blu ray on macs is true too? :O lets see

Yep, Air is an ultrathin notebook. Now, what else.

"MacBook Air is 0.16" to 0.76". The thickest part of the MacBook Air is thinner than the thinnest part of the Sony. It fits inside a envelope"

Jesus.

The flimsy display on the TiBook sucked ass, and I expect this to be just as bad in that department. But the fact that it exists is kind of awesome. Doubt I'd buy one because if I had a laptop that small I'd most definitely need a desktop at home.

I had to read that a couple times to get that they're saying the Sony is .76" and the Macbook Air is .16". Pretty amazing stuff.

They're not, actually. The Vaio is .8"-1.2" while the MacBook Air tops out at .76" thick. Crazy.

Also, I figured no optical drive, but it's still disappointing to me that they couldn't find some seemingly physically impossible way to get one in there.
