I have a university mate with a Macbook Air, he claims it's the best thing since sliced bread, even though my Eee 1215N is better specced and much cheaper :lol:

Unfortunately Apple fanboys do not care about actual functionality and common sense, like replaceable batteries.

The x300 has probably been superseded by something even better.

Or perhaps Lenovo realised that normal people don't actually care how thin their laptop is.

Thinness is one of the reasons that the aforementioned Macbook Air user thinks his computer is better than mine :p

He claims OS X Lion is better as well, but a tablet interface on a computer doesn't really work...

Did he fail to mention the proper processor/1440x900 screen/fact its not made of plastic fantastic/ssd

By tablet features on an OS i take it you mean the gesture to bring up all your apps? Or the reverse scrolling (which im now very used to) or the full screen apps thing? If that's the case, then turn the features off or don't use them.

If you guys actually looked into this rather than just trolled you might see the MBA is not a bad product at all. Apple have shipped about half a mil of these things, you would be arrogant/stupid to think everyone that brought one didn't know wtf they were on about, including me for one. :rolleyes:

Three USB ports (including two USB 3.0), VGA and HDMI built-in, Ethernet, a card reader, upgradable RAM and a user replaceable battery. Yeah, the Macbook Air is better. :rolleyes:

I was thinking more the tiles onscreen: admittedly I don't yet have a strong view on this as I'm waiting for the Windows 8 beta.

Trolling is fun :p
