My MBA internal fan never spins mainly because I didn't run heavy application.

Not even once.

Really? It's really super quiet then. I thought that with Haswell ULV proc the fan would only spin when reaching certain temperature. I couldn't hear the fan at all.

No. There aren't expansion slot & the ram is soldered to the board.

But you can request for 8gb upgrade but once final delivery, that's it.

512 SSD is bad?

Large space is good mah. Only drawback if spoil very expensive to replace with the same capacity if didn't buy apple care.

Mine is 256gb already used up half mostly audip podcasts, ebooks & manga. My " " stuff all place in external hd. Dun wan kena kantoi.

Is it everytime you turned on?

Something's not right there. My 2013 Macbook air take a lot less time than that.

If you have no confidence in online purchasing, you can request Apple authorized dealer near you to make custom order.

The same thing really, only have to drive to the shop to collect it.

MBA 11" Mid 2013 owner here. Very snappy notebook. 128gb may not be sufficient if you're planning to dual boot but by itself you should be fine. No SD card slot for 11" model though.

I didn't opt for dual boot so my 256gb still have plenty of space even with some Steam games installed (Thank you Lord Gaben for allowing us to install cheap Mac compatible games without having to pay twice).

There're rumour flying around that Apple is gonna make USB-C port a uni-port. Doesn't sound great but I'll take it as a grain of salt.

Too many questions & too little clues.

I'll wait & see how it goes.

I'm surprised that they even bothered to refreshed MBA, which is great.

Even though MBA has lower res & gamut screen, the beefy spec makes up for that. Upgrade to 8gb ram & you're good to go.

My MBA 11"2013 still have muscle to run lots of stuff, I'm good.
