Refurb 11.6 inch MacBook Air now selling for $849

Brad Linder — Sat, 25 Dec 2010 15:08:03 +0000

Apple still has no plans to offer a netbook, if you define a netbook as a low cost ultraportable computer. But Apple recently released an 11.6 inch version of the MacBook Air, which at $999 and up is relatively cheap for an Apple laptop. And now the company is offering refurbished models for $849, making the company's smallest and lightest...

MacBook Air reviewed

Brad Linder — Sat, 23 Oct 2010 13:22:29 +0000

With a starting price of $999, it's hard to call the new MacBook Air a netbook... if your definition of netbook is a small, cheap computer. But as far as Apple laptops come, the MacBook Air is probably the closest we're ever going to get to a netbook. It's smaller and lighter than a typical Apple laptop, and reasonably priced....

Apple launches new MacBook Air ultraportable laptop

Brad Linder — Wed, 20 Oct 2010 18:27:20 +0000

Apple has long stated that it has no plans to offer a netbook, instead suggesting that the iPhone or the iPad served the same niche as Windows netbooks. But the truth is, before the first consumer netbooks launched, Apple already had a very netbook-like product: The MacBook Air. It's thinner, lighter, and generally smaller than a typical Mac laptop. It...

MacBook Air becomes a MacBook Keyboard… or something

Brad Linder — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 21:54:07 +0000

Like the idea of stuffing a computer into a keyboard, but underwhelmed by the Intel Atom processor and other netbook parts in the Asus Eee Keyboard? If you're the adventurous sort you might want to follow in the footsteps of one brave hacker who is in the process of ripping apart a MacBook Air and stuffing its guts -- plus...

Jetway EM130 looks like a MacBook, works like a netbook

Brad Linder — Mon, 10 May 2010 19:32:54 +0000

You'd be forgiven for mistaking the Jetway EM130 for a MacBook. Cosmetically, it looks an awful lot like a 13 inch MacBook. But on the inside, this 13.3 inch notebook is all netbook -- albeit one with relatively powerful netbook components. The Jetway EM130 has a 1366 x 768 pixel HD display, NVIDIA ION graphics, and a dual core Intel...

MacBook Pro clone with NVIDIA ION graphics, dual core Atom chip

Brad Linder — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 20:50:39 +0000

You don't see full sized laptops with Intel Atom processors very often. But this MacBook Pro clone from China is an interesting exception to the rule. It sports a 14.1 inch display and a case that looks an awful lot like a MacBook Pro case including the large touchpad with integrated buttons. But while the MacBook Pro is available with...

Another Apple netbook rumor rears its ugly head

Brad Linder — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 20:12:13 +0000

With MacWorld just a few weeks away, folks are coming out of the woodwork with predictions that Apple will launch a netbook or something very much like it in January. This week's prediction comes from Technology Business Research analyst Ezra Gottheil. He thinks Apple will release a machine that looks like a netbook (or maybe a tablet-style UMPC), but works...

Is the Apple “Brick” a netbook? No.

Brad Linder — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 14:36:52 +0000

Word on the street is that Apple is about to come out with something new. No surprise there. Apple's always coming out with something new. But according to the rumor mill, this new model could represent the fruits of a new manufacturing process called "brick" that will make it easy for Apple to sell attractive laptop cases at a lower...

Will Apple build a netbook, and what would it look like?

Brad Linder — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 18:27:23 +0000

Over the past year almost every major notebook manufacturer has announced or released a netbook. Acer, Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, LG, MSI, Samsung, and Toshiba, just to name a few. But one name that's been noticably absent from the list is Apple. To date, the iPod and computer maker (in that order), has yet to announce a low cost ultraportable...
