It seems like Apple launches a new must-have product at least once a year. It's a normal occurrence to see a new Mac for sale about every eight months.

With such a high number of upgrades, it's tough to understand all of the pros and cons. Let me break it down for you. I'll go over all the computers Apple offers and what each one offers.

Let's start with the more popular choice: laptops. Apple offers two different Mac laptops. These are the MacBook Air and the MacBook Pro. As of July 2011, the regular MacBook has been discontinued.

MacBook Air

The MacBook Air started as the go-to Mac if you're a frequent traveler. It then became Apple's budget laptop option.

The Air comes in two sizes. There's an 11.6-inch model for those looking for a super small laptop. And there's a 13.3-inch model for those wanting a bigger screen.

To keep its size down, the Air has a few space-saving features. Perhaps the coolest is the flash storage. That means there's no physical disc that holds your data. This is a more reliable, quieter, and faster method of storing information.

Flash storage also makes booting up, opening programs, and browsing through media extremely fast.
