I absolutely love my macbook air. Had it for about 2 years now. Got the very low end model at the time and use it for software development and photoshop and it runs beautifully. My only regret is not shelling out a few more bucks for a larger ssd (i have the 128gb model). The battery life has been great even after 2 years. As far as build quality, I'd say its unmatched. I've dropped it numerous times and have never put a case on it. Never even put it in a sleeve. I've left it on top of my car and driven off. It has a few scratches, but thats about it. Maybe I've gotten lucky. |

That sounds awesome. I thought the battery would degrade significantly after a period of time like that.
Honestly, a big part of the reason why I'm even considering Apple is because of the experience I've heard with the iPad. I bought the original iPad when it first came out (in 2010), and I still use it almost everyday. I've gotten so much out of it.
On the other hand, the Nexus One (which I got in Feb 2010), fell once, practically stopped being useful after that fall - and to top it off (even if it worked today) Google has marked it as "obsolete" (and hence not worthy to receive any new upgrades). I paid Google more for the Nexus One, than for the iPad (16GB).
