People love the Mac because, more than any other computer, it just works. Add in the fact that the average Mac lasts five years and the value proposition is pretty clear. With clearance prices on new in box (previous) generation, as well as big discounts on Apple Certified Factory Refurbished MacBook Airs, you can increase that already world beating return on investment.

All of the new in box and refurbished MacBook air models listed here are Mountain Lion Up-to-Date and come with free shipping.
