@ The Bad Guy
I don't know... the way I'm using my Macbook Air, I could see myself using this for years (as long as the battery keeps up - considering I've used 26 cycles out of 1000 ever since March?)... I'll RDP a lot for my IT work, type a lot for my programming job (google to figure out code), emails, watch videos on liveleak, and read a TON.
I think if people are gaming on the Macbook Air, lifespan might be more of an issue but if people are like me, they have a gaming system at home for that. So for people like me, the Macbook Air is going to last years.
How many people use Airs as their primary PC? I think the more technical crowd will have Airs complimenting a machine at home while the less technical crowd will have an Air for college work or just checking email with the occasional youtube video and won't be gaming as much (at least not on a PC, maybe console).
