New Ultra Portable MacBook Out in January?
While we hate to be the purveyors of rumors, particularly those of the Steve Jobsian variety, here's another one to sink your teeth into: AppleInsider is reporting that the long-promised ultra-portable Apple laptop will be making its debut at January's MacWorld Expo.
The system is supposedly a 13-inch jammer, and will come sans internal optical disc drive -- making it about 50 percent lighter than Apple's current 15-inch MacBook Pro.
The use of NAND flash memory, along with an LED-backlit display, will also supposedly help with battery life. Which it had better, because if we get another Mac laptop with a battery that dies in less than two-and-a-half hours, we'll refuse to buy another one (until the next one comes out).
Anyway, take this all wit a grain of salt. But we're excited, if (and that's a big if, which we even considered capitalizing) this is all not just a rumor. Which it might be.
Just saying is all.
