Oh so I finally joined the Mac world and my first ever track of the yearly Macworld keynotes by Steve Jobs. This year’s Macworld ended with cute new technologies from Apple. The most fascinating among them all is the new Macbook Air, not only is it fascinating but the most revealing technology ever as it is the thinnest laptop every made.

It comfortably fits into an envelope, weighs about 1.36 kg( 3.0 pounds ) and with 13.3-inch (diagonal) glossy widescreen TFT LED backlit display with support for millions of colors. For detailed technical specification, see here. Meantime, take a little teaser of it view.

Okay enough of the swallowing of saliva and day dream of owning one. MacBook Air is really geared towards the wireless community, it has no ethernet port, so forget about sticking in a RJ45 cable. With the lack of ethernet port, it seems not too ideal for the Ghanaian environment as most connectivity here really rely on cables. Well you can buy yourself an USB ethernet port and carry it around all the time. How about if you forget it?. Anyway I’m sticking to my MacBook Pro. Super!. By the way, MacBook Air is cheaper( $1,799.00 ) than MacBook Pro which is $1,999.00( the least ).
