(Jarred’s thoughts at the time: “It has an Apple logo on it, so of course you bought one!”) And then I returned it. It wasn’t really perfect: the base SKU with a 1.4GHz Core 2 Duo ULV CPU and 2GB of memory seemed painfully inadequate at the time, the 5 hour battery life wasn’t great (the 13” Air was rated at a much better 7 hours), and $999, though cheap by Apple notebook standards, was a lot to justify spending on roughly year-old specs. At 2.3lbs, it wasn’t even that much heavier and the $999 pricetag made it the least expensive mobile computer in Apple’s lineup. It was nearly as small as the iPad, but as a full notebook it was considerably more useful. When Apple launched the second generation MacBook Air in late 2010, I was definitely more interested in the 11” model.
