Yeah, Apple has hinted that the new MBAs will have i5 and i7 (Intel's new kick-a** Sandy Bridge) processors. I always liked the concept of the MBA, but to me its just an over glorified netbook. Crappy hard drive and CPU power, but hopefully Apple will change that.
I remember when the MBAs
started at $1799 and I was like
. At $999, it's a decent deal for a mac, but if they want to really be competitive, they will have to drop another $100 or so to entice the upper-end net book shoppers.
OS X Lion looks amazing. I can't wait to get my hands on that, and I'm impatiently waiting for the new iPhone/iOS 5 to drop so I can get rid of my god forsaken BlackBerry once and for all. The fact that OS X and iOS are now fully integrated is ridiculous... Maybe the MBA will fit in with iCloud somehow and make it as popular as the MBPs.
