Apple MacBook Air - Extra Slim Laptop

Apple has come out with it's latest creation - the MacBook Air which is said to be one of the slimmest laptops around.

The laptop when closed is just a touch more than the thickness of the index finger. Though most details have been streamlined, it still has a 13.3 inch wide-screen LED display and a full-size keyboard.

One major component missing is a CD-rom drive. But it still has a Headphone jack, a USB 2.0 port and a Micro-DVI port. It's hard drive provides 2 GB RAM and a 80 GB hard disk space which is quite extraordinary from it's size. The micro chip has either a 1.6 GHz or a 1.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. The laptop also has a built in i-sight camera which is usually used for video chatting. It may be slim, but the battery power sure isn't. It can access the web for a period of five hours!

The MacBook Air comes with wireless connectivity with a 802.11 n Wi - Fi and a Bluetooth 2.1
It also provides for wireless back-up and wireless movie rentals (on iTunes).

The MacBook Air is coming on sale in the United States of America soon and globally a little later. Pricing starts at $1799.
