There isn't one. There's the MacBook Pro, which is the higher end laptop line and the MacBook Air, which is the lower end. That said, both the current Pro and Air are thinner than the original MacBook Air and the same weight or slightly lighter.

That may be, but there is no 11" model so it's a bigger thing to put in my briefcase/bag ...

I knew I should have purchased three identical 2015 11" MBAs ... I bought two and I am on #2 now ... when it breaks there is nothing to replace it with.

Still using a 2012 11" MBA and have only had to replace the battery once. Occasionally open it up and replace thermal paste but that's it.

Ah right, the screen size and case size. I forgot about they were smaller in that respect, sorry.
