thats like 200 dollars for a pc laptop. and the only reason it would EVEN cost that much is because a store wouldn't carry it otherwise.
god my phone is more powerful then that thing

I bet my video card I'm going to get in the summer will be able to overclock more processing power then the macbook air processor.

Its sad when a 1200 dollar laptop only has .4GHz more processing power than a modern smartphone (EVO)

It sickens me that people buy this stuff.

My 7-years-old computer has that specs, with 500 MB RAM off. (1.5 GB RAM)

This could be usefull as a mobile terminal of sorts within a large campus to link to various mainframes and use them for the more intensive calculations and stuff.

Getting close but not quite.
As a computer itself... lolnope

~~As a convenient mobile interface yeah~~
Lol whoops no:

Air lasts about 5 hours on a charge

The "new" macbook air is stuff?
Because the previous one wasn't?

The new one being stuff is not exclusive.
Don't be such a douche.

To be fair, the SSD can make the price of any computer go up by a lot, and since this one has such a large capacity SSD...

...oh the forget who am I kidding look at those specs, my M11x costed almost $200 less than that and yet my M11x has better performance, better battery life and better everything.

Hey my friend said he was going to get the cheapest macbook pro and I told him he'd be better off getting a PC laptop for the same price (About £1000) Are the mac book pros bad aswell?
