A new Air finally? That will be the day!
- spyspy 10y agoI imagine the Airs being eaten by the new MacBook.
- Keyframe 10y agoLet's see what they bring to the table with a possible new Air. If they let down, it's a possibility where Macbook will continue on and Airs rest in piece.
- rtpg 10y agoJust an anecdote but none of the college kids I see get a MacBook , but still opt for the Air, or pay the $100 more to get a pro. USB ports and all that.
- scarlac 10y agoI see this as well. Students particularly. The Air got popular when the price dropped. Initially, everyone also criticized it for being too expensive and underpowered. Look at this thread and tell me it doesn't sound like they're talking about the new Macbook: http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/why-is-the-macbook-air-so-expensive.856233/ http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/why-is-the-macbook-air-s... My speculation: No upgrade for the Air but I think they'll announce a new lower price for the new Macbook as well as somewhat upgraded internals. They may lower the Air price a bit and keep it around or perhaps kill it outright. Everything about the Macbook seems like it's made to replace the Air apart from the price.
- TazeTSchnitzel 10y agoI don't think Apple can drop the Air until the MacBook is at the same price point.
