X6. Although I don't want the Air because I have no mac at all. Still on stupid windows. I am waiting for the new macbooks to come out. Just still undecided on the mb or the mbp.

Doesn't have one.

I think your avatar needs to be updated urgently - try that sleight of hand stuff with the MBA - maybe even throwing in a bit of taking it out of the envelope, or juggling it :laugh2:

I gave my wife a MBA a few days before Valentine's day. She loves it!
I think it'd be great if Apple (or someone else) made a neoprene laptop sleeve that looked like a yellow manila envelope. They make them in all sorts of prints and patterns, why not a manila envelope facsimile? I bet that would sell well.

I hope you got the external CD player though.

[jjvaldez]

[jjvaldez]

i might get the drive for her b day but at the moment it does not even look necessary...

That picture looks like he is in a bathroom. lol

That picture makes me want an Air. I am trying to hold out for the new Macbooks, though, like JJ.

[jjvaldez]

I am in the bathroom .... Thats the only mirror in the house besides my gf mirror but I'm wider then that little mirror so I had to use the bathroom one..

[coasts]

oh...my bad.

forget what i said earlier. im living well, too. ive got drapes. really, i do.


what??

[Ramesh]

Nice! How's the performance? I saw one last night and was impressed on how small it is. I didn't have time to spec test it though. Doesn't it have a slower processor than MacBooks (which are cheaper)?

[Ramesh]

Did some googling, found this:

You gotta tell me Mr. Valdez - is it worth it?

How does it handle the web? Is it noticeably slow? I don't do a lot of powerful things, but I do run photoshop every once in a while, and that's not a lightweight.

[jjvaldez]

the net is ok .. i havent noticed anything slow

Enjoy your new MBA. I checked it out a few weeks ago at the Apple Store. It definitely rocks.

[techiegirl]

My husband needed a new laptop, so he took my MBP and bought me an MBA. I was against it at first, but now I really love my MBA.

I have see the MBA at an Apple store. It is very nice looking and has it's place for some people. I don't think running photoshop is one of them. I really think it would bog down after running pshop for any length of time.

[EMAGDNIM]

A friend of mine placed a order for his a little while ago. I should catch up with him to see what he thinks of it. I'm currently planning to buy a MBP this summer (upgrade from a MB that I'll give to my GF).
