Gadgets Blog » Apple MacBook Air is the Thinnest Notebook Around

Next week consumers will be able to get their hands on something that appears to be no thicker than a stack of paper, and by the looks of it, just as easy to crush.

But regardless, I’m sure people will be flocking to computer stores and Best Buys everywhere to pick up the new Apple MacBook Air.

Steve Jobs has really outdone himself with this invention. We’ve all seen for years that laptops are getting thinner and lighter, but this thing is insane. This laptop measures in at three-quarters of an inch at its thickets point and has a 13.3″ screen and a full-size keyboard. Now if you’re curious about how much this thing weighs, it comes in at only THREE POUNDS. In addition to the aluminum exterior, it also has some new software features such as fingertip gestures for the touch pad like Apple included on their iPhone.

And the price?

Next week consumers will be forking out $1,800 for the 80 GB hard drive and 2 GB of memory and for the faster, 64-gigabyte and speedier version costs a staggering $3,100.
