  • @jayroalvarez i dont believe it why would you tell everyone about it you get less of a chance to win

  • i would say the mac book pro is better... this isn't worth as much as it costs....

  • My coworker has one of these-- I'm sooo jealous!

  • $1049.99 for a laptop that has one USB port, no CD/DVD drive, no ETHERNET PORT(YEAH MAKES SENSE) and a core 2 duo processor. Oh wait! It can fit in a manila envelope... I guess that's how morons consider it "revolutionary", or even justifying the price.

  • @carefulwiththat Just swapped my $3000 Lenovo for a $2600 MacAir and am so glad I did... faster, lighter and more stable.

  • @Shiplodicus

    Good for you. Did you fork out extra for your external disk drive?

  • @carefulwiththat Don't have one, dont need one. Just download drivers from the web. Quick, easy, clean. Why pay for and carry a drive I do not need? You still have a floppy drive?

  • is it good for a 12 year old

  • nice review 

  • i like the mac air because its ultra portable (extremely light) :)

  • I think its good for me since i only ever use the usb port. But i do need a dvd drive so ill stick to the pro

  • I'd be afraid to snap it when im putting it away or getting it out of the case O.O

  • where is the dvd drive!!!!!

  • @legodudes9 its called a mac mini...you need to buy it seperate...which is why im starting to reconsider buying a macbook...

  • Your hand was spasming during the video..

  • Looks like if I drop it It will split in half

  • Is this a good laptop for high school?

  • @TheHowToGuy97 no to much money, to little power. pay half the price and get an asus or something with modern processor instead of its dated intel core duo.

  • CAN YOU STOP OPENING YOUR FUCKING HAND EVERY 5 SECONDS

  • I don't get it? For the same price you can build a monster gaming Rig WITH a Blu-ray drive... Plus you get a better operating system (Win7) that runs CAD and Adobe software better then a mac.

  • @sod16 For a $1000 and Windows 7 you get a insane rip off! Is wonderful that people aren't spending on trash any more these days.

  • @icoopers Well sir, I didn't understand a word you said but judging from what you said you don't know shit about anything. So silence.

  • @sod16 Hurt Pointless Crap user? Of course you don't understand a word. Is known that Pointless Crap users are dumbbbb, not that I'm judging you. Move along now... :)

  • @icoopers Says the mac user who spends 1grand on a limited overpriced PC with a shit operating system.

  • @sod16 I trust you'll get over this harsh and sad moment. Some one should of told you that Pointless Crap are no good :(

    I promise you'll be fine. Just don't loose faith.

  • @icoopers You clearly don't know anything about computers, specifications and performance. You also clearly never programmed in your life nor used a computer for anything constructive.

  • @sod16 Your A B S O L U T E L Y right!. I never had to play "IT" with my Mac BC it just works :)

    You Pointless Crap users are so dumb and absolutely tasteless and full of old school info. Move on man... your looking like a granny. No one uses a Pointless Crap any more these days.

  • @icoopers Really now? You have evidence to support that "it just works", because in my eyes you cannot play triple A games so yeah, it doesn't just "work". You pay £1000+ for a 13" screen and specifications that can't even match a Galaxy S2. Pointless is when you cannot use it for anything and you pay too much for something, so you my friend have pointless crap.

  • @sod16 ABSOLUTELY :)

  • @icoopers So basically you admited that you bought overpriced pointless crap, I feel sorry for you.

  • @sod16 "Very overpriced"!! so much so!! that every two years or so I get to sell my current Quad Core iMac for just about the same I paid when new. I literally pay about $400 every time for the top of the line iMac every two years and this, every time. :). Can you buy a Quality quad core Pointless Crap for $400?? eh? what was that?? again, a little louder please... Save your bullshit bc, every one knows the kinda Pointless Crap you can get for that price.

  • @icoopers And how much did you first pay for the iMac? I'm sure you didn't get your first for $400

  • @icoopers Oh and that $400 every couple of years can get me a new graphics card/CPU etcetc. Meaning the computer I, or this Sod16 owns is still much, much better.

