The Worlds thinest Notebook
MacBook Air is ultrathin, ultraportable, and ultra unlike anything else. But you don’t lose inches and pounds overnight. It’s the result of rethinking conventions. Of multiple wireless innovations. And of breakthrough design. With MacBook Air, mobile computing suddenly has a new standard.”
This is seriously thin and beautiful but have Apple lost a little too much?
Some of the new feautures are fantastic such as the iPhone/iPod Touch style touchpad where you can pinch, pull, push and pretty much manipulate as you like.
Hidden USB, Headphone Jack and DVI port, nice but who in this day and age only uses 1 usb port!?
MacBook Air is the notebook that allows for a fully wireless lifestyle. It all starts with the fastest-available, next-generation 802.11n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR built in. And that’s just the beginning of the unprecedented wireless capabilities of MacBook Air.
No Superdrive. Though still as easy as 1, 2, 3 with Time Capsule. I like the idea of wirelessly stealing (I mean borrowing) someone elses CD/DVD drive for a few minutes though what if your on the move which is the whole point of a laptop, do you walk up to the closest person on the train and ask Sorry Sir, do you mind if I borrow your CD Rom / Superdrive for a few minutes oh and by the way could you just install this bit of software to enable me to do this wirelessly.
In conclusion, some really nice ideas but for the price and the areas it lacks in I think I will stick with my MacBook and look to the future and may purchase a PowerBook. Well done to Apple though once again the leaders in “New” and “Thinking Outside the Box”
