Confirmation of MacBook Air?

When Adium recently released their statistics about who uses their software, some eagle-eyed people noticed something strange. Down, near the bottom, under "Model" there was one user who was using a "MacBookAir." Hmm... This could be a person that edited their model name, or it could be real. Don't know why someone with an experimental laptop that isn't released to the public would be using Adium though...maybe to tell his friends. The recently spotted banners at Macworld, "There's something in the air," would basically prove the name to be true. What do you think it is, or does it even exist? Tell us in this thread.

The name isn't very Apple. MacBook Air? I mean c'mon now. This is like when people were calling the supposed new Xserves, Xserve Ultra. I think they'll change the name. Do I think there will be a MacBook Nano/Slim, of {censored} course. But I doubt it's gonna have a surname of Air.

 

Seriously. Mac Book Air? I don't think Apple will follow Nike and make laptops for... uh...

basketball players.

hello name is <snipped>. i work inside apple cupertino campus not for apple, work for intel. my job is to help apple with wimax made from intel. i am here to tell us that there is a macbook air. it is not name of macbook air. we who work with intel do not know its name. i have seen it before even though i do not the name of it. it is aluminum looking like imac. it folds like macbook, but is very small and thin. from what i see it is 11 inch screen maybe? it has a real keyboard, but it looks like the flat keyboard on the mac desktops its color is white. i do not see dvd-cd drive or video outside ports. I see many usbs ports and one firewires ports. macrumor website also is wrong because i did see ethernet on the machine. engineer of apple explain to me very good why they make this. he tell me 'macbook and macbook of pro are not like book they are like folder. this is like book, it is small and carry easy.' i help make intel apple work together with wimax tech. it also has the wireless n and ethernet like i said. it had docks like ipod dock and battery is very strongman. it last for a long time. it has intel processor and video, but low voltage. of course it has leopard on it but in menubar there is special utility tool that help use tiny features. this is make computer for normal person who likes internet email and music and movies. it is perfect for car airplane and travels like subway.

 

you will see the machine at macworld this week. i do not know how when apple started making it. my intel wimax group gets involved at november last year.

 

i am your friend of hackintosh and told you what i know. AppleSmartFriend.

I edited your name out. It's not smart to tell your name if you are working on a secret project inside Apple, when we know that Apple Legal browses these boards. You can put it back if you like. Cheers. :)

I imagine just if Apple DOES NOT introduce any light laptop LOL

I mean, there have been rumors through the entire year, and now many of them are just fitting altogether... But anything can happen.

Haha. So THAT'S what the poster meant!

 

There's something in the air.....an overly-priced, yet fairly decent, but still missing features that will get hacked into it within a month of release, MacPlane. Comes with it's own version of OS X!
