Macbook Air


slay

Recommended Posts

Just got a Macbook Air today... well, its okay, but 90% is hype if you ask me. I think its still heavy for its size and the battery sucks. I get like 3.5 hours out of it (while on wlan), thats ridiculous!

What are your Macbook Air experiences?

it has a 1.6ghz ultra low voltage cpu, and no graphics accelerator, i expect something around 7hours!

my 4 year old centrino notebook with 1.4ghz cpu (that takes much more power) and ati radeon 9700 graphics card had 4hrs already!

Battery life will extend once you use it several times. Mac air is nice if you're just using it for word, surfing, etc.

thats what I need it for :) which was the reason why I got a Macbook Air and not a Powerbook. I dont need a graphics accelerator and 20something Ghz and 400GB Harddrive.

I still have an iMac and Dropbox lets me share everything between them, so I think I'm all set. Just a bit dissapointed, because I was expecting a bit more.

I must say, I only bought it, because I paid 700 less than retail, so it was a good deal. I wont get the same deal on one of the next gen Macbooks!

Well, Leonovo and Envy are nice and all, but they dont run OS X :) :)

The other thing that really bugs me about the Air: I cant eat while on my laptop anymore!! I'm just too scared to make smudges on the keyboard or trackpad... :D:lol:

Um..yes they can. If you know what you are doing. When Apple moved to Intel they opened the floodgates, you can download OSX for Intel PCs if you know where to look. I have a Dell desktop running OSX.
