Half the Notebook, Twice the Price

There has been much excitement over Apple’s newest notebook release, the MacBook Air–The world’s thinnest notebook.

With it’s undoubtedly sexy and sleek design, the biggest hype over the world’s thinnest notebook is just that–the MacBook Air so thin that it fits comfortably into a manila envelope and is estimated to be about the width of your index finger. But with a notebook that thin and it’s price of [starting at] $1800, are consumers yet again paying for the unmistakable apple logo on the back of their computers or did the new design really call for such a demand of innovative hardware that the price is justified?

Whatever the case, the MacBook Air is definitely pleasing to the eye and Apple sure did come out with a product that is guaranteed to sell just by the recent hype of the Apple name that came with the releases of the iPod and iPhone. Also, if anything else, they made jaws drop in awe with the MacBook Air’s first released commercial.
