$530.00
Released January, 2010
The Pros:Runs fast, programs launch quickly and overall the system is very responsive. Affordably priced, within reach for almost anyone. Durably constructed, can handle being dropped without taking damage.
The Cons:Trackpad is unresponsive and difficult to work with. Keyboard is completely flat, makes it difficult to find the right key by feel. Battery generally lasts less than 2 hours.
