Make no mistake about it, the new MacBook Airs are very good laptops. What they lack in speed and power, they make up for in build quality and big time battery life. Add to that gorgeous displays, solid state storage, and the unquestionably stable OS X, a...
Very thin and light for any notebook, Extremely fast SSD, Sharp, colorrich LCD, Fullsize keyboard and trackpad, Good graphics performance, Very long standby time, Finally two USB ports,
Expensive compared to some CULV systems, Uses an older Core 2 Duo instead of Core i3 or i5, Battery life is strictly adequate, No card reader or FireWire, No backlit keyboard.
The performance of the 11-inch MacBook Air, its form factor coupled with its bundled iLife suite of apps makes it a compelling purchase for many Mac fans as well as Windows switchers who either need a gradual easing-in with a notebook. As people who tr...
Abstract: When questioned about netbooks, Apple's chief operating officer Tim Cook said the company had "a couple of interesting ideas" about tackling a segment that has focused on bargains over speed. We've now seen what was meant by the plurality in that sta...
Abstract: So, if you're considering picking up a new MacBook Air one the first concerns you should have is what kind of power this little beast has, and if its going to be too slow for daily use. Unscientifically I can tell you, its a surprisingly capable little ma...

Gorgeous unibody design, small and built to last, excellent display and keyboard, peppy performance – especially for loading applications, finally two USB ports are included!, 30 days of standby battery power with instant on, system runs cool,
No SD card slot, unit is sealed so RAM and hard drive can’t be upgraded, no ethernet port, 4GB should really come standard at this price, battery life is a bit underwhelming, limited hard drive space, builtin 3G would’ve been a nice option to have, keyboard isn’t backlit
Fortunately for most tasks on the 11-inch Air, I'm not feeling like I'm missing the 4GB of RAM that I'm used too having in other systems, and thanks to its SSD Flash storage card combined with the Nvidia 320m, the system is very peppy, and handles in...
Exquisitely thin. Lightest in its class. Full size keyboard. Sharp, vibrant 11.6-inch widescreen. SSD is durable and quick. Good graphics chip included. Runs cool.

No SD Card slot, Keyboard not backlit, Lid sometimes falls back, Competing ultraportables have faster CPUs
This ultraportable breaks the mold with a strikingly thin and light design and the ability to start working (and playing) in an instant.
Abstract: With the new Macbook Air, Apple promises to deliver a portable computer that is lighter than the average netbook, comparable in size but with much more muscle, at a price which starts at $999. Among the features put forward by Apple: Flash storage, Mu...
