Its worth buying. They make very reliable products. I have been using mac book air for almost 6 years now, dropped it more couple of times, and its running without any problem whatsoever.
But with this budget, you can have more powerful choices in windows platform.

MacBook Air was launched in 2008. I suppose Steve Jobs sent CIA to deliver this classified-above-top-secret piece to you in 2006..

oops, a time guess. Didn't really remember because of its flawlessness.

I love Macs,but tbh the first gen of Air was pathetic!The Merom cpu sucked big time.
@o.p MBP 13 is a great laptop,but your choices of laptop baffled me.
There should be ZERO confusion between dv6 and MBP.
They belong to two entirely different segments.

More logical would be MBP 13 vs. ThinkpadT420
or,xps vs.dv6 and things like that.

If you go by raw HW specs,MBP 13 is grossly overpriced (so is T420)compared to dv6 or xps15.

If you need a laptop mainly gaming,MBP is CERTAINLY NOT FOR YOU!

For other needs it is a perfect laptop!
You should look into T420 also.
One of the very few dependable Windows laptop.

I think i am more inclined towards gaming so is HP dv6 6165 tx or xps 15 a good choice bcoz more same specs dell is charging more and moreover AMD 6770 is way better than nvidia 540 GT.
