The laptop features a very smooth design, hidden ports, backlit keyboard (sexy but useless) and it’s small and light weighing in at 3 pounds. In fact, the MacBook air is .16 to .76 inches thin, making the profile a wedge shape. The size is bout 13 inches wide by 9 inched deep.
Eco lovers will be happy that the MacBook Air uses mercury and arsenic-free glass and less packaging.

MacBook Air is ultrathin, ultraportable, and ultra unlike anything else. But you don’t lose inches and pounds overnight. It’s the result of rethinking conventions. Of multiple wireless innovations. And of breakthrough design. With MacBook Air, mobile computing suddenly has a new standard. (apple) .. (source)

Ok, I'll admit, I am not only new here, but I am new to the Mac. After desiring to go wireless at home and wanting a secondary computer, I ordered the MacBook Air immediatly upon seeing it. I had been looking into many laptops but geeze...this one looks fantastic. Upon knowing this, I desire input. Remember, this will be a secondary machine, my first upon going wireless. Did I make a good choice? My primary uses will be chat (with sweet babes....kidding) as well as simple surfing the net. My daughter will use it more than me likely and she simply talks to her friends and uses Itunes. I'm not worried about the lack of optical disk as I apparently can use the "remote disc" feature should I need. That said, What can the experienced among you tell me?
I'm not sure about the MacBook Air.... Its kinda taking a step backwards with its lack of an optical drive... and that's a definite hinderance in portability by having to get an external drive.... but oh well, I guess you cant have everything... :)
It's nice to have this stuff, but when my friend told me that it's kind a thing to take care of...
It's a thin dude, you can't place it wherever you want.
then he advice me instead of, he let me buy the Toshiba Qosmio G45-AV690 which I find useful for me.
note: I'm not that kind of techie guy...

It is one of the most recent and best innovations launched by Mac. Being very thin this tech gadget is highly portable. Big track pad which comes along with it makes the laptop comfortable to use.
