For the money, I'd stay with the mac book air,

 It's at least in NZ dollars, cheaper but has better specs for power and size,

 The new mac book is only 12 inchs, but the prcessor is a Mobile intel starting 
at 1.1 GHZ.

To me less powerfull than the Air, and as for the keyboard, I don't find the 
new mac book keyboard as nice to use as the keyboard for the mac book air or 
pro 
It to me doesn't have the same key distinction as the air  or pro keyboards, 
the keys are all flat and very little space for indication between each key.

The mac book is very sleak and light but for the power / cost  value I'd be 
looking at the mac book air devices.

But that's just my thoughts.

 HTH.

Subject: MacBook or MacBook Air?

Hi all,

I'm in the market for a thin yet portable laptop.

Despite the travesty that is El Capitan I would like to stay in the Mac family 
if possible.

Any suggestions?

I've been eyeing the sleek MacBook but the Airs also look good.

Have people tried the new keyboard on the MacBook?

Feedback is appreciated.

Best wishes,

Sadam Ahmed
