The Macbook Air is now available through Apple’s website and I have to admit that it does look sleek. The problem I have with the laptop (referred to as the ‘MBA’ by Mac lovers) is that it isn’t meant for everyday laptop users.

The $1800 stock MBA unit comes with a 1.6 GHz processor, 2 GBs of RAM, built in Bluetooth, backlit keyboard, and built in 802.11n wireless connectivity which is just over the minimum for what someone would need in a laptop nowadays. It’s also very small; just over 12 inches wide, 8 inches deep, is less than 1 inch closed, and weighs only 3 pounds. It even has an estimated battery life of 5 hours with the wireless connectivity enabled. All of this sounds great right?
