Apple’s MacBook Air is, in a way, the descendant of the netbook of 2007 — it's a small, light, simple notebook made more for portability than power.
Apple’s newest, most powerful, and most refined MacBook Air finally reaches that ‘all-day-playback’ milestone that is so crucial for a portable device. It’s got enough battery life to last a full day of video, or even longer if you’re just browsing the Web or working. For the student or professional it’s a brilliant machine.
