Welcome to the new MacBook Air

[dangel]

Pretty thing - no doubt - but the lack of ports and the battery issue effectively kill it in my eyes. I rather like macbooks but this one.. too much style over substance this time?

Nah - it's for people who rather buy a Ferarri than a Lada.

actually that is a good viewpoint

but i would compare it to people buying a ferrari 250gto than a bmw 5 series...

edit - should be like lamborgini countach vs a bmw 5 series (because the ferrari 250gto actually was a performer rather than a looker at its time).

Why are you bothering to look in the Apple Mac forum section then?

Just trying to educate Apple users

I wonder who out of all the apple-bashers on these very forums have actually taken the time to get to know the OS. I'm not some apple plant by any means, I have a MacBook, a vista based acer laptop, and an XP machine. OS X is the weapon of choice i'm afraid, every time.

In not bashing the OS just the technology and peoples willingness to spend over the odds for a inferior spec machine.
I actualy think the OS is very good.

macbook air - for that price, it is for people who likes looking and hugging a computer rather than actually using it....
