    Resolved MacBook Air 11 in. (2015-2018) with i7?

    I have a couple of mid-2011 MacBook Air 11 in. The one with i7 is upgraded with 1TB SSD and newer BLE. I love it as a simple writing machine. But its lack of metal capability makes it impossible to upgrade past Catalina, and my writing tools want a late-model OS. I am looking at a used 2015 -...

    MacBook Air mid 2011 11'' stuck on white screen, no key combination works

    Hello! I was working on my laptop and suddenly a kernel panic (that's how it's called on forums) happened (with those chinese characters that demand an instant restart) and then my mac restarted. Then it took too long (around 10 min) for booting (showing apple icon and the loading bar properly)...

    Would I be crazy to trade-in my 10.2" iPad for an 11" MBA?

    I'm a fun-sized university student: a skinny and short twink. As the main computer in my dorm, I use the 13-inch MacBook Air M1, which does everything I need. I seriously love the horsepower this device offers for my writing and content creation needs, but bringing it to university in a...

    Magsafe I/O Board or Logic Board replacement?

    Hi there, I recently purchased an 11" 2014 MacBook Air from the facebook marketplace for $400 CAD. I'm feeling a little beside myself because a few issues have come up that I didn't detect initially when buying it and the seller was quite confident that aside from some lagginess when he...

Apple will likely standardise the keyboard of their MacBook lineup and go with their controversial butterfly keyboard, as...

    I can't open my Macbook Air 11 with one hand (finger)

    Hi guys, I have a bit of a concern. I just recently bought a Brand New Macbook Air 11". It's a late 2015 model. Authorized retailers here in my country sells it for a really low price. The laptop is good and all, but I don't think the build quality is that good. First off, when I checked the...

    Painfully slow late 2011 Macbook Pro - upgrade or move on?

    My late 2011 13" Macbook Pro takes 5 minutes to open a browser. It's the lower spec with 4GB / i5. I'm concerned that dropping 50% of the price of a new AIR to upgrade to usable isn't worth it. I'd be looking for this upgrade to give me another 4 years of 'light' use but importantly a computer...

    MacBook Air 11.7

    Alright, I will be honest. I am a fan of R2-D2. I like his small but cute stature. Which leads me to the MacBook Air 11.7. Another cute work piece of technology. Apple's first and last attempt to jump in to the NetBook craze. I currently own the 2011 MacBook Pro 17 inch. The second to...
