I haven't owned a personal laptop in a few years. When I picked up an iMac as a gaming machine (they do quite good at that with bootcamp, y'know, if you order the right one) it became my central computing platform at home.

I'm sticking with my mid-2013 MBA 11". I like the reversible power couple... But I prefer the magsafe. It's just too easy to have something in my hand and be yanked.

But I'd love the new connector in my phone...

I was worried about the almost-zero-travel keyboard, and the not-really-clicking trackpad. Then I played with one at the Apple Store and was like HRRNNGGGH I WANNA ROLL AROUND ON THIS FOREVER. <3 <3
