MacBook Air Updated, Now in Small (13.3 inch) and Extra Small (11.6-inch)

When Apple said "back to the Mac," it really meant "back to the MacBook Air." The company's tiny, ultra-portable machine got a refresh today that added the buttonless multitouch trackpad already found on the rest of the MacBook line and a second USB port that is a very welcome addition for users who like to plug more than one device into their computer at a time. Otherwise, the internals are ...

Apple (Possibly) Reveals New MacBook Air and iLife in Forums

Apple is usually pretty good at keeping new products under wraps. [Ed. Note: Except for that whole iPhone 4 thing.] This morning, though, it looks like someone at the company is due for a talking-to, having jumped the gun on Apple's press event scheduled for later today. Overzealous forum moderators at Apple.com started threads for 'iMovie '11,' 'iPhoto '11,' and 'Garage Band '11,' revealing a ...

Help for a Hater: A PC to Blow Away Apple's MacBook Air

Dear Switched: Help an Apple-hater out. I've searched everywhere for the PC equivalent of a MacBook Air: super slim, light, with a good-sized display, a full-powered processor and good battery life at a similar price. But amazingly, I haven't found any to equal it. I can't stand the thought of giving Steve Jobs my loyalty, much less my cash, so help a hater out and JTMWTG! Dear Hater: We ...

Apple Working on 15-Inch MacBook Air?

Sketchy rumor Sunday, people -- Chinese site Apple.pro is saying there's a 15-inch MacBook Air in the works. That would certainly be an interesting compromise between portability and screen real estate, especially since the Air's new NVIDIA-based internals are actually somewhat capable, but we wouldn't bank on big brother making an appearance just yet. Although Apple.pro was right on the money ...

Faster MacBook Air on the Way?

File this rumor under the "sure, that makes sense" category. Granted, PhoneNews may not be the go-to source for Apple rumors, still, the site's reputable enough to at least give this one a listen. It claims that national retailers have been alerted to an imminent announcement of a new revision to the MacBook Air. More specifically, PhoneNews claims that the MBA will move away from the stop-gap, ...

HP Exec Cuts Birthday Cake with MacBook Air

Those that know Rahul Sood, founder of Voodoo PC and CTO of HP's global gaming business, might not be so surprised to hear he used a working MacBook Air to cut his thick, rich, chocolatey birthday cake.

German Users Claim MacBook Air Can Cut Through Bread, Flesh

Now, we know that the MacBook Air is one thin laptop, but some Apple forum members in Germany are claiming that the edge of the laptop is not only sharp -- but downright dangerous. According to "Apple Talk" reader Bajuware, his MBA went kill-crazy all over his elbow while he was cold-chillin' on his couch. The details are a little hard to suss out due to the language barrier (and machine ...

Martha Stewart Gets a MacBook Air

Martha Stewart - home maker, business woman, convicted criminal, and apparently part-time Apple PR rep. The queen of domesticity got her cupcake making mitts on a shiny new MacBook Air and blogged about her new gadget du jour. But rather than reading like a person simply in love with their new toy, Stewart's blog comes off more like a press release: "I was amazed by how razor thin and how light ...

Charlie Rose Saves MacBook Air Instead of Face

Well Charlie Rose has proven his dedication to the gadget gods. The well-respected journalist, while strolling down 59th Street in New York City, tripped on a pot hole and had to make a quick decision: Save his face, or save his new MacBook Air. In case you can't tell by looking at the photo, Rose decided his super-thin laptop was more important. But far be it for brutal facial trauma to keep ...

MacBook Air Selling Out Around the Country

Despite some mixed reviews, it seems that retailers just can't keep the MacBook Air in stock. Whether the reason is that the ultra thin laptop is inspiring hardcore gadget lust, or that Apple kept shipments low to give the illusion of demand remains to be seen, but one thing is definitely true: Trying to track an Air down is increasingnly touch at Apple Stores around the country, as the folks ...

New Fujitsu Lifebook Is Smaller, Lighter, and Cheaper Than MacBook Air

By "Air" we mean MacBook Air, of course, and we're always a fan of a little Mac vs. PC competition here. The Fujitsu P1620 Lifebook has just been announced, an update to its earlier P1610 ultra-portable. The new Lifebook P1620 offers the same processor as its predecessor, a 1.2 gigaherz dual-core processor, two-gigabytes of memory, and 100-gigabytes of disk space. All in a package just a little ...

Today Show Host Licks MacBook Air On-Air

Gadget licking: It's an odd phenomenon that we first heard of when gamer pin-up Jessica Chobot made a name for herself as the celebrated PSP licker. Since then, gadget licking (or GL) has became a bit of an underground trend, with Olivia Munn licking an Apple TV on G4TV and some dude licking his iPhone. However, it certainly didn't seem like a mainstream phenomenon -- until 'Today Show' host ...

First MacBook Air Reviews In, and They're Not Entirely Positive

The first reviews of Apple's skinny and sexy MacBook Air are in. The laptop is less than two-tenths-of-an-inch thick, but such slimness comes at a price ($1800-$3000). Even that price, the Air's minimalist hardware will make the Air a poor choice for no-compromise users, according to the first reviews posted today (the Air itself won't be in stores for another two weeks). Edward C Baig from USA ...

The Guys Who Waited 21 Hours to See Steve Jobs Live

Macworld 2008 is well underway. The biggest news, about Apple's super-slim new MacBook Air notebook and iTunes movie rentals, has come and gone, but not this post about some fanboys who waited in line to see Steve Jobs make his announcements. Five "excited" looking dudes had their undies in an uproar since 12 noon on Monday, first in the general admission line for yesterday's Stevenote. For ...

Apple Announces New MacBook Air, World's Thinnest Laptop

All the rumor-mongers were right: Apple announced the MacBook Air, the world's thinnest laptop. This beauty comes in at a ridiculous .16 inches thin -- so thin that it fits in a manila envelope. It features a full-size keyboard, so there are no compromises as far as usability goes. It also has a 13.3-inch display, built-in iSight camera, and a new, larger trackpad which does all the cool ...
