The World's Thinnest NoteBook
 
The MacBook Air!

Quote:

The Macbook Air is about half as thin as a Sony ultraportable model that he uses for comparison--0.76 inches at the thickest part, and just 0.16 inches at the thinnest. That's thin; it's so thin, it fits inside one of those office-to-office envelopes.

the thickest part of the Air is still thinner than the thinnest part of the TZ series

It's got a 13.3-inch display, and it's LED backlit. It has the same built-in iSight camera as the other notebooks, and it's got what Jobs claims is a full-size keyboard, which is also backlit. The trackpad is "generous" and it has multitouch gesture support that expands upon the gesture support already present in Macbooks.

omg thats crazy....i want one lol

Bummer, I was disappointed to see that it was just a thinner laptop. I was really hoping for something to bridge the gap between a laptop and a pda. I guess I will just stick with my Nokia N800 for now.

pornask 01-15-2008 11:19 AM

this is all nice and shit, but it's still a fucking mac, hence thumbs down!

Babaganoosh 01-15-2008 11:22 AM

"It doesn’t have an optical drive internal, but you can buy a separate USB-powered SuperDrive that’s especially made for the MacBook Air. $99."

hahaha what a piece of shit

There are three things in the guts of the Macbook Air. It's got a 1.8-inch hard drive, just like the iPod Classic. This one ships with 80GBs, and you've got the option of a "pricey" 64GB solid-state drive

It's also got a very slim motherboard. This system uses Intel's Core 2 Duo, running at 1.6GHz standard, and you can go to 1.8GHz. It's not clear if that's an ultra-low voltage version or a standard version. Jobs says Apple asked Intel to design a smaller package for the Core 2 Duo, a 60 percent smaller version than the one Intel typically ships.

Here you go folks. Read it for yourself.

As always, in the UK these things cost $2400 and $4000, respectively. Just ridiculous...

Solid State Drives aren't cheap. If you ever get a chance to use one, you might think twice. So fast it's incredible.

Besides that, they offer a scaled down version for a fantastic price.

Need I point out:

ITS A MAC.


No thanks.

Mac makes awesome puters, but you have to be able to deal with them.

warlock5 01-15-2008 02:58 PM

Hopefully its a piece of shit so I won't be compelled to buy one.

SomeCreep 01-15-2008 02:59 PM

Wow, looks very nice.

jakethedog 01-15-2008 03:21 PM
