We've got a few Asus Zenbooks in at work for testing - I like the concept of these Core M laptops, great for people who want portability and only do simple things like web stuff and word processing but don't want to mess about with a tablet. | |

If you're in the market for a Macbook Air, I've got one for sale here: | |

New Macbook has a processor tuned for everyday tasks with maximum battery life (though not quite as hobbled as a tablet/phone as suggested above) - it performs about as well as a base-spec 2011 MacBook Air. It only has a single USB-C port which does everything - charging, connectivity etc, but you need adaptors for everything like hooking up to an external screen or whatever. Main benefit is the retina display and battery life. If all you do is web browsing, it'll do the job just fine. | |

Cheers dude! The Macbook seems to be kinda pointless in that case, though I do like the black screen surround.... | |

New MacBooks have tablet/mobile phone internals. MacBook Air uses "real" computer parts. | |

They look the same, are they...? Or just different internals? Is the Macbook more powerful than the MBA? |
