Meet the newest laptop offered by Apple: MacBook Air. It weighs a mere three pounds, and is only three quarters of an inch thick at it's thickest point. It's ultra portable and ultra cool. And I want it!
It's got the same touch technology as the iPhone, so you can pinch and spread your fingers on the trackpad to shrink or enlarge text. The screen is arsenic and mercury free, so it's a green laptop. I normally leave the techno gobbledygook to B, since my eyes usually glaze over when he mentions RAM and GB stuff, but it's got 2GB of RAM and an 80 GB hard drive, for what it's worth. It's got pretty good battery life (better than my Powerbook G4 at least, which sucks electricity) and has the iSight camera built in.
It doesn't have an optical drive, meaning you can't pop a DVD or CD into it, but it has some remote disk thing so you can use a CD/DVD drive from another computer, or buy a separate drive that plugs into the USB port. Whatever - the point is it's ultra thin and ultra light, and would be perfect for travel.
I think it would be perfect for my new job as a field application specialist, don't you? *disclaimer, do not have the job yet*
