Thin is in, but does the MacBook Air have what it takes to compete in the crowded ultraportable category? Read on to find out!

Review Verdict: Those looking to find a fully featured multimedia notebook will certainly have to look elsewhere. There's just ONE USB 2.0 port available to connect an external device and FYI: not all USB devices may fit into the port - a major design flaw. There is an a

Apple MacBook Air Ultraportable Laptop

Comments:
Apple's second stab at the Air adds a better GPU but keeps the same shape--and the problems that come with it.

Review Verdict: Today, though, the MacBook is a better buy for all but the most extreme devotees of thinness and lightness. It's not that the MacBook Air is a bad laptop. It's just that Apple has made a faster, cheaper, and almost equally attractive model that costs hund

Notebook And I have never, in 20 years of using Macs, had a woman stop in a café and ask to look at my computer (or anything else, for that matter). The Air is so slim it looks like the lid of my Macbook Pro, although it's curvier, and elegant in i...

Review Verdict: Of course, to pack an actual Apple Mac into something this sleek means cuts had to be made - and Intel certainly made use of the surgeon's scalpel. A special version of the Core 2 Duo processor resides in the Air that is almost 60% smaller than the one it

Before you've even laid eyes on the MacBook Air, the very process of extricating it from its packaging frustrates and excites in a way that few technology purchases can. In typical Apple fashion, every detail has been considered, right down to stage manag

Comments:
The Asus GeForce EN8800GS TOP is a cut-down graphics card, designed to undercut the 3870 XT - and, perhaps, to even start to rival the budget-priced 3850 Pro.

Review Verdict: The story of the MacBook Air is a story about compromise, the decision about whether the MacBook Air is a product worth having can be answered by one question: How much are you willing to compromise? Judged merely on the cold technological specifications,
