New Apple MacBook Air
17 January 2008
“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.”
-Introduction from Apple website
So finally the biggest inventor in PC - Apple, created a laptop which is finally can be called a “lap”-”top” because it is light and thin enough.
Good news for buyers, BUT Bad news for laptop makers. Buyers will have a brand new option to choose from. (although the pocket will hurt.) Bad news for laptop makers because they need to do a pretty big catch up. Buyers will start looking for laptops with the new standard - Light weight, thin as well as powerful laptops. Bye bye to those bulky so called “laptops”. If you are not thin and light weight and powerful enough, you are out.
Do we really need it?
It depends.
If you are looking for a laptop to carry around wherever you like, this will be the choice.
