Macbook Air
Posted by: markgilbert in Apple, Hardware, Technology, tags: Apple, Macbook Air, MacworldWell once again Macworld here and brought with it a whole host of new goodies.
First off the Macbook Air. Essentially a thinner version of the existing Macbook, but ohmygodhaveyouseenit? It is simply stunning. The features are as follows;
- 13.3″ widescreen backlit LED display
- Backlit keyboard with ambient light sensor
- 80Gb HDD as standard, upgradable to a 64Gb solid state drive
- 2Gb RAM
- 1.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo as standard with the 1.8 GHz upgrade option
- 802.11n
- 5 Hours of battery life
Things to note are no optical drive comes with the machine, but then at just 0.76″ at it’s thickest down to 0.13″ at the thinest it’s sort of expected, and when you realise it weighs just 1.36KGs it really is a very good prospect.
Cheers
