The Apple pages keep referring to the refreshed MacBook Air as a "unibody" design. Does this mean that it shares the same overall stiffness as the aluminum MacBook/MacBook Pros, or is is still the thin "flimsy" aluminum like the prior-generation MacBook Pros - the kind where if you'd push or bump it any, it would have a dent?

thanks!

The air was the first unibody computer apple sold, they just didnt market the term till the other macbooks.

Apparently this is no different with the unibodies, judging by the number of "omg i have a dent in my new unibody/why doesn't apple fix it for free???" threads in the MB/MBP forums.
