Craig's Macbook Air

I've wanted to try an Apple ever since I got my iPhone and had such a great experience with it. My Vaio is creeping up on 4 years old so it was time to upgrade for a new work laptop. The Macbook and Macbook Pro are too big for me as I'm on the go pretty much everyday of the year. So after reading up on the Air, it seems that it will be more than capable of accomplishing what I need it to.

I'll write more on it as I go...and be nice to me damnit! I just love technology. I'm still sporting the uber-PC tower/gaming system and a few other PC laptops. So keep any and all trolling comments to yourself (or I will be forced to have Teck sick his aliens on you).



The bag...boring, I know.



The loot from within the bag:
  • Macbook Air
  • Macbook Air USB Superdrive
  • 250GB Western Digital USB Powered Harddrive
  • AT&T USB 3G Broadband Card (replacing my old PCMCIA version...btw, ATT gave this to me for free w/o any contract extension)
  • Logitech VX Nano Cordless Laser Mouse

eees nice!

Granted, while I enjoy having a pc for gaming, I do all of my schoolwork/work on a macbook. Nice little machines, even if the are a bit overpriced. Let's get a good review!!

I would probably recommend a small powered USB hub as well, since you can't plug in your HD and mouse at the same time.

oh and by the way, that Western Digital external was only $119 at Best Buy...they're on sale for a few days. That's a great price if anyone is in the market
