Domino Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 for gods sake don't let Mattx see this group....
GrumbleDook Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Not my cup of tea .. but an interesting move and shows they are still thinking differently.
Domino Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 for people with more money than sense it'd be an awesome portable.....
Rozzer Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 I can't see the Macbook air making any appearance in schools. Its just to over priced and no real need.
localzuk Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 From an ultra portable point of view, it is a good design. From a price point of view, it is ridiculously overpriced. If it was closer to it's US price then fine, but it isn't, so it is not worth it.
MkII Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 The look of the thing is amazing - screen size and weight just right. If they could just sort out the rest, then this would be a killer.
ThatBoringBloke Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 Woo Hoo! I'm now an ACSP (Apple Certified Support Professional)!
GrumbleDook Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Nice one Simon ... have a jar for me at the weekend.
mac_shinobi Posted March 29, 2008 Posted March 29, 2008 Think the mac book air could do with quite a few improvements from a slim line optical drive as some of the other sony slim line notebooks have and a few more usb ports wouldnt hurt and maybe one firewire 400 and one firewire 800 and an ethernet port. Also a replaceable battery as it seems a bit silly to have it enclosed inside. Personally I think ( and you could dis agree or agree with me on this ) a mac book would make more sense , at least you get the optical drive, it isnt huge or heavy to carry around and it has all the connectivity.
mac_shinobi Posted March 29, 2008 Posted March 29, 2008 mattx has probably got his own group setup for a windows only and I hate macs and they kill kittens group lol. No offence intended if he see's this lol.
Kitkatninja Posted April 7, 2008 Posted April 7, 2008 Congrats SGUK, that's one I'm aiming for after the MS exams
HodgeHi Posted May 26, 2008 Posted May 26, 2008 I like the idea of the macbook air as it forces you tochange the way you do things. It forces your way of thinking. If you can't store all your stuff on your machine then you can't lose it. If you have back to my mac installed then you can access it anywhere on the road as long as you have an internet connection available. I think it's just a little too early. Another year or so when everywhere has a wireless grid across the counties.
Technophobe Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Hello lads & lasses, I'm I allowed in the gang if I'm not strictly a tech. I have just started working for an ISP that specialises in education. I'm not very technically advanced. But if I promise not to try and sell you anything I'd like to just hang out and see if I can learn anything that may benefit me at work. What it is that you specifically want from an ISP? How you've been let down, Support. No names need be given. I think you get the gist. Promise I won't babble so much in future! Cheers guys.

garethEds Posted December 19, 2008 Posted December 19, 2008 Hi Guys, - Yes I am 90% moved over to my iMac which I purchased 5/6 months ago. I have to admit to not letting go of Office 2007 which runs in Parallels Desktop 4. At the risk of upsetting people, I do love Office 2007 for some reason.
IT_Master Posted June 10, 2009 Author Posted June 10, 2009 I dont see the need for someone to hate the Macs. I personally love both. But proudly saying....I hate the MacBook Air.
