$10,000? 😆 Please hook me up, too, while you’re at the Apple Store.
So it’s not charity, I can offer in return sometimes funny writing, and I have mean MS Paint skills. My rate is $10,000 a post. Thank you for your consideration. 🤣
Gurman knows absolutely NOTHING.
Utter hack and chancer, he’s been stealing info off twitter leakers for a while now after his spat with Prosser.
His ”leaks” are all guess work and irrelevant just to cover his bases.
Blue is probably Midnight, champagne is probably starlight and maybe a green and pink/rose round out the rest.

I want a midnight MacBook Air, it Would be fantastic.
I don’t care if it has a white bezel or keyboard, just give me a midnight or at least starlight if they’re going To be jerks about it.
I'd love to see the breakdown of the unit sold for each color iMac.
MacBooks in silver are literally the most boring dated looking laptops Apple make.
At least give us starlight to replace silver this time.
Please no. To me starlight looks like cheap sliver that hasn't been treated properly and has yellowed.
There is a reason why Silver has lasted as long as it has, it is a classic very neutral color.
I'm right there with you. My base Model M1 MBA is the best computer I've ever purchased, and it's hard to think it will be two years old here in a few months. The only thing that would make me part from my current M1 MBA would be the inclusion of a mini-LED screen, but that's apparently not in the cards.
Gosh you’re totally right. Lol. Forgot about that
I would say that Apple is kind of doing that now with only offering a true silver or black option with iPhone pro. The regular 13’s only come in champagne gold or blue black
Which literally goes anywhere from June to September.
So basically what you’re saying is, both Quo and Mark are saying the same thing, it could come in June, it could come in the fall.
Personally, given that Apple has already registered a laptop in the Eurasian database as far back as February, I don’t think they’ll wait until the fall.
Maybe ten years ago there would be excitement for colors… but I don’t get the sense that young people are going to be amazed and excited by colors anymore. I just don’t sense excitement around tech like back then when everything was “new and exciting”.
Maybe I’m just old.
So basically no one has a clue what's going to become of the new Air. Rumors have been all over the place in regards to this computer.
I guess it depends if you're going to put a case on it?
Who cares what color it is if youre going to throw it in a case anyway.
More like most people couldn't care less about colour (or even prefer it to be as neutral as possible), specially when it comes to a tool that is mostly to work with. Don't get deceived by the Air moniker, it's still a computer and many people that doesn't need a beefy CPU buy it instead of a MBP to work with. To consume content and navigate people already has their phone (most used content consumption device by far) and then their TV if a big screen is needed. Indeed, coloured iMac is an anomaly.
You should have absolutely no reason to move on from a one year old laptop to begin with 🤷♂️
This is probably due to supply chain issues since meeting the demand of Apple's best selling computer (and very arguably the best laptop available for the vast majority of people) is going to be impossible in the current environment. So complicating meeting that demand by having to guess as to which colors will be most desired will just lead to more frustration.
Why? Don't you have 5G on your phone that will be right next to your laptop? I've been linking my iPad to my phone for years and it works seamlessly. I've never had a workflow that put me off wifi on a daily basis though. But still the step to link to the phone once set up takes 5 seconds. I'd really really need to be working away from wifi a lot to make me pay for a second cell subscription.
