In-Depth Review of the MacBook Air With Photos

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the long-road-ahead dept.

Engadget has the first really in-depth review of the MacBook Air that I have seen with plenty of great photos and specifics. They do a great job of highlighting the highs and the lows with plenty of concrete examples to back their claims up. It seems that while the MacBook Air is a great step towards ultra-portable computing, overall the pricepoint is just too high. Which is not surprising from a new Apple gadget I guess.

    I have been a personal computer user for 28 years. I have been writing software for 20 of those. I learned about 15 years ago not to buy the first of anything. Hell I even waited for the second version of the Honda CRF450 motocross bike (first one ended up with some issues) and honda is just about the best R & D house in the world. Why would you, I'm guessing at least a slightly intelligent person (slashdot user and all), assume something as uterly complex as an operating system would have zero bugs on its first release? Or do you just like to bitch?
