I just had a few minutes to check out the video about the Apple MacBook Air. I WANT it! I want it bad.
I have been a PC user up until now but am seriously considering converting just because the Air is so cool.
Super Sleek
Aside from the incredible thinness (0.16 to 0.76 inch- about the size of your index finger) and light weight ( just 3 lbs!) it also offers the advantages of a full size notebook. Like a full size key board that is back lit for ease of use in low light situations such as conference rooms and airplanes.

Impressive Display
The glossy 13.3-inch,
widescreen LED backlit display is the same viewable size as
the screen on MacBook. The 1280-by-800 resolution gives you vibrant
images and rich colors at full brightness.
Built In Camera
Unlike most other ultraportable notebooks, MacBook Air includes a
built-in camera they refer to as iSite. The iSight camera along with iChat software makes video chatting
easy anywhere there’s a wireless network.

Slim Battery
This impressively slim battery does not compromise power. It is said to provide 5 hours of wireless activity.
Touchpad Capabilities
Last but not least is the feature that I loved most. The oversized trackpad with multi-touch technology.
This design is taken from the gesture based commands of the iPhone and Ipod. You can pinch, swipe,
or rotate to zoom in on text, advance through a photo album, or adjust
an image. It will recognize the difference between two finger commands and three finger commands.
The Dilemma…I know nothing about operating a Mac. I am a self taught PC user (other than the DOS class in high school many moons ago) and would not consider myself highly techy. But this machine is so sexy I feel like I must have it. But I am trepidatious. Is the conversion too hard to tackle for an ole gal like me? You know what they say about teaching old dogs new tricks. Will I feel lost and therefore less productive? I certainly dont have time to be less productive. These are the questions that I ask myself.
Of course the Apple Store offers free tutoring and classes that I can take, but again thats just more time invested that could be spent elsewhere. So what do I do??? I ask you Shak-ers that are Mac converts; will I regret it? Let me know what you all think so I can make the right decision.
I’ll eagerly await your vote…To Mac or not to Mac, that is the question.
