Macbook Air

same here, but budget no big enough. i sat on this decision for 6 months. finally bought Dell XPS 1330, deal maker was the free 3 year warranty.Originally posted by Deino:i'll tot of macbook pro also.....its like my dream notebook leh......
i'm waiting for it to release its blu-ray version
i was worried that the macbook air trumped my xps too much... good thing many features i require the mba doesnt have. -

Vaio has one portable with Blu-ray drive. $7,200.

too true.. as usual a premium for the form factor.Originally posted by ^tamago^:Asus EEE with Windows XP does the job at 1/5 to 1/10 the price. -
nice, pretty.. but won't need one..
a MacBook is more than sufficient..
this is thin is nice.. it's sexy.. but what if i need to plug in something.. a client gives me a DVD or CD with the information, and i'm screwed.. i don't have wifi or whatever and there's an ethernet cable...
like a supermodel, it's pretty but also pretty vacant...
a true road warrior will stick to a normal MacBook or a MacBook Pro -
Hahaha...seriously...macbook is more worth it...Originally posted by ^tamago^:

imo, if they released an aluminum version of the macbook with backlight at a slightly premium price than the normal macbook, i think will sell better

Difference of $2000 for a flash drive + a mere 0.2ghz increase in speed...
Who the heck are they trying to rip off this time? -

it makes a difference to some games that you wanna play.... -
It's 0.2 ghz processing speed.Originally posted by Deino:0.2 times 2 you know......

It's barely going to make any difference at all, at least nothing notable without using programs to calculate the boost in performance. Plus, it's a CPU processor, whereas games require a dedicated graphics card which neither of them offers. -
Considering the small form factor(Of the processor) and the solid state drive, it is definitely not cheapOriginally posted by JennTS:It's 0.2 ghz processing speed.

The true innovation does not lies with Air, its how Intel managed to reduced the motherboard size to the size of a pencil.