  • @darksk8crow Well... I'll invite you to (try) and do the same with your wonderful Pointless Crap user. Good luck! :)

  • @darksk8crow That's what the sales men always tell every one :).

  • @icoopers Your top of the "line" iMac would cost me £400 to make spec for spec. You realise the one thing ALL apple computers do not have is a Graphic card decent enough to run anything? Mate, you don't know ANYTHING about computer hardware. The fact that my 2006 Quad core is still far more powerful then any iMac says a lot... I clearly don't need to upgrade every 2 years because my system didn't suffer after 1.

  • @sod16 Right right... well!!! with the exclusion of Windows installed on your Pointless Crap of course. Besides that is "wonderful" "I'm sure"...

  • @icoopers Basically, you where proven wrong. So please, silence. Windows OS has more users then Apple OS and in professional industries people still use windows, so there is a little hint of it being better.

  • @sod16 No you moron! Theres more Pointless Crap users bc There was literally no Mac at the time and Windows was all there was and TWO, today most Pointless Crap users are business/companies you dumb Pointless Crap user. Apple is not here to compete with Windows nor to have a bigger piece of market with under quality products, All Apple cares about it engineering quality head on products. It actually does not matter if Apple surpassed MS in Cap Market share of even in Q revenue.

  • @icoopers lol ur so fucking dumb. And you also talk like you know what Steve Jobs motives are.

  • @xNfs4masterSx LOL! that's BC Apple is dead on clear and I know exactly what I have unlike you Windows Crap users. But that's actually simple, You use Crap.

  • @icoopers You dont even have a case. You only dislike windows... well for NO REASON AT ALL. WHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT STOCKS. You can build a custom desktop for windows that cost like $600 but is faster than a 27 inch iMac. So stop talking trash about Windows cause you and your Shitbook Pro have got nothing over the Superior Windows Race.

  • @xNfs4masterSx Seriously don't be pathetic. Since WHEN any one is into building anything?? I'm afraid to tell you that your wonderful Pointless Crap is worthless no matter how many cores the ugly thing have. Especially if is a home made bomb. It has no value. And the only purpose you have for this useless piece wonderful bird pooh is gaming. Seriously, what the hell are you talking about. NO one these days use Windows. NO ONE! I suggest you hold on tight to your PC bc, is going to be gone soon.

  • @xNfs4masterSx LOL!!!!!!!!! you made me LAUGH!!!!!!!!! :) GOOD ONE!! "SUPERIOR WINDOWS"!! Your good :) I didn't know you Pointless Crap users had it in you. Oh silly you.

  • @icoopers See, you have no case at all. All you do is insult the Superior Windows Race. Stop trolling AND FUCK OFF.

  • @xNfs4masterSx Sad :(

    :)

  • @icoopers ?

  • @xNfs4masterSx ? @ <

  • @icoopers I dont understand your comment "Sad :(

    :)"

  • @sod16 All we care if for a useful, quality, beautiful moving forward products.

  • @sod16 Your so silly :)

  • @sod16 You must be in total break down just knowing that the world does not want useless trash like Pointless Crap any more. No more support for Windows :(, It had it's time and it wasted it by being a beyond pathetic with it's OS. The game has change my Pointless Crap user and it haves Apple's name all over it. Your far behind and it's really up to you to catch up. You can't afford a $1000 Mac? get a refurbished one. Lacking the ability to afford something is really not Apple's fault is it?

  • @icoopers I'm spending $1600 on a Windows gaming rig which would run hoops around your Mac. I genuinely do not see why people think it's smart to spend however much on a Mac, when for the same price, or much, much lower, you could get a system far better.

  • @icoopers Why would I pay $1000 for a 1.4Ghz processor and 2GB of ram? What use is that to me? What am I going to do? Lag on youtube? For the same price I can get 8 cores and 16GB of RAM, really now, who's the idiot now? Just because you're too retarded too use a windows operating system doesn't mean I am. Also you're forgetting that majority > Minority and Windows dominates the market.

