Thats Right: The MacBook Air

OHHHHHHH my god. I feel a little guilty typing this entry on my cherished Powerbook (which still has to see me through six months of design school without loosing my entire thesis — love ya babe!) but sweet sexy lord, the MacBook Air is ridiculous. I mean, besides the fact you can mail it flat in an envelope with room to spare (don't.. the post will kick the shit out of it, its still a computer) the interface features are beautiful. The trackpad is basically a mini Microsoft Surface. My brain cannot comprehend it. The photo does not do it justice. Watch these two clips.

Anyone who bought a Mac in the past year is going to be tearing their hair out.

That person tearing their hair out would be me. My laptop isn't even 3 months old yet. Damn you, Apple!

I'm still in love with my powerbook, but this new flat lovely just got me all excited! Kind of wish it had a CD driver though.

Yeah the CD drive is a bum. I never really use mine (it broke last year and I waited six months to fix it, b/c apple's optical drives are assssss) but I have the sort of paranoid personality that believes I will really need it, once its permanently gone.

It's more exciting just to see the future of the Powerbook.
