    	    <description><![CDATA[It's basically like this:

Macbooks are of a good quality. Apple is keen on creating good longlasting products. Battery duration time is nice. The OS is also very sturdy and well designed for it's purpose. Hardly no problems at all. Overall a very good looking product and very reliable. Which is what you want, if you buy it for work or hobby purposes.

The negative side to the Macbooks and Apple products, is that the products aren't very scalable or flexible. And the products are relatively expensive. Certain software won't run, or not that good on macbooks. You can't tinker that much on your Apple products to create a setup that suits your personal likings.

So for your GF, it would be a very nice choise. But if you want to create a gaming rig for Battlefield, TF2, etc, I'd pick a normal PC with windows on it.]]></description>

You can just dualboot to windows for those games for the best performance. The Air's onboard GPU is quite slow though, combined with a relatively slow CPU it's not a machine for gaming.]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[ty for a proper answer, koala.
the thing is that my gf was thinking of buying a macbook air, not sure which one.
her reason to buy one is cuz its ez to use and good looking (like mexDDDDDDDD)
but im kinda skeptical about buying one cuz she also likes to play games like sims and theres one thing that comes to me that mac cant run games for shit.
but can the macbook air give enough performance to run a decent game?
doesnt need to be at highest quality and fps

and to the rest in this thread, fuck off))9]]></description>