  • @sod16 Hmm... your far more dumb than I would of hoped. "Your right" why would you??

  • @icoopers Says the guy who thinks iMacs are better spec for spec compared to a custom built watercooled PC that cost LESS then any Apple product.

  • @sod16 the 2GB ram works like a 16GB

  • @gamemannv Lol, you're a fucking idiot. Just shut the fuck up.

  • @sod16 ok maby not like 16GB of ram but it does work better than it is

  • @gamemannv Thats not how RAM works.

  • The most beautiful and efficient notebook on earth so far.

  • @dwighthojon spamm

  • iMitchellHD

    look at the date you fag.

  • i love my macbook air, coz its so easy to turn on and access everything but needs more memory

  • This mac is not made for games, so stop talking about them you idiots.

  • @Tadixlife its not made for games but it works good for gaming

  • Your butt-hurt excuse for this P.O.S. not having a cd/dvd drive? Come to think of it the make is not made for anything... it can't even run half the software a P.C. can.

  • @Tadixlife I saw videos of people playing team fortress 2 and portal 2 on these things

  • @Tadixlife no need to shout you loser.

  • @tusas66lt Games on an mac? Haha that was pretty funny

  • All of you who are fighting about this computer forget two important things about it:

    - it was designed as ultraportable, so it's much closer to being a netbook than an actual desktop replacement, so treat it accordingly.

    - please, for the love of god, stop comparing it with products that are brand new! It is almost three years old! How did you expect it to hold up against brand new lenovos or HPs?

  • @ricaboo28 this models not 3 years old lol

  • It all depends on what you're using the computer for. Gamers should choose pc for it's customization, artists or media workers should choose Mac for it's wide variety of insanely innovative applications.

  • Does it have a big memory ?

  • nice pincers!

  • Where are the air vents? please reply!

  • god this thing is terrible. buying this is like having a dick but getting your balls chopped off

  • @gamemannv wtf just shut up whiner!!!!!!!

  • My own mom has fallen for this "everything has come down to this" crap. Instead of listening to me, my dad, or my brother of which three tech savvy minds are present, she is angered by our attempts to convince her that there are laptops way better for cheaper. She shuts down all conversations we attempt to politely start. Now she plans to spend upwards of 1,500 dollars on her Air. You could get an INSANELY powerful desktop or a REALLY good laptop for that price!

  • @ManiacMaurer When you buy a Mac, you aren't buying for the specs. You are buying for software, ease of use, and the enclosure of the mac

    .

  • @PenguInspiration That's what I don't get. Why would you buy a computer for anything BUT the specs? That's what makes the computer, and it's not like a Microsoft OS is hard to operate. Both are relatively simple. Macintosh software can be obtained on a PC with not much struggle. Keynote, for example, is a five dollar purchase. Additionally, "boot-camps" are available, and made relatively simple for those who absolutely need the other OS. Videos can be found on YouTube, making the process easy.

  • @ManiacMaurer I have to agree that specs make up more of the computer than how it looks. Apple quality of their own proprietary hardware just seems to be different. It's not entirely worth the extra price, but it's worth a little extra.

  • @ManiacMaurer You just don't get it don't ya...

  • I hate the mac book air with such a fucking passion. Apple in general has disappointed me and angered me. Instead of doing research and getting the facts, people buy into the "Apple is so cool" bullshit. Like, oh it's so magical because it's small and clean looking, so now it's worth paying 700 dollars more than I should! Partially, it's people just not knowing what the specs mean, and their ignorance towards the FACT that there are better computers for cheaper. Ignorance should NOT be bliss!

