Oops-a-daisy, seems the MacBook Air was indeed a reality!

Yes, it’s light and thin and shiny and all things good - but it just doesn’t appeal to me.  I think I might be ill, it’s the first gadget to ever become available that I haven’t instantly wanted and thought I needed!

I can see the point for people who have to carry a laptop with them everywhere, as the lightness and thinness will surely win them over - but the fact the screen is still reasonably large (certainly a lot larger than the pre-Keynote rumours had us believe) means it’s no easier to operate on a packed train or bus.

I was thinking more about this having read numerous posts riddled with speculation.

While it would appear everyone is in agreement that there will be a new MacBook called the MacBook Air, I’m still not convinced!

I just don’t think they would have used the product’s name in the teaser promo, and if they did I would have expected them to capitalise it to read “Air” rather than just “air” - but perhaps I’m wrong, it’s happened before!

The picture Apple have chosen to use on the banners is of the upper portion of their logo, focussing mainly on the stalk and leaf at the top of the apple.
