New MacBook Airs: Faster, Lighter, Instant On, 30 Day Standby Power

Apple announces the new MacBooks. What would happen if a MacBook Air and an iPad had a baby?

The smaller Air won't have an SSD or an HDD. Instead, it's got an SSD card that a bit like a stick of RAM. Why's that important for you? Instant on. Because the Air relies on flash memory, the boot times are near zero. Other guts? Intel Core2Duo processors inside along with Nvidia GeForce 320M graphics. Apple's also done the right thing by adding an SD card reader and a second USB port.
