Well, I happened to be in San Francisco (back from other trips) during the Macworld Expo week. I decided to buy a 45-dollar ticket to go inside and get the chance to see the new Macbook Air.
The Macbook Air is really incredible! When I held it in my hands, I got the feeling that I was holding a piece of paper. It is light and amazingly thin! “Way to go Apple, I want one”, I thought.
However, the one I tried out at the Expo seemed to take such a long time to wake up from the sleep mode. I closed it and opened it and I had to press different keys so that it would wake up again. After it came back, it was still processing information and I had to wait some more. The lady who was displaying the Macbook Air said: “I think we have to reboot it”. She rebooted it and it started working again. Now, I am thinking twice before getting one. I do want one, but I might wait some more. Is that a problem with all Macbook Air computers? Or was it a random problem? Should I wait for an update?
I remember when the Macbook/Macbook Pro were released. Some of the computers were presenting random shut downs and people started complaining. I waited for almost a year before buying my macbook.
The Macbook Air is definitely amazing! But when should I get one? Or should I even bother getting one at all? I would like to hear the opinion of the Mactropolis readers… What do YOU think about it?
