MacBook Air

May 8, 2008

(First thing- thanks again for the laptop)!

The MBA really speaks volumes about Apple as a whole- they target a niche for their products, and many times, the masses take exception with what they perceive as shortcomings of that new product.

The MBA is impossibly sexy, skinny, and light. It is also plenty fast for any portable computing- I don’t believe it was even meant to work as the primary computer for someone, but should satisfy those who stick mainly to surfing, email, and use of the i-apps. It’s easy to type on, the screen is incredible, and it’s light enough to go unnoticed in a bag.

My only con is that it’s missing one USB port, or one ethernet port. This does not mean that I’m suffering- but if asked, that would be my one suggestion.
