Apple's Macworld 2008 booth is naturally gargantuan this year, but practically empty -- that is, if you don't count the teeming hordes of people surrounding the MacBook Air table and watching the presentations on the big screen. Apple only has its new product on display, which means mainstays like regular iPods, iMacs, MacBooks and MacBook Pros were nowhere to be seen. The booth is fairly dominated by an end-to-end table filled with MacBook Airs and their respective Apple guardians. Time Capsule seems a bit of an afterthought, as does Apple TV.



MacBook Air is nearly as thin as your index finger. Practically every detail that could be streamlined has been. Yet it still has a 13.3-inch widescreen LED display, full-size keyboard, and large multi-touch trackpad. It’s incomparably portable without the usual ultraportable screen and keyboard compromises.

sooo Damn Thin.....I WAAAAANNNNNTTTT it NOWWWW.......

@@ :rolleye :clap :what :please :good :shock :suki =O :sry :cool

i think i could snap that. :rolleye

Im not good with thin stuff sigh razor

I wonder how much it will be. Thats all I want to know. (Even though I'll never look into Apple stuff.....i hate apple)

its about 2000$ but i dont like it, it doesnt have an optical drive and only one usb port. i dont think i'd be able to use that thing at all 0_o

It's designed as a traveller's laptop.. Not an everyday use laptop. For that, there is the Macbook Pro.

It's for designers-on-the-go, Mac-oriented IT guys (like me, not that I have one), and people with too much money.

I must say though, that I rarely use the optical drive in my Macbook Pro.. It's only when I am at home or at a job that requires it. In these instances, an external drive would be fine.

But being able to take 1.1kgs out of a 15" laptop is no easy task..
