hey guys what's going on this is Jonathan with TLD bringing guys a little update they announced the brand new MacBook Airs a smaller at the back to the Mac event I'm probably the only thing that was disappointing to me was the fact that they didn't include built-in 3G other than I look pretty cool the whole idea was that it kind of was like an iPad hooked up with a MacBook Pro or MacBook whatever that was kind of a theme behind the new MacBook Airs now these are gonna come in two different models 11.6 inch mono and a 13.3 inch model they're gonna start at $9.99 and go all the way up to $15.99 for the maxed out 13-inch model now getting back to how its like an iPad meets a MacBook is the fact that they're going with flash based storage so there's no optical drive and there's actually no hard drive even they're doing a 64 gig all the way up to a tuner 56 gigabyte just plain solid-state flash store just not a key traditional solid-state drive where they put it in enclosure the whole way Apple's pushing this is they're going on their design where they're actually putting it on the motherboard to save space they're really kind of pushing this as a portable instant-on device right now you guys can see the specs starting at the $9.99 model you get a 1.4 gigahertz Intel Core 2 Duo processor 2 gigs of memory 64 gigs of flash storage and nvidia geforce 320 m for the video card and you get the exact same configuration but double the storage for 200 bucks more and as we jump up to the 13-inch well obviously we get a bigger screen but we also get a bump in the cpu a 1.86 as opposed to a 1.4 that comes in at $12.99 for the base model and as we jump up to the Mac Daddy biggest MacBook Air configuration that comes in at $59.99 with 256 case of solid-state storage and the exact same configuration as far as a graphics card and the CPU now taking a quick look at the design and the look of these new MacBook Airs the thickest point on these is 0.68 inches and the thinnest point is 0.11 inches which is absolutely nuts now these are rocking the same aluminum unibody design as a macbook pro just a crapload thinner you get a full keyboard a full trackpad with the multi touch capabilities and the screens are actually pretty high res for the size of 13 is you get a 1440 by 900 display and for the 11 inch you get a 1366 by 768 camera the FaceTime camera because of the new app for the Mac to FaceTime app if you guys want some more info go ahead and click the annotation right here but I just want to let you guys know they do include a video camera on here that you can use for video chat not only for the FaceTime but for Skype and things like that so overall they're pretty cool they're not too expensive at the same time they're kind of just hanging out there it seems like an iPad or a MacBook for me I don't know if I would actually keep this probably geared for like the business person or that college student who doesn't really need too much power for a video editing or anything like that but it's definitely sleek it's skinny super thin so overall I'd like to get my hands on this they're actually available today so I'm gonna try to get one of these sometime soon for you guys to review but other than that I hope you guys enjoyed this little preview and I'll see you guys next time
