It was worth the money, sure. Now put on a par with this laptop Mac Book Air is like bringing two cars because they can roll. This is a very basic text input tool (with an average just keyboard) and surfing the web, with a beautiful self-important, but a low-end screen (not relevant to the tasks sus- cited).

Device to be considered for what it is, which responds very well to a very limited need, which remains the current use of those that are well on their machine. Now do a little photo editing Advanced, DTP somewhat advanced, drawing, 3D modeling, music. Forget all. Beyond the hardware, the software is not there.
