mba forum

Apple.com has launched a support page for the MacBook Air. There’s a usage guide (PDF), a guided tour and a forum. The forum has been pretty busy even with MBA still on pre-order status. There are currently 2,352 messages and 297 topic threads. Pretty amazing for something that hasn’t reached consumer hands yet. This is logical for a notebook that is so different from all others before it. A smart user will need to know everything he possibly can before shelling out $1799 for a notebook with no optical drive and a slow-poke hard disk. You learn, for example, that the MacBook Air speakers are located below the keyboard. Wow! One revelation that warrants a separate post is the time it takes to recharge the MBA battery to full capacity… 8.5 hours! My God!
