAM in your Air, the most popular options is to order it from the Apple Store: http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/family/macbook_air/selectI understand that B&H; may offer some 8 GB configurations, but you're guaranteed to get exactly what you want if you order it from the online Apple Store. That's what I did for mine - I have the 13"/i5/8 GB RAM/256 GB SSD configuration.
