Apple MacBook Air (64GB) review
QuickTake:
Pros: Incredibly thin yet surprisingly sturdy; new trackpad gesture controls are very useful; remote optical drive makes living without a built-in drive much easier.
Cons: Very limited connectivity; slower than other MacBooks; SSD hard-drive option is ridiculously expensive and standard hard drive is small; battery is not user replaceable.

Apple MacBook Air (1.6GHz) Preview - Laptops
Comments:
apple macbook air (1.6ghz) review: Apple has released what has to be the thinnest notebook ever -- the MacBook Air.
Review Verdict: The MacBook Air is not quite an ultraportable, but still very small. Mimicking the 13-inch silhouette of the current MacBook line, it's less than 20mm thick at its thickest part. Apple calls it the "world's thinnest notebook."

Apple MacBook Air (1.6GHz Core 2 Duo) review
Comments:
It's light, it's slim. But is it sexy enough for us to ignore the stripped-down feature set and high price tag?

Although it makes some trade-offs to achieve its amazingly thin profile, the MacBook Air outclasses other ultraportables in terms of ergonomic comfort, display size, and performance.

Apple MacBook Air
Comments:
Gorgeous, expensive and exasperating in equal measure, and yet still desirable despite its myriad faults
Review Verdict: But the MacBook Air is a simply stunning example of fine design, and its vital statistics speak for themselves. Flat on a desk, the Air stands barely 19mm high at its tallest point, and on the scales, it weighs in at a featherweight 1.38kg

Review Verdict: The design is revolutionary, but Apple's MacBook Air will appeal to a smaller, more specialized audience than the standard MacBook, thanks to a stripped-down set of connections and features.
