I'm not even sure what year this model is. I tried looking it up on Apple's website too, and the serial number under the "About this Mac" section is invalid. The battery life is very poor. It may last a couple hours of just browsing without plugging in and that's it. It also needs to be plugged in after sitting, even if the battery life was full when stored away. While one would probably want the small compact computer to be good for traveling, the lame battery life makes it terrible for travel. Everything else has been fine.
