If you are after a thin laptop then you can't get much thinner than the Apple Macbook Air. It's about the size of a piece of paper (well maybe not quite). This hot laptop is Apple's entry into the ultraportable laptop market. They have entered with a bang as the Macbook Air is really something to talk about.

Take one look at the Macbook Air and you'll fall in love it is. The sleek design immediately draws your attention. Of course there are lighter laptops but they are not as light as the Air.

It's more a fashion item more than anything. If you have one of these you certainly dont want to keep it to yourself. The aluminium casing reassures you that the build quality has not been sacrificed for the size.

The design is fantastic but the power of the laptop is not as good as some others. The Macbook Air is definitely not the fastest of laptops on the market. The Macbook Air is powerful enough to be used for basic processes but you may not want to replace your desktop with it.

The laptop comes with an LED backlit display which makes sure that the batteries last longer than if it had a normal LCD display. The screen produces rich colours so is not like some of the cheap screens you can get on laptops.

The Macbook has a full keyboard which is a surprise for an ultraportable laptop. This makes typing a joy though of course it is still not as good as a separate keyboard.

Connectivity may be a problem with the Macbook Air. It doesn't come with a CD drive meaning you won't be able to put your favourite CDs onto your harddrive. Maybe this is so you'll be pursuaded to download all your music from iTunes!

The Macbook Air is a must have. It's sleek design is to die for. The only bad thing about it is the price. It costs around a grand to buy which means you'll have to save up for one! However, there is a way where you can get a Macbook Air for free. All you have to do is simply register for a DVD trial with Blockbuster or a similar service. Then invite a few friends to do the same. This marketing strategy has been covered by reputable news networks such as BBC, CNN and NBC.
