  • Depends on what you wanna do with your Mac Air. For me it was worth the wait and the extra expense to get the mac air (I do software development and carry my air on my shoulder all day, has never missed a beat). If your just writing word documents a…

  • and I thought i was the only one with this problem. It is good news that this is not just me and hopefully there will be a solution. It has hit both my iMac and MBP (now RIP overheated)
  • I don't know when but I hope it's soon. This being because they already have eliminated firewire from the Macbook line and was and is non-existent from the MBA line Maybe, they are banking on the new higher speed of USB 3.0 in their next revision. …

  • I don't know about isolated issue but I am waiting for my Air CTO to be shipped and it's passed its shipping date and so far no word from Apple either.
  • Don't remember the model name but I do remember it's made by logitech. Should be able to find it on their website.

  • You most certainly will be able to use your Macbook as a primary computer and replace your iMac, on the premise that you can fit all your data on the Macbook's hard disk drive if your not using an external. The bluetooth keyboard and mouse shoul…
  • I think I might be able to help. I have a roughly similar system. Firstly operate your BT Hub as normal, it should be distributing IP's and acting as the DHCP server. I wish I could disable this on mine (O2 Router) to have a server to do that but…

  • Maybe you guys don't use your optical drive but we have to remember that the Macbook's primary target market is students. Students do use the optical drives. They buy CD's instead of just buying them on the net. It's a nostalgia thing I think. I am …
  • Possible but unlikely since the Mac Pro is primarily used for high performance computing relative to the portable Macs and unlike the portable macs, the mac pro is not portable. I believe they will stick with discrete graphics for the mac pro, maybe…
  • I hope your right with that higher end Macbook Air configuration. That pretty much hits the nail on the head with everything I would want from a Macbook Air. I don't use the disc drive on my dying 1G Macbook Pro anyways, it needs retiring, the hardw…

  • After hearing that the event on Oct 14 is now official I can jump for joy. Now I can retire my 1st gen macbook pro since it's falling to pieces. WIN *hopes for macbook air update as well as macbook and macbook pro updates*

  • The keyboard imo is unlikely to be shrunken. We have to consider that Apple wouldn't even shrink the keyboard for the Macbook Air. So the likelihood is that that's a case for the 15" MBP. On saying that I prefer the ports on the left hand side like …
