I am sold on the MacBook Air

I have to say that I have only had a few days with the MacBook Air and I am sold on the MacOS. I know I paid a premium price to get it but it is well worth the extra cost. I also have the iPhone 7plus and it is also a premium price but I feel it is also worth the extra cost, as is the iPad Air 2.  The MacOS is great and very stable, and now that I have had time to learn how to use the one button trackpad system I have to say I love it. And this is coming from someone that swore by Microsoft Windows for a very long time. I used the version 1 and up, and I was a Microsoft Certified System Engineer for 15 years. And I have to say I have not liked Windows since Windows 8. Windows has been very unstable, and the Desktop has been getting worse, and even slower over the time of use.
I will update on my feelings on the MacOS as I learn to use it.

I made a promise to myself when I retired and I have finally kept it

Right before I retired I promised myself that I would stop using the Windows OS. As of this past Wednesday I finally managed to keep the promise. I have now gotten myself a MacBook Air, I have to say I love it. I also have the iPhone 7plus, which I say is great but I believe too large to carry around in a shirt pocket. I love the 7plus because of my old eyes I can read the screen so much better than I was with the old 5s. I also got myself an iPad Air 2 about 18 months ago and it is great for traveling. But I now have to say that the MacBook Air 13.3 inch is also going to be great to travel with. I never new a laptop could be so light and thin. I have to say that I have had 2 days of making mistakes with the MacOs and I have even reinstalled it a few times. I feel great about my switch.
