Mac Has Done It Again!

PC users can poopoo Mac all they want. Apple is years ahead when it comes to technology innovation. Period. Case in point: Apple iPhone. Now Mac has come out with the thinnest laptop ever – MacBook Air. Holy crap this thing is thin and light. Oh, to have one of those in the backpack when heading to school.

Here are some cool details:

• .16 inches at its thinnest
• .76 inches at its thickest
• 3.0 pounds
• 80 gig hard drive
• 5 hour battery wireless productivity
• 13.3 -inch widescreen display
• LED backlit screen (which consumes less power)
• Full-sized backlit keyboard
• Large touchpad with pinch, swipe and rotate (like with the Apple iPhone)
• Magnet-safe
• mico-dvi port
• iSight video camera
• Wireless backup using Time Capsule (a wireless external hard drive and wireless base station)
• And so much more
  

This is a wireless-based machine, so be aware that there is an external USB-based, slot loading, 8x, DVD/CD burner (called a SuperDrive). But how many of us, really, burn CD's and DVD's on the fly? I don't think I ever do it. I do it at home, but not out and about. But it is something that one must consider.

If the environment is important to you, the MacBook Air has a highly recyclable, mercury-free aluminum enclosure, mercury-free display with arsenic-free glass, PVC-free internal cables, and mostly recyclable packaging. It meets Energy Start requirements and received a Silver rating from EPEAT.
Wow, this is a real wireless laptop.
