You can win Macbook Air at Macbook7. com. It is your lucky day! excellent video…
ugly asszzz mutha fukkaa.
Dude your ugly!
macs are good computers but my wireless keyboard i will say is cool but the input is just horrible seriously the max is like 2 keys which in my opinion sucks, even my old computer with its older keyboard had a 6 key input which was god like for me :/
MacBook Air is your ‘GOD’
lol
this vid deserves a cookie/”biscuit” for being… ummm… cookie-/biscuit-worthy
i think the best designed Mac is the iMac G4 without a doubt
It’s not too big for a desktop, the iMac has tons of space round the back
They could have positioned it just above the power cord it would be fine 
i know but they can’t put a normal dvi there cause it’s too big, LOL, the only Mac that has a normal DVI are the Mac Pro and Mac mini
I know dvi is taking over i prefer it to vgs, it’s just the new micro-dvi is another propriatery connection which is never a plus. The adapter is just something else you will need to carry around. I really hate that i had to pay £15 for a mini-dvi to dvi adapter for the imac, they could have stuck full size dvi on there lol
I think the air’s just one of those things where opinion is split like marmite you either love it or you hate it
i know the air won’t sell too much but i do think that Apple didn’t know what they wanted it to be, maybe they wanted an ultra-portable or a machine for businessmen or maybe for normal computer users, who knows but VGA isn’t a plus, in less than 2 years everything will come in DVI format, DVI is now taking control of the market and that’s the reason why Apple is facing out old technology for new one
you can’t see anything on a 7″ screen, most ultra-portables have a 10″ screen minimum and 16GB is still to little, if you put XP on it it will take a lot of space on the flash memory and the memory that will remain won’t be able for saving many songs plus some videos and many photos and i do think that they should have made it .75″ thick all the way cause then they would have space for Ethernet and maybe a normal DVI
Yeah music, phones are apples other markets. But business isn’t there hot spot. As very many mac users (inc myself) have said they wanted an ultraportable for the home user, cheaper than the macbook and compact. A SMALL screen and small form factor. Apple missed the point, thin doesn’t mean portable lol
A macbook would be better for business users just as portable with a hell of a lot more features wise
VGA is definately a plus as this is used absolutely everywhere, and doesn’t the airs adapter just go to VGA or DVI? The processor is enough for the tasks it’s made to do
Anyway Eee = £200 Air = £1199.
All the macbook air is eyecandy, apple just wanted the title of thinest laptop chuffin waste of time.
Yeah 7″ is small, which makes the whole unit compact. What are you likely to do on an ultr-portable web surfing, word processing, maybe the odd video so why the f would you need 13 inches. That makes it laptop size lol
OK small disk is a drawback but the HCSD slot compensates for that allowing up to 16gb of flash storage currently.
many businessmen buy their own computer btw and Apple is targeting at many different markets, which is what you have to understand, first Apple was only computers, then they looked at the music market, then at the phone market and now at the business market
your not making a point, 7″ is tiny no matter what and 4GB can’t be used for anything, the OS takes 1/2 the space and you have almost no other space left for storying files, and please get your info. right, the Eee PC comes stock with 512MB of RAM not 1 GB and it has a crappy processor and VGA is olldddd technology, everybody is phasing it out cause of DVI
again i updated my views on this in macbook air rant video, i can’t be arsed to type all night lol
And stop banging on about businessmen i can’t see any business wanting to supply these to employees for the simple fact business networks rarely use mac so network incompatability and software issues will arise from that. And if that really is it’s target market they’re aiming the wrong way, mac users are HOME users and a “macbook eee” would sell like well… the ipod lol
It sucks
OK, but for everything you said was bad about the eee is actually is plus points think 7″ screen = small footprint, 4gb ssd = quick boot/ 80gb 4200rpm = sloooow boot, the eee comes with 1gb ram and is USER upgradeable to 2gb. The eee does have a non-propriatary VGA port aswell (fuck the micro-dvi crap)
…
yeah but eee pc is a POS compared to a MBA, the eee PC has 512MB of memory vs 2GB that the MBA offers, the eee pc has a 7″ screen which is tiny, vs 13.3″ screen, it has a crappy OS and has a 4GB flash memory, vs 80GB HDD and it doesn’t have Wireless N networking nor Bluetooth, which is why it’s so cheap and the MBA is for travelers and businessmen, a businessmen doesn’t need more than 1 USB port, the USB port will be used for the flash drive and the Micro-DVi for displaying it on a projector
ok, but the point is, it’s for travelers or business men, let me give you an example, I’m gonna act as if i were a businessman:
On work, they ask for me to make a presentation and to make a chart on the companies revenue, i, on the MacBook air, open Microsoft Office 2008 and open Power Point and Excel and make the chart and the presentation, i arrive and work and do the presentation and i present the chart and all goes well, i think you got the point, right?
yeah, it may be thin but it’s huge in size, even when compared to a normal MacBook
ahhhh terrorist!! runnnnnnnnnn!!!
