Apple MacBook Air in short is super small, super fragile, and super light. Just a slight tap on the screen closes down the system completely.

Apple MacBook, being the lightest MacBook in its category, sets in in the spotlight, surpassing other MacBook. The depth from the back (at .76 inches) tapering towards the front bezel (at .16 inches), makes this the slimmest.

Most laptops have a thicker look, because of the flat level of thickness all around. the design of the Apple MacBook Air is curved with a thickness of .04 centimeters all around. This definitely puts it in the spotlight.

The few limitations, such as no connectivity ports or optical drive are overcome by the many innovative features. Standard voltage processing parts and full size keyboard, as well as having an internet connections, are among these features.

Pre installed software is a plus on the Apple MacBook Air. A few of the software titles installed already include: Mac OS Xv10.5 Leopard operating system, Safari, iTunes, iMovie, Xcode, Time Machine, and many others.

Active participation in Greenpeace has always been a part of Apple. Because of this, the case is completely recyclable, as well as the circuit boards being BFR and PVC free. The retail packaging alone uses 56% less material than the MacBook. It is also Energy Star 4.0 certified, as well as EPEAT silver compliant.

Price drops. As this is an Apple/early adopter device, the price will drop significantly for the next round. We saw this in the iPhone and we see it every time Apple astounds us with new products. It isn't just component costs - which will be significant - it's also the ramp up of production numbers which will bring prices way down. This could easily be late 2008 or 2009's MacBook.
But for a lot of people, these things - or anything else - don't matter..You know who I am talking about. The person who:

saw the machine and said "I have to have it" without needing to hear any of the details
has virtually unlimited discretionary spending money
cares much less about the specs and more about aesthetics
is spending most of his/her time on the web and email - who needs more of something to show off than a real workhorse.
Not to mention that these people will probably be the first ones to get the Rev 2's anyway.

Truthfully, there are a lot of legitimate reasons to snap up one of these beauties - and as they said in the earnings call last week, Apple is getting lots of orders for these things. But they obviously are only for the select few who can justify its unique characteristics.

For the rest of us, it might take some consideration, even if we lust for it like crazy at first glance.

Hey there Calvin/German guy.

Good idea! Just place a link to your review within a bunch of respected third party reviews.... It will fool all of us into thinking it's legit!

Seriously buddy - really?

Stop wasting our time.

Wasteland?

We already have the 'First Impressions and Notes' thread...

It's not super-fragile. That's just dumb.
