Wired: Apple Launches New MacBook Air Mini Laptops

The new MacBook Airs are thinner and lighter and promise better battery life, and with a future operating system upgrade will also offer multitouch touchscreen functionality.


“CUPERTINO, California — Apple on Wednesday released a major upgrade for its mini notebook, the MacBook Air, splitting it into two sizes.

The MacBook Air will come in two flavors: a 13.3-inch model and an 11.6-incher. They both will come thinner and lighter than their predecessor, with improved battery life that’s similar to the iPad’s, the company said.”
