The new MacBook Air is ultrathin, ultraportable, and ultra unlike anything else. But somehow there’s room to add so much more. A bigger hard drive. A 4x graphics performance boost. And more power for everyday tasks. Mobile computing has yet another new standard.
The thinness of MacBook Air is stirring. But perhaps more impressive, there’s a full-size notebook encased in the 0.16 to 0.76 inch of sleek, sturdy anodised aluminium. The unibody design — formed from a single piece of aluminium — makes MacBook Air incredibly durable. And at just 3.0 pounds, MacBook Air is more than portable. It’s with you everywhere you go.
