I don't remember it being that chunky, but it's been about 5,000 years. It's funny what we get used to or take for granted or "always been". I remember all the praise and talk it got for being so "sleek and thin" at the time. It looks like a dictionary!

I keep looking at shots of the new Air...that's a really nice-looking notebook.

Yeah, that's the visual I'm getting. Not yellow-y gold. More metallic khaki or something. Yeah, sand.

I see it's $400 to go to the 24GB. That's almost doable/sensible, even for my cheap ass.

At this point, 16GB seems like the absolute bare minimum, but to go to that nice middle ground between 16 and 32 is a nice, more affordable option.

Nothing to dislike in these new Airs.
