MacBook Air 2.13GHz review

Announced at the Worldwide Developers Conference, Apple's latest MacBook Air comes with a lower price point but suffers in terms of speed.

Weighs 1.36kg; thin; full-size keyboard; bright 13in display

Slower than all other Apple laptops; single USB port limits connectivity

If what you want out of your Mac laptop is the best combination of speed and price, the MacBook Air’s not for you. It’s hobbled by having a single USB port. Its processor is slow and it’s locked into 2GB of RAM. There’s no FireWire, no optical drive...

Laptop bliss...

Wow. I can honestly say this is the best laptop I've owned. I thought long and hard before buying it (for my business) looking at Netbooks, the Air, lighter Windows laptops and even the MacBook Pro. The final choice was always going to be a second...

This is the future of laptops

I love the solid state drive on this machine. Everything is so fast. Make sure you buy Apple Care - it's worth it. Be careful when using it in public. It is attractive to theives and muggers.

Apple MacBook Air

I purchased this laptop because I was attracted by the combination of a high specification and its light weight. I needed a laptop to readily take on holiday in my hand luggage to process and store photographs and to look after my investments.
