Hi Wendy: I'll leave the descriptions to others here, other than saying the Macbook air has no cd/dvd drive, is lighter, and it's hard drive is a solid-state as opposed to optical. But you might want to take a look at the Apple site. Under the Mac heading, there are good explanations and comparison tools. There is also some helpful information about making the switch from pc to mac, as well as information on accessibility. If you type switching, or accessibility into their search box, you'll likely find some good helpful info.
