My 2013 Apple MacBook Air 11 inch model which I upgraded during purchase to the following spec:
- Intel Core i7 Dual-Core Processor at 1.7 GHz
- 8 GB RAM
- 250 GB SSD
- Intel HD 5000 Graphics

It is by far the best computer system I have ever owned. I love how fast everything is and how easy everything is to get done. All my YouTube videos are edited from start to finish and uploaded to YouTube using this very machine. I also use a 23" Asus 1080P Monitor as a secondary display to complement the 11" screen on the MacBook Air
