Actually, it’s here now. Yesterday, Apple announced the release of their new and improved MacBooks. So go ahead, kids, type so hard you break your old MacBook Air (!!!!)—it’s a thing of the past anyway.
Things to look forward to on your new computer? A precision aluminum unibody enclosure, a Itarthin 15-in LED backlit display, and high performance NVIDIA graphics. Exciting, right?
The most lauded feature seems to be the buttonless, glass track pad. Gizmodo raved that its finish is “just right, providing that perfect balance of tactile resistance.” No clicking necessary here—a special tapping system has replaced the buttons. (Correct me if I am wrong, but hasn’t this always been an option on Macs?)
White and Black MacBooks are now an antiquated idea. While I can’t be certain what any of these upgrades mean, I can at least assure you that you will look cooler with your Kanye approved, shiny glass and aluminum MacBook.

Also, call me old fashion, but I LIKE clicking on the mouse button, so having that option is definitely important to me. As silly as it sounds, i feel like it gives me a sense of control… so my fingers are not like randomly clicking on links that I didn’t mean to click on.
when i saw this I STARTED TYPING SO HARD ON MY MACBOOK AIR THAT I BROKE THEY KEYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! because i should have waited for this one.

In fact, the whole trackpad is a button. You can tap it (like the old macs), or you can press it to click. I’m using one right now
WANT WANT WANT.












My mac laptop is so old that it doesn’t have the snazzy magnetic for it’s charger. I love it though, it still works!
