My thoughts on the Macbook Air

The Air was made for a specific group of people. That group of people includes business travelers or commuters and for those who just need a portable computer and not as much storage and power as you would get from the much larger MacBook or MacBook Pro. These computers are setting a new standard for the other companies that are producing portable machines. Some think that they left too many ports off of the Air. It has no firewire which I admit may be a problem for some, but if you need more than one usb port on the road you can just buy a usb hub.

The DVI port is for use with a portable projector, Apple doesn't think that you are really going to carry around an external monitor everyday. If you want to put a monitor in your house and connect it when you are home, you do have that option. Before you buy this machine, make sure you know that this is the one for you.
