The studies also showed that the USB version of the Iomega Zip Drive was beginning to dominate the portable storage market. To completely change the way people bought their computer made sense after hearing the whole story.

MacBook Air

First impressions when using the MacBook Air is that it is visually small.  It’s about 1/3 the thickness of a regular MacBook.  It is .16 inches at its smallest and .76 inches at the hinge.  After it is closed, the laptop is light but doesn’t feel like it’s made of cheap material, it feels like its definitely a Mac that could be used daily.  The hinge mechanism is tight and should provide trouble free opening and closing.  I see why Apple included a glass screen cover as it keeps the screen from twisting when closing or opening it from either corner.
