A few years ago I picked up a second hand 12" Macbook. Without a doubt it has been my favourite laptop I've ever owned. I'm pretty sure this is as close as they'll go to a chromebook competitor. I wouldn't want it as my main machine but for programming and general use on the go it's a joy to use. The dimensions are brilliant, it feels lighter than any chromebook I've used, and it has a "more full" OS than an iPad. I was so sad when I found out they'd discontinued the line. The battery is on it's way out now and the keyboard is getting worn out but I'm pretty sure I'll get it repaired rather than picking up anything else. I'm not one to buy apple products usually but I've been so happy with this purchase, I'm not sure another laptop will ever top how great this one has been for me.
