If you want all your computing expectations fulfilled then look no further than the Apple MacBook Air. The new Apple MacBook Air MC969B/A 11.6" Laptop is faster, thinner and lighter than previous generations of MacBook.

Speed

Powered by a dual-core Intel® i5TM processor the Apple MacBook Air is 2.5 times faster than before and a start-up time from cold of just 14 seconds means you have instant desktop access! Containing a 128GB SSD flash storage instead of a regular hard drive, the Apple MacBook Air is reliable, durable and quieter than before. The flash memory is placed directly on to the MacBook's logic board, meaning it takes up 90% less space and less power, enhancing mobility, contributing towards the MacBook being incredibly thin and light.

Longer Battery Life

Thanks to the brilliant flash storage, the Apple MC969B/A MacBook Air 11.6" Laptop is consequently more efficient than ever when it comes to battery life. With a superb 5 hours of battery life, you can put your MacBook to sleep and reopen it up to a month later with battery still remaining.

Thunderbolt

Thunderbolt is two times faster than USB 3.0 with spectacular 10Gbps transfer rates. Thunderbolt is based on DisplayPort technology and is the video standard for high-resolution screens as any Mini DisplayPort display plugs right into the Thunderbolt port. Thunderbolt allows you to connect a DisplayPort, DVI, HDMI, or VGA monitor using an existing adapter equalling amazing results.

Be Connected

The Macbook Air features excellent WiFi 802.11n technology, as it allows you to stay connected as you move from room to room, downloading apps and accessing information. Fantastic Bluetooth 4.0 means faster transfer rates and interaction between devices, offering more convenience.

Interface

MacBook Air MC969B/A 11.6" Laptop features a spacious trackpad which itself is one button, and is contained on an all-glass surface allowing you superb interaction with gestures including rubber-band scrolling, page and image zoom and full-screen swiping. OS X Lion offers so much with full screen apps through the Launchpad desktop, AirDrop which allows you to share files wirelessly without the need for WiFi, and Version, which takes screenshots of your documents, showing you different versions of the document as it is has progressed.

Backlit Keyboard

The Apple MacBook Air features a gorgeous, aesthetically pleasing keyboard that is backlit and is ideal for typing comfortably even in low-light conditions as a built-in sensor detects the lighting and adjusts accordingly.

FaceTime Connection

Stay connected with FaceTime, the intelligent, vibrant camera that comes with the Apple MacBook Air. FaceTime supports full WGXA resolution on your MacBook resulting in colourful, superb quality.

With its stunning interface, visual excellence and spectacular technology, the MacBook Air MC969B/A 11.6" Laptop has it all.
