I'm waiting for a MacBoor Air with an ARM processor and iPad-like battery life. Other than that aspect, the 11" laptop is the best computer I've ever had.
(and yes, I run Ubuntu on it instead of OS X)
- LiveTheDream 16y agoI've heard of this quite a few times now, people running Ubuntu on their MacBook Airs.
- yesbabyyes 16y agoI run Ubuntu on my 13", it's a great Linux machine. It was really tough to install without a CD drive, but finally I made it. Everything works, but waking from sleep and reconnecting the wifi takes ages compared to OS X. That said, I too would love to be able to work on a tablet. Basically all I need is vim and Chrome. What I'm thinking is connecting the iPad to a bigger screen and using the pad as a keyboard, but nah it doesn't seem realistic.
- dr_ 16y agoThat's interesting. I have the 11" laptop as well. When I first got it, I thought it was too small, but it's so perfectly designed that I can be quite productive on it and don't need anything much larger. The same can't be said for other designers of 11" laptops as yet. You really need a great trackpad to work with, because you do have to zoom in at times, and a great quality screen as well. The SSD helps tons as well. The MBA is the best designed 11" I've come across.
