On Wednesday October 20th, on the Apple campus in Cupertino, California, Steve Jobs introduced 2 amazing new products. The first being a refresh of the 2 year old Macbook Air. The newest model trumps the first generation by using less power, instant-on capabilities, and a new type of storage. The new thin notebook type computer introduced to take on the netbook, the Macbook air is less than an Inch thick and has a 7 hour battery with a 30 day standby time. The new computer has a cheaper price point than it's predecessor and uses flash storage to use less space and gives the user instant on capabilities, meaning once they open the screen, they do not have to wait for the laptop to load its software. Starting at $999 for the 11'' it is $300 less than the previous model. Steve Jobs emphasized that the Macbook Air is for professionals who love the form function of the iPad, but need a full keyboard to make their life easier. Available now at the Apple Store
