5 things that are as thick as the new MacBook Air

It’s 0.11 inches (2.79mm) thick at its thinnest part, and they whipped out the hard drives and are putting apps in it. The new MacBook Air unveiled by Steve Jobs last night is slim.

We found five things that are also 0.11 inches thick for the sake of helpful comparision.

  • they whipped out the hard drives and are putting apps in it. The new MacBook Air unveiled by Steve Jobs last night is slim.

  • the flat spaghetti pasta is supposed to be rolled out to a thickness of 2mm 

  • this is stupid, apple just made an incredibly thin front edge to the laptop and now everyone gets to go crazy over that ignoring the fact that at the thickest it is 1.7 cm which is still thin but within the range of other netbooks/laptops

  • That is ridiculously thin! What is the advantage of that though, I mean from a user perspective, knocking half an inch off of the thickness wont mean you can fit it into a bag you couldn’t have fit it into before. It will be lighter granted but laptops aren’t heavy anyway.

  • @LeanSpa: Macbook Air is a great, wonderful and nearly perfect product from Apply. I’m really impressed, but I agree with you. It’s not suitable for everyone.

  • Hehe ok, you can hardly find something as slim as the macbook but this shouldn’t be the reason to get one!
