All of the Rage these Days...

Ahhhh! It seems to me that the only Apple product people are talking about is the Macbook Air, which was just recently released. To my surprise, I learned that the design of the IPad influenced the design of this new, tiny notebook, weighing around as much as a feather. With an amazing battery life and a multi-touch track pad, it seems as if this is the dream computer. Personally, I think it is great for some, but definitely not for me. I know that I am not alone here, but when I held the Macbook Air, it seemed as if I laid it moderately hard on a table it would shatter into small bits. For a teenager or traveler who tends to be stationary when using the device it seems perfect, but I could see how it could annoy businessmen in the future who get angry when the screen smashes inside their bag or if it is dropped. Size matters a lot (no pun intended) when it comes to the world of computers, but too compact of a computer does have its cons.
