Three Weeks Hands-on with Apple MacBook Air: on planes, in hotels, coffee shops and at home

We have heard so many stories about the Apple MacBook Air from the very first day that we reported about the new Mac Air in the minutes after it was first launched. Today we have seen the best hands-on yet with this ultra thin laptop, Dan Frakes over at Mac World has spent three weeks with their review unit and this was more specifically during a vacation with his family and for use at home.

Dan Frakes went from seeing the Macbook Air as a laptop with a loss of “features compared to the other offerings in Apple’s laptop line: an optical drive, a number of ports and expansion options, a removable battery, and processing power” and then after his three weeks hands-on his family’s new MacBook Air arrived last week.

During his time with the Macbook Air it went everywhere with him, this included two six-hour plane flights, a week’s vacation in Hawaii, around his home, on the patio, in coffee shops, on tables and desks, in a hotel and much more for a family computer surfing the Web and for work.

At one point he even misplaced the Air under a stack of papers, read Dan Frakes full review after his 3 weeks with the Macbook Air.
