With new seventh-generation Intel Core processors, 12-inch Retina display,¹ a full-size keyboard, force-sensing trackpad, versatile USB-C port, and all-day battery life,º MacBook features big thinking in an impossibly compact form.

I have always had a MacBook Pro and now that I've finished grad school and was needing a new computer, didn't need the Pro capabilities (especially with the Pro price tag). I was between the MacBook Air and new MacBook. I think the new MacBook will get more future support (possibly supplant the Air). It runs fast, is ultralight, and definitely powerful enough for what I need. The only downside is the need for an adapter to input USB, HDMI, etc into the USB-C port.