  • Anything I should be aware of with this comp I'm getting the base line model with 4 gb of ram and it's my first computer

  • view full review at techzeta.com

  • ive got this and a dell inspiron 15r and a acer 5920g

  • i suck at school and im 14 but if i get grades higher than 85 i might get this :D

  • @troidberg It's cool, but when I was 12 I got the new MacBook (regular one), but it was the cheapest one they had at the time. It was the unibody with the multi-touch and that kind of technology, and the air was like $1499. Now you can get the Air for cheaper. But I would recommend the MacBook Pro 13". MUCH better performance, more solid, basic features (ports and disc drive). But whatever. Good luck getting your grades up ^_^

  • @troidberg you are definately not asian. my parents would kill me if i got an 85

  • @dunnystuff lmfao I get A's, B's, C's, and every 2-3 years a D. Never got in trouble.

  • @troidberg when I was 14 my grades were 90+

    my parents bought me a samsung C160 :(

    u damn lucky dude

  • If I install a game on a cd to my MacBook air with a external drive, will I have to have the external drive with the disk in everytime I want to play the game?

  • @jethrocomp

    Good luck playing a game on a macbook air.

    1.4 ghz CPU and 2gb of RAM.

    Enjoy 5 fps.

  • @SeventhSandwich what laptop would be a good for gaming no more than $1200

  • @jcheach

    Toshiba Qosmia, 999$ with a quad core processor and a video card with 1GB of dedicated VRAM and 4gb of DDR3 triple channel RAM.

  • @jcheach dell alienware 11x or 14x...but i think the 14x is a little more than 1200

  • @gamemannv I was wondering about that? How much better is the Alienware com[ared to the Macbook air for gaming?

  • @blackhawk438 i kinda think its the same...but i would get the macbook cos if you look on gaming vids on it it works perfect...plus its really hard to get a virus on a mac and its a lot cooler looking and lighter...im on the apple side cos i never had problems with them and if you would rather have windows then u can download it on the mac-my friend did it... the last reason i think the macbook air is better is cos there built strong...so over all i think the macbook is almost twice as good

  • @gamemannv the only thing i think is better with the alienware is you get a bigger hard drive...but you can always buy other things to get more space

  • @gamemannv Maybe...its just alienware is the like TOP in laptop gaming. Rated higher than to macbook-pro

  • @blackhawk438 Funny thing. i ordered my Mac Air like a week ago and it comes here in like 2 days...

    already got a Alienware M17x so i could make a video about that. but it is to be honist kind of a question because mac's arent made for gaming.

    it is possible to play on them but they arent made for it so do not expect to be able to play some games maxed out which the Alienware would be easy to do.

    1 negative point of the alienware... it sounds like a leafblower and its getting really hot.

  • @SeventhSandwich Im sorry but the m11x has 2gb ram, 1.4ghz processor and is classed as one of the best prtable gaming laptops available. Granted it has a better GPU but the mac can play a few good games at a lower res and graphic setting. Do your research!

  • @MrEtwone

    I own a Macbook 2008 model with superior hardware then the Macbook Air and it cannot run WoW (which is one of the least hardware-heavy games available) over 20 fps.

    The operating system it self sucks at playing games.

    The GPU makes the biggest difference because almost any processor can handle any game, the GPU is what really gives the fps boosts.

  • @MrEtwone

    On another note, all Alienware computers are overpriced and I'd hate to buy one.

    For a bit more, I could custom build a laptop using a barebone laptop case and create something with far more power.

  • @SeventhSandwich It is more capable. Maybe you are just used to having windows bog down your gaming! bcuz it runs crysis, the sims 3, nfs carbon, COD 4, COD MW. so what was that whole 5fps thing again?

  • @JoelB3783

    I know for a fact that is impossible.

    proof or it didn't happen, macfag

  • @SeventhSandwich /watch?v=s3jXkWDS4q0 Now what was that? You are a dumbshit!

  • @JoelB3783

    Crisis is three years old and that computer is running it on low settings.

    lol.

  • @SeventhSandwich So it jumps from "Prove it!!!" to "Oh well that game is 3 years old..." lol u don't like macs because you can't afford one. This is a damn impressive machine! And most PC's Can NOT play that game.

  • @JoelB3783

    I have 2 mac machines thank you very much.

