10:16am - Pretty amazing. Again, you can see how beautiful and thin this product is. Now, how did we fit a Mac in here? I'm still stunned our engineering team can pull this off. There's three things in here -- battery, hard disk, and electronics. We went to a 1.8-inch hard drive." Same as in iPods. "Ships with 80GB drive, option of 64GB SSD."

1.6GHz Core 2 Duo
2GB Memory
13.3" Display
0.16"-0.76" thickness
Bluetooth and 802.11n built in

$1800. Frankly, it's reasonable for its size.

It's not that strong a computer, I bet it has that shitty GMA video card. I could get a similar power Dell for much cheaper at the sacrifice of size, and have enough money let over to buy an HDTV.

edit - That said, I'd buy one if I had the money but damn man

It's the design, thinness, transportation and such good specs in such a *tiny* laptop that make it a high price. I still love it.

I gotta agree, The price is crazy just so you can have thin laptop which most people will accidently snap in half after sitting on it.

For the price of it I could get a nice beefyDesktop replacement and get alot more enjoyment out of it, whilst working out at the same time, work on my arms with their shear weight, and also my legs running to find the charging cable ever 20 mins when my battery dies. Will you get that with the fancy Apple? No.

What a lame laptop. If it was actually something powerful, I would say kudos. But it's just an underpowered POS with a huge price tag. Yea, it's cool how small they made it. But that's it.

Only thing Apple is doing right is the iPod and that's about it.

They're doing that right? Oh dear...

The MBA is nice and everything... but far and away overpriced - I can't say I didn't expect it though, them being Apple.
