Crap - I just bought a new Macbook Air the first day it was available. Oh well, I guess I'll never really notice...

Seeing as the 2013 MacBook Air had 2X as fast an SSD as the 2012 model, which in turn was 2X faster than the 2011 model and he 2011 model feels super snappy, yeah I think you're ok.

I have the 2010 model...probably time to upgrade...

Hopefully you'll benefit from a better build. My 2013 MacBook Air has a nasty issue where trackpad doesn't work properly if the machine is tilted even 15 degrees. The adapter has failed once already and the second one stopped charging last week.

Whatever you do, get the 3 year care is all I can say.

In the Netherlands, there are several shops that are offering 3 year guarantees on all laptops sold. Including Macbooks.

Considering the terrible customersupport that I've received multiple times from Apple, I bought my latest Macs at one of those stores.

I'm in America and I've never had anything but incredibly good customer support from Apple. Interesting.

When did you buy it? Did the 1 year warranty run out?

I got it 8 months ago but noticed the problem into the fifth month. Intend to have it sent in for repair when I can make time to part with it.

I bought 2 Macbook airs together, both have the same issue.

According to the replies above, you can run benchmark by yourself, maybe some Macbook Air still have fast SSDs.
