On Thursday, Apple did a rather surprising thing: it reduced the price of its MacBook Air from $3,098 to $2,598. Yes, your math is accurate, that’s $500.
If you have had your eyes on the higher-end Air (1.8GHz with a 64GB solid-state flash drive replacing the traditional ATA hard drive), this may very well be your chance to get one.
The other model, powered by Intel's 1.6 GHZ Core 2 Duo processor as standard, with an available 1.8GHZ upgrade, 2GB of RAM, battery life of 5 hours and an 80 GB hard drive, will continue to be priced at $1,799.
The MacBook Air laptop is less than 2 centimetres thick, features a backlit 13-inch (33-centimeter) screen, a full-size keyboard and a pad responsive to Apple's multi-touch control gestures. It weighs in at less than 1.5 kilograms. It has no built in CD drive, but does offer an external drive for an additional 99 dollars.
