Apple Macbook Air

MacBook Air is nearly as thin as your index finger. Practically every detail that could be streamlined has been. Yet it still has a 13.3-inch widescreen LED display, full-size keyboard, and large multi-touch trackpad. It?s incomparably portable without the usual ultraportable screen and keyboard compromises.
