Back in October 2010, Apple upgraded the features of the Macbook Air and suddenly I was confronted with the huge temptation of the fast responsive ultraportable version of my old 2007 MacBook.
The biggest change was the Solid State Drives. The beautiful part is they have no moving parts.
I’ve been doing lots of barefoot running on and off over the last couple years. Imagine running around all the time with an ultraportable laptop. It would be great to be able to run to a coffee store, whip out the macbook air, and get to work.
This would be perfect for a nomad that travels the world and lives out of 1 backpack. With an ultraportable laptop that has SSD, he could run any time he wanted.
