I dunno; My Acer S7 was definitely a competent MacBook Air competitor. They were out there, if you looked.

Not stand-alone, no.

I've had the laptop since it was first introduced and I've found I've missed stand-alone function keys exactly... zero times.

Your mileage may vary I guess.

What about key combinations like Alt + F4? And triggering a build? Switching fullscreen with F11?

Also I don't have a picture of the keyboard at hand, but what about turning brightness / volume up and down?

I remember this being the only flaw I saw in the S7.