    And as for Crysis, because the Macbook Air video you were showing me was running it on low settings, I'm going to compare the same way. A potato could run Crysis at those settings. I'm not very impressed with games that look that horrible. Also, for the same cost as your overpriced Macbook Air, I could get a Toshiba Qosmia that actually has an appropriate amount of USB ports.

  • @JoelB3783

    Not to mention the fact that it has a Nvidia 320M chipset which is integrated(shit, if you know anything about computer hardware), and can only run on a notebook using a core 2 duo processor which is quite outdated in the modern world. The benchmarks for it for CoD black ops is around 40 on Low, 28, on Med, and 4 on high. Add that to the fact Mac OS X's OpenGL support is fucking awful, you'll get about half those numbers.

  • @JoelB3783

    Then again, I wouldn't expect you to know anything about this because you, like most people who actually like Apple computers, buy them because they are shiny and thin and don't have sharp edges.

  • @SeventhSandwich Do are you kidding o_O You gotta be shitting me. $1049 for a crappy ass 1.4ghz cpu+2gb ram o-o. I could EASILY build a PC with $1000 with 8GB ram+3.2GHz.

    And we come the conclusion.

    PC>Mac :) EASILY.

  • @itzMehPreet PS: I build my current PC with 16GB ram+3.46GHz (overclocked to 4GHz) for $1900 (shipping any everything :P

  • @itzMehPreet

    *fistbump*

  • @itzMehPreet i could easily buy a computer with better spec than the MBA. look at the competition for the MBA and youll see that this is the strongest ultraportable on the market. the only thing that comes close is the series 9 which id hope is better since its 6 months newer and expensive with crap quality. I'm sure theres a computer nerd that built a better computer than yours for less, theres none that can do that for the MBA making it a super powerful computer

  • @WarpeaceWar6 I was saying you could. Mine is a lot more powerful. I paid $1300 and it has 16gigs of ram+4.6Ghz (overclocked). I could easily do 5ghz but it would be very unstable. And Macs overall barely give the owner customization. I used to have a Mac and it sucked. It cost me $2200 for everything and it barely was worth the price.

  • @SeventhSandwich /watch?v=2M-nJfd-jls research before you talk

  • @SeventhSandwich its a working pc not a gaming youre dump ass

  • @frette7

    lol.

  • @SeventhSandwich Good luck doing everything else on a PC LOL! :)

  • @icoopers

    You're a retard who understands nothing.

    Go learn about basic computer hardware and how an operating system works and then we'll talk.

  • @SeventhSandwich Oh!! I did! That's why I switch to Mac. And I'm loooooooooving it. :)

  • @icoopers

    You make me sick.

  • @SeventhSandwich Aww... :( so cute... Thanks.

  • one usb drive, no cd drive, no ethernet port. if you pay extra for the (optional) cd drive then your only usb drive is used up. unless you pay extra for a usb hub too.

  • how are you running mac on the small one?

  • Can this computer run OS 7.5.5?

  • do you think 64GB is good enough for an average highschool/college student?

  • @blumonkey238 Definitely not if you want to put music and movies on it.

  • @willmck12

    aah.. i see. thanks for the response!

  • send me your email and i'll send u an invite and then redeem your mac book air from lockerz. i get u points

  • I have order this computer. Can't wait!!!!!!

  • Now*

  • @MrEverySongILike Yes, I see that know. I guess I was a bit hasty in my commenting.

  • could i connect the magic mouse to this?

  • You said this was running the "latest OS which is Leopard" which is not correct. And you called this laptop a MacBook Pro at: 1:40... that's when I stopped watching... Sloppy review.

  • As long as it has an 'array of useful gadgets'...

  • The laptop looks like a freaken piece of paper damn

  • @lEmanx555lOZU

    Considering its uses, it may as well be. Very few people I know in the IT industry find anything but the appearance to be remarkable.

  • Too far away for your review.

  • the problem is that there is not many ports like usb port and more, one usb port? u got to be kidding with me? anyway nice
