the issue is that the new MBA throughout its product range uses only solid

so a solid state machine starting from cold, i.e.. not in standby can much more

Apple is declaring the CDROM/DVD dead, or at least dying, very like it did with
the floppy drive back when the iMac first came out. Remember that? Remember how
we all laughed at it and thought, "Oh, no, the floppy drive. Gotta have one,
it's not going anywhere." Apple was ahead of the curve, and
Oh yeah forgot about the SS drives that would make sence.

but how would you restore from a usb drive?I thought you could only run voice
over from the cd or from a cd and install that way?

Nope. For a couple reasons:
1) Its default shutdown is just a mega huge standby at exceedingly low power,
so it doesn't have to start from scratch, and
2) Solid state flash drive is much faster than a mechanical hard drive.

Mary,
I got the fattest 11 inch air I could get with 128 gb storage and 4gb memory.
Apple makes a great product, but you pay for it but then again, you get what
you pay for. So when I purchase an apple device, I only do it if I can get the
most I can for what I want. I concur, 64 GB is hardl
Well, the commercial on tv said otherwise. It compares the macair to the
netbook as the newer smarter and lighter netbook! Heather

Marlaina,
Your comment about the IPad was interesting. I've been pondering the possible
purchase of an IPad or the Air and seeing pluses and minuses for both. I assume
you are using Pages on the Air for all that note taking? I'd be curious if
others' experiences with the bluetooth keyboard and t
You just do it through iTunes or under apple, you look for update software or
something like that. You can also link the Air to other machines with a DVD or
CD player, etc. It's no problem at all.

I don't think the Macbook Air would come with an OS that hasn't come out yet.
In order for that to happen, you would need to have a time machine that could
forward you to whenever 10.7, 10.8, ETC is released.
LOL

The basic 11 incher comes with 64 gb disk and 2 gb ram. I upgraded to 4 gb and
128 gb disk. I call it my fat air! LOL!

So when the next OS after Snow Leopard comes out, you could ask for the OS on a
USB flash drive instead of DVD?
