Thinnovative the new mantra of Steve Jobs.At Macworld’08 he introduced Macbook Air – a new slim 13.3 inch laptop that barely weighs about 3 pounds, sports a thickness of 0.16-0.76 inches, is 12.8 inches wide and 8.95 inches deep. These figures make for a phenomenally thin laptop that comes with a native display resolution of 1280x800.
However that’s not where the fun ends. Like the existing Macbooks, it has a full size keyboard which is backlit and sporHowever that’s not where the fun ets an ambient light sensor that can adjust brightness. In a move borrowed from its iPod and iPhone range, the new touchpad is capable of recognizing and using multi-touch. Another interesting option that the new Macbook Air offers is the option of using a 64 GB SSD(Solid-State Drive) as an option for storage. The standard HDD(Hard Disk Drive) has been slimmed to a normal PATA(Parallel Advanced Technology Attachment) 1.8 inch laptop drive.
For its processing power the new Macbook Air utilizes an Intel C2D processing running at 1.6 GHz (with 1.8 GHz being offered as an option), 2 GB of DDR 2 667 RAM on an 800 MHz FSB. The Macbook Air also sports USB 2.0 jacks, Micro-DVI support for external display connectivity and full support for both 802.11n and Bluetooth 2.1+EDR. In terms of battery life Apple has said that with the SSD option, the laptop is capable of easily introducing 5 hrs of battery.
