MacThin is in


So what was in the air at Macworld? The MacBook Air, that’s what. In his keynote, Apple boss Steve Jobs unveiled the “world’s thinnest notebook” and at 3 pounds, 0.76 inches deep (that’s about a pencil width) and a 13.3 inch screen with an 80GB hard drive, it looks a beauty. No touch screen but you can perform many of those cool iPhone tricks on the extra large track pad. No CD/DVD drive either – that’s a $99 extra. Looks great but $1,799?! Are you kidding? For now, I could live with the extra two pounds on a MacBook. Among the other announcements: the very cool Time Capsule - an automatic wireless backup in 500Gb and 1TB models that also doubles as an Airport base station; a bunch of added features to the iPhone and iPod Touch, a cheaper, standalone Apple TV; and movies to rent from iTunes store – in HD too (but of course, not if you’re in Bermuda).For more details, check out Macworld’s coverage
