Apple's MacBook Air - still the world's slimmest laptop; VoodooPC's Envy isn't shipping yet - just got cheaper. Well, sort of. Apple's knocked £300/$500 off the price of the solid-state drive model.Launched at £2028/$3098, the Air with the 64GB SSD now costs £1719/$2598, undoubtedly thanks to tumbling Flash memory prices. The sub-notebook's other specs remain the same.

That must be Apple's code for "weak sales".
What I really want is a 13" Macbook Pro. And preferably in black or something better than the very outdated MBP look they currently have.
I'm getting more and more tempted to replace the Macbook with something non-Apple, like a Dell XPS.
Couldn't be happier with my new one and a fraction of the price of an Apple for a better spec ^_^
Not to mention that all of the slimmest PC's have more than 1 USB port.
The design of Macbook AIR is nice, but i won't pay that for any design, i prefer performance over looks, specially when it comes to notebooks because they are not cheap to replace too often.

Note to Windows and OSX users: Your Operating System is overpriced.
Same drivel, just applied to the software side, instead of only hardware.
And Apple trying to get rid of it.

So total power consumption for specific period is much higher than HDDs have.
