Video of the Macbook Air in Action

posted Wed 20 Feb 08

If you've been to Apple's site at all lately, you've probably seen that used car salesman guy showing you the guided tour of the Macbook Air. The problem is you don't really get to see too much of it, and I like third party videos because you never really know of touch-ups have been done to gloss over things.

As such, take a look at this video from the folks at Pomcast (an Apple podcast) who take some initial looks at the Air. The video is shot from inside what looks like an Apple store:

 

Hopefully we'll start seeing more of these kinds of videos so that people who don't actually have one can get some more, realistic information about the Air. In case you missed my previous blog entry on the Air, I strongly recommend you head down to an Apple store and kick the tires on this thing as you can't really get a feel for the device from videos or even heresay.

Actually, I had no trouble justifying it. The 17" Macbook Pro is a huge beast to whip out on a train and the 13.3" Macbook Air is the absolute perfect second computer for me. I have the huge powerhouse MBP for my desktop at home, and I will soon have the MBA for use on planes, when on the road, and on the train. The only sad part is that it won't be here in time for my trip to Ireland for the IWTC. It would've been awesome doing iPhone web app demos on the Air :)
